Botensilimab + Balstilimab vs Best Supportive Care as Therapy in Chemo-refractory, Unresectable, Colorectal Adenocarcinoma
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
This study is being done to answer the main question of: Do patients with colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery, that is treated with two new immunotherapy drugs, botensilimab and balstilimab, live longer? Other important questions include: Is their quality of life better? Do their tumours slow in growth or possibly shrink in size? Are there markers in their tumour or blood that can predict whether they achieve any of these benefits? In addition, the study is done to confirm the safety of these immunotherapy drugs and to determine how long it takes for the body to metabolize them.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Must have histologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma that is not deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H). * Received and failed all prior available therapies, such that the standard of care for the patient would be best supportive care (BSC). * Must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0, or 1. * Must have presence of measurable or evaluable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST 1.1). * A life expectancy of ≥ 12 weeks at the time of study entry. * Must be ≥ 18 years of age. * Participants must consent to provision of, and investigator must agree to submit, a representative archival formalin fixed paraffin block of tumour tissue for correlative analyses when tumour tissue is available. * Participants must have adequate organ and marrow function measured within 14 days prior to randomization. * Participant is able (i.e. sufficiently fluent) and willing t
