About this study

Official title: Fruquintinib Combined With PD-1 Antibody in pMMR / MSS Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (LARC) With High Immune Score: an Open-label, Multi-center, Phase II Clinical Trial

This is a prospective, one arm phase II study aimed to observe the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab combined with fruquintinib in treatment of patients with pMMR / MSS locally advanced rectal cancer with high immune score.

Read the detailed description

48 patients of pMMR / MSS locally advanced rectal cancer with high immune score will be administered with tislelizumab (200mg IV d1, Q3W ) combined with fruquintinib (5mg QD d1-d14, Q3W) with a total of 2 cycles as neoadjuvant therapy. After TME, tislelizumab and fruquintinib will be given again for up to 6 months as adjuvant therapy. If the patient after neoadjuvant therapy is evaluated as SD/PD, the neoadjuvant therapy will be converted to neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy/chemotherapy or palliative therapy, and then the patient will be treated according to the norms of adjuvant therapy for rectal cancer if TME is performed. If the patient choose Watch \& Wait when evaluated as CR, tislelizumab plus fruquintinib for at least one year is requested.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Fruquintinib plus Tislelizumab in people with Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site 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 12 inclusion and 20 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 4 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 Pei-Rong Ding, M.D. (8602087343920, dingpr@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ORR (time frame: up to 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 4 Aug 2021.
