Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the anti-tumor activity, as measured by overall response rate (ORR) of atezolizumab in combination with bevacizumab in patients with chemotherapy resistant CRC and positivity for MSI-like molecular signature. This is an international, open-label single arm (non-randomized), one-stage phase II trial.

Patients with documented liver metastases: AST and ALT < 5 x ULN
Patients with documented liver or bone metastases: alkaline phosphatase < 5 x ULN Bilirubin <1.5 x ULN. Patients with known Gilbert disease who have serum bilirubin level < 3 x ULN may be enrolled.

Women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test before registration.
Patients of childbearing / reproductive potential should use adequate birth control measures, as defined by the investigator, during the study treatment period and for at least 6 months after the last bevacizumab treatment (for women and men) and 5 months after the last atezolizumab treatment (for women). A highly effective method of birth control is defined as those which result in low failure rate (i.e. less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly.
Female subjects who are breast feeding should discontinue nursing before trial registration and until 6 months after the last bevacizumab treatment and 5 months after the last atezolizumab treatment.
