About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Toripalimab (JS001) Plus Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Colorectal Cancer Patients With Oligometastasis

Metastatic colorectal cancer is one of the common malignant tumors and the overall prognosis is poor. The introduction of immune-checkpoint inhibition (ICI) has led to a paradigm shift in the treatment of patients with metastatic cancer. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) delivers a large dose of radiation to the tumor target with high precision while sparing irradiation of the surrounding normal tissues. It is suggested that SBRT could be the most appropriate radiotherapy modality to be combined with immunotherapy since it induces the expression of a series of cytokines and new tumour-associated antigens (TAAs) and is more likely to cause intense immune response and exert an abscopal effect than conventional radiotherapy.

Thus, this study is to explore the use of SBRT in combination with ICI in colorectal cancer patients with oligometastasis, in order to get better local and systemic tumor control and improve progress-free survival (PFS).

Read the detailed description

The investigators plan to recruit patients with mCRC, who have received first-line systemic therapy for more than 3 months and achieved PR/SD. Than all the patients will receive SBRT followed by ICI therapy.

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Toripalimab and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in people with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 3 sites in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jing Jin, M.D (+86-1087787568, jingjin1025@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

1 year Progression-Free-Survival (PFS) (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03927898, which also lists 11 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Apr 2019.
