Neoadjuvant mFOLFOX6 Chemotherapy Combined With Anti-PD-1 Therapy in MSS/pMMR Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (FIRM02 Study)

Официальное название

A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Study of Neoadjuvant mFOLFOX6 Chemotherapy Combined With Anti-PD-1 Therapy in MSS/pMMR Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (FIRM02 Study)

Обзор

This multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial (FIRM02 Study) aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitor (Serplulimab) in patients with MSS/pMMR locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). A total of 128 patients with non-metastatic, untreated, locally advanced rectal cancer will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the experimental group (64 patients) or the control group (64 patients). The experimental group will receive 6 cycles of mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy combined with 3 mg/kg of Serplulimab every 2 weeks prior to surgery. The control group will receive 6 cycles of mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy alone. The primary endpoint is the pathological complete response (pCR), and secondary endpoints include major pathological response (MPR), tumor regression grade (TRG), overall response rate (ORR), and survival outcomes (DFS, RFS, and OS). Safety will be assessed based on adverse events and post-operative complications.
