About this study
Official title: Phase II, Single-arm Study of FMT Combined With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor and TKI in the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer Patients With Advanced Stage
A single-arm, phase II study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation plus Sintilimab and Fruquintinib as the later line treatment in colorectal patients with advanced stages.
Read the detailed description
The combination of regorafenib plus nivolumab had already presented a manageable safety profile and encouraging antitumor activity in patients with mCRC as the REGONIVO trail reported. While additional investigations showed limited ORRs between 7%-33% as third or later line treatement in mCRC. Gut microbiota modulation, with the aim to reverse established microbial dysbiosis, is a novel strategy for the treatment of CRC. The individualized gut microbiome transplantation may further imrpove the efficacy of the combination therapy of CPI and TKI. Thus, a single-arm, phase II study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of FMT plus Sintilimab and Fruquintinib as the later line treatment in CRC patients with advanced stages.

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 8 inclusion and 16 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 23 Aug 2022. 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 Aiping Zhou, MD (86 13691161998, zhouap1825@126.com), 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 2 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 23 Aug 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
