What is being tested

  • Biological Envafolimab

What it is measuring

pCR rate

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 3. Compares the treatment against current standard care in a large group. This is the design that changes practice.

How the researchers describe it

Short-course radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy may bring revolutionary changes to the preoperative neoadjuvant treatment mode for locally advanced rectal cancer.In view of the shortcomings of the current preoperative neoadjuvant treatment model for locally advanced rectal cancer, we will explore the feasibility of a new model of short-course radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy, and develop a possible optimal plan based on the existing theoretical basis, namely "short-course radiotherapy + PD-L1 monoclonal antibody combined with CAPEOX chemotherapy for 2 cycles", and explore the efficacy and adverse effects of this model. The study will also attempt to explore the characteristics of the treatment beneficiary population, explore the characteristics of the treatment beneficiary population by multi-dimensional tumor and microenvironmental information through multi-omics sequencing analysis, attempt to build an efficacy prediction model, early screening of the treatment beneficiary population for precise treatment, and thus explore a new model of radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy.

Who the trial is looking for

Inclusion Criteria

1. Patients who are willing to receive neoadjuvant therapy.

2. ≧18 years old.

3. Diagnosed by digital rectal examination, colonoscopy, and high-resolution MRI of the pelvis, the tumor is less than or equal to 12 cm from the anus.

4. Histologically diagnosed as rectal adenocarcinoma.

5. The clinical staging by pelvic contrast-enhanced CT and pelvic high-resolution MRI were cT2-4a N+, cT3/T4a N0.

6. MMR protein detection or MSI gene detection of rectal cancer specimens confirmed pMMR or MSS before treatment .

7. The patient has good compliance and can come to the hospital for re-examination as required.

8. ECOG Scale of Performance Status score 0-1 point.

9. Have not received anti-tumor and immunotherapy before enrollment.

10. Laboratory inspections must meet the following standards:

  • White blood cell count>3.5×109/L, absolute value of neutrophils>1.8×109/L, platelet count ≥75×109/L, hemoglobin ≥100g/L;
  • INR≤1.5, and APTT≤1.5 times the upper limit of normal or partial prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5 times the upper limit of normal;
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.25 times the upper limit of normal; ALT and AST < 5 times the upper limit of normal;
  • 24h creatinine clearance >50mL/min or serum creatinine <1.5 times the upper limit of normal.

11. Voluntarily participate in this study and sign the informed consent.

Where it is running

Running at 1 site. Listed in: China.

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 NCT05752136, registered by Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital 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.
