Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this clinical trial is to learn about efficacy of fruquintinib combined with serplulimab in patients with microsatellite stabilized mCRC who have failed standard therapy. The main purpose is to explore efficacy, safety and tolerability of the treatment. At the same time, the correlation between biomarkers (including ctDNA, TPS, CPS, tumor mutation burden, lymphocyte subpopulation, cytokines, TCR, intestinal microbes, etc.) and the efficacy and drug resistance mechanism will be analyzed, which could provide reference for determining the advantaged group.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Serplulimab is an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, and fruquintinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits tumor angiogenesis. Studies have shown that immunotherapy combined with fruquintinib has preliminary efficacy in the treatment of colorectal cancer. Whether serplulimab combined with fruquintinib can improve the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer remains to be determined. Therefore, the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of serplulimab combination with fruquintinib in patients with microsatellite stabilized mCRC who have failed standard therapy.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Serplulimab+Fruquintinib

Participants will receive serplulimab 300 mg every 3 weeks (Q3W) concurrently with fruquintinib regimen: 5mg (QD) orally for 2 weeks, 1 week off, repeated every 3 weeks. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.

Drug: serplulimab
Serplulimab is an innovative monoclonal antibody targeting PD-1, developed by Shanghai Henlius Biotech, Inc. 300 mg, q3w Other name: HLX10

Drug: Fruquintinib
5mg (QD) orally for 2 weeks, 1 week off, repeated every 3 weeks until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. objective response rate (ORR) [3 years]

    The proportion of participants whose best outcome is complete remission or partial remission

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. overall survival (OS) [3 years]

    The time between the start of the participants' treatment and their death from any cause

  2. progression-free survival (PFS) [3 years]

    Time from initiation of treatment to disease progression or death from any cause

  3. adverse events [3 years]

    Assessment of the safety profile of regimen according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (NCI CTCAE v 5.0).
