Cadonilimab + FOLFOX Versus FOLFOX in the Neoadjuvant Treatment of pMMR/MSS Locally Advanced Colorectal Cancer

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2028-11-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of the combination of Cadonilimab and FOLFOX regimen compared to FOLFOX regimen alone in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy of pMMR/MSS locally advanced colorectal cancer. The main question aims to answer are:

Question 1: Compare the pathological complete response rate between the combination of Cadonilimab and FOLFOX regimen and the FOLFOX alone.

Question 2: Compare the survival outcomes and safety between the combination of Cadonilimab and FOLFOX regimen and the FOLFOX alone.

Two groups of participants will receive different new adjuvant chemotherapy regimens, and their efficacy will be compared.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

• Histologically or cytologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma;

• Clinically diagnosed as stage II/III colorectal cancer based on CT and/or MRI (according to the 8th edition of AJCC staging);

• Sufficient tumor tissue specimens for mismatch repair protein expression or microsatellite instability testing, with mismatch repair protein expression result of pMMR, or microsatellite instability testing result of MSS;

• No prior systemic drug therapy and/or radiotherapy for colorectal adenocarcinoma;

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1;

• Normal major organ function, no severe blood, heart, lung, liver, kidney dysfunction, or immune deficiency diseases (see protocol for details);

• Expected good compliance to complete the study treatment, follow-up for efficacy and adverse reactions according to the protocol requirements.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Pathology is adenocarcinoma but mismatch repair protein expression result is dMMR, or microsatellite instability testing result is MSI-H; or pathology is other malignant tumors besides adenocarcinoma, such as squamous cell carcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, melanoma, etc.;

• Within 5 years prior to the first use of investigational drug, diagnosed with other malignant tumors, excluding effectively treated basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, and/or in situ cervical cancer and/or breast cancer effectively removed;

• Any distant metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma (according to AJCC 8th edition staging, determined as M1), including but not limited to distant lymph node metastasis, liver metastasis, lung metastasis, intraperitoneal dissemination, or malignant peritoneal effusion;

• Various severe underlying diseases and autoimmune diseases (see protocol for details);

• Unable to control recurrent bleeding or subjects who received blood transfusion within 2 weeks prior to the first use of investigational drug;
