  • Active infection requiring systemic therapy. Previous or ongoing administration of systemic steroids for the management of an acute allergic phenomenon is acceptable as long as it is anticipated that the administration of steroids will be completed in 14 days, or that the daily dose after 14 days will be ≤ 10 mg per day of equivalent prednisone.
  • Known severe hypersensitivity to investigational product or any component in its formulations, including known severe hypersensitivity reactions to monoclonal antibodies (NCI CTCAE v 5 Grade ≥ 3), any history of anaphylaxis, or uncontrolled asthma (that is, 3 or more features of partially controlled asthma).

  • Persisting toxicity related to prior therapy of Grade > 1 NCI- CTCAE v 5.0. Known alcohol or drug abuse. Clinically significant (that is active) cardiovascular disease: cerebral vascular accident/stroke (<6 months prior to enrollment), myocardial infarction (<6 months prior to enrollment), unstable angina, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Classification Class ≥ II), or serious uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication.
  • History of keratitis, ulcerative keratitis or severe dry eye. Since contact lent use is also a risk factor for keratitis and ulceration, it is not recommended.
  • Other severe acute or chronic medical conditions including immune colitis, inflammatory bowel disease, immune pneumonitis, pulmonary fibrosis or psychiatric conditions including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation or behavior; or laboratory abnormalities that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study treatment administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
  • Legal incapacity or limited legal capacity.

About this study

Official title: ICE Study: a Clinical Study of the Combination of Irinotecan Plus Cetuximab and Envafolimab as a Rechallenge Regimen in mCRC

This is a non-profit phase II, open, clinical study of the combination of irinotecan plus cetuximab and envafolimab as a rechallenge regimen, in pre-treated RAS/BRAF wild type metastatic colorectal cancer patients (according to liquid biopsy at baseline). Patients have been treated in front lines with irinotecan and cetuximab and had a clinical benefit (complete or partial response) from both of them, no matter whether they had treated by any PD-1 inhibitor before.

Read the detailed description

This is a non-profit phase II, open-label, clinical study of the combination irinotecan plus cetuximab and envafolimab as a rechallenge regimen, in pre-treated RAS/BRAF wild type metastatic colorectal cancer patients (according to liquid biopsy at baseline). Patients have been treated in front lines with irinotecan and cetuximab and had a clinical benefit (complete or partial response) from both of them, no matter whether they had treated by any PD-1 inhibitor before.

30 patients will be treated with irinotecan plus cetuximab and envafolimab. For each patient, before treatment, a blood sample will be obtained and analyzed for circulating free tumorDNA, to identify RAS/BRAF wild type patient to be enrolled.

The same procedure will be performed at progression of the disease. Treatment will continue until:

disease progression. significant clinical deterioration any criterion for withdrawal from the trial or trial drug is fulfilled treatment may continue past the initial determination of disease progression according to RECIST 1.1. if the subject's performance status has remained stable, and if in the opinion of the Investigator, the subject will benefit from continued treatment and if other criteria are fulfilled as outlined in the protocol, that is, no new symptoms or worsening of existing symptoms and no decrease in performance score.

Being tested
irinotecan, cetuximab, envafolimab

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing irinotecan, cetuximab, envafolimab in people with RAS Mutation and Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Beijing Hospital 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 7 inclusion and 17 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Yingying Huang (86 010 85136715, yinghh@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progression free survival (time frame: from screening up to 36 months (from the start of therapy until disease progression or death due to any cause). 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 28 Jul 2026.
