Study Details

Study Description

Brief 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.

Detailed Description

A prospective, randomized, open, single-center clinical study evaluating the efficacy (pathological response, survival outcomes) and safety of the combination of Cadonilimab and FOLFOX regimen compared to FOLFOX regimen in the treatment of locally advanced colorectal cancer with proficient mismatch-repair (pMMR) or microsatellite stable (MSS) protein expression.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Cadonilimab+FOLFOX group

Patients in this group will receive cetuximab combined with FOLFOX regimen, specifically: Cetuximab 6 mg/kg, intravenous infusion, D1; Oxaliplatin (85mg/m2), intravenous infusion, D1; Calcium folinate (400mg/m2), intravenous infusion, D1; 5-FU (400mg/m2), intravenous infusion, D1, then continuous intravenous infusion of 1200mg/(m2·d)×2d (total amount of 2400mg/m2, infusion for 46-48h) every two weeks; in the control group, qualified subjects will receive Oxaliplatin (85mg/m2), intravenous infusion, D1; Calcium folinate (400mg/m2), intravenous infusion, D1; 5-FU (400mg/m2), intravenous infusion, D1, then continuous intravenous infusion of 1200mg/(m2·d)×2d (total amount of 2400mg/m2, infusion for 46-48h) every two weeks. Imaging evaluation will be performed after 3 cycles of preoperative treatment. If the disease is resectable, surgery will be performed. If R0 resection is achieved, the preoperative regimen will continue for up to 9 cycles.

  • Active Comparator: FOLFOX group

    Patients in this group will undergo FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen, specifically: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 dissolved in 500 ml of 5% glucose solution, intravenous drip, on Day 1, in combination with calcium folinate (400mg/m2), intravenous infusion, on Day 1, and 5-FU (400mg/m2), intravenous infusion, on Day 1, followed by continuous intravenous infusion of 1200mg/(m2·d) for 2 days (total dose of 2400mg/m2, infusion for 46-48 hours), once every 2 weeks. After 3 cycles of preoperative treatment, imaging evaluation will be performed. If the disease is resectable, surgery will be performed. If R0 resection is achieved, the preoperative treatment regimen will be continued after surgery, for a maximum of 9 cycles.
