What is being tested

  • Biological BNT314
  • Drug Pumitamig
  • Drug SoC chemotherapy treatment 1
  • Drug SoC chemotherapy treatment 2
  • Drug Bevacizumab

What it is measuring

Phase I – Part A: Occurrence of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) during the DLT observation period

This is the trial's main question — the one it is designed and sized to answer. Anything else it reports is a secondary finding, and secondary findings are far more likely to be chance.

Phase 2. Tests whether the treatment works well enough to be worth a larger trial. Usually too small to prove it changes survival.

How the researchers describe it

This randomized, multi-site, three-part study will test a new treatment called BNT314, which is designed to help the body's own defense to fight cancer in combination with another new treatment (pumitamig, which is a cancer immunotherapy drug also known as BNT327 and PM8002) and chemotherapy in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).

Who the trial is looking for

Key Inclusion Criteria

  • Have unresectable histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum.
  • Have confirmed non-microsatellite instability-high (non-MSI-H)/pMMR mCRC per Food and Drug Administration (FDA)/European Commission (EC) approved test or based on local testing.
  • Have measurable disease defined by RECIST v1.1.
  • Must provide a tumor tissue sample (formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded or tissue slides) collected before C1D1 for enrollment. A newly obtained tumor sample is preferred. If it is not feasible to obtain a recent tumor sample, participants can provide archival tumor tissue (less than 2 years prior treatment).
  • Have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of 0 or 1.
  • Have a life expectancy of ≥12 weeks.
  • Have an adequate organ and bone marrow function within ≤7 days of Day 1 as defined in the protocol.
  • Have had an adequate previous treatment washout period before randomization/enrollment as defined in the protocol.

Inclusion criteria applicable to only protocol-specific cohorts:

  • Have histologically confirmed metastatic colorectal cancer and radiographically documented disease progression after ≥2 prior lines of systemic therapy for metastatic disease as defined in the protocol.
  • Have progressed following first-line chemotherapy as specified in the protocol.
  • Have not received prior systemic therapy for MSS/pMMR mCRC…

Where it is running

Running at 14 sites. Listed in: Germany, Japan, Spain, United Kingdom, United States.

Individual hospitals, and whether each is currently open, are listed on the registry record. Sites open and close throughout a trial.

Worth asking your oncology team

Being listed here is not a recommendation, and no one page can tell you whether a trial is right for you. These are the questions it raises.

  • Is this trial open at a hospital I could realistically travel to?
  • Given my stage, my previous treatment and my tumour's molecular profile, would I be eligible?
  • What would I be giving up by joining — is the comparison arm the treatment I would otherwise be having?
  • What is already known about the safety of what is being tested?

The source

Registry record NCT07079631, registered by BioNTech SE on ClinicalTrials.gov, a public database run by the US National Library of Medicine. The details on this page come from that record and are only ever as current as the sponsor has kept it.

This is a listing of a registered clinical trial, reproduced for information. It is not a recommendation, this site has no connection to the trial or its sponsor, and being listed here says nothing about whether the treatment works. Talk to your own oncology team before pursuing any trial.

This article summarises published research for general information. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for a conversation with your own oncology team, who know your case. Do not start, stop, or change any treatment or supplement on the basis of what you read here.
