What is being tested

  • Drug INCA33890
  • Drug Placebo
  • Drug Bevacizumab
  • Drug FOLFOX

What it is measuring

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

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.

What this trial is trying to do

The trial asks whether adding INCA33890 to standard first-line chemotherapy (FOLFOX) and bevacizumab can control metastatic microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer better than chemotherapy and bevacizumab alone. The available description does not state how INCA33890 is intended to work.

Researchers will compare the combination with standard treatment plus placebo, looking mainly at whether it delays cancer growth, measured as progression-free survival, while also assessing safety. It will also measure whether adding INCA33890 causes more or fewer side effects than standard treatment alone.

Worth knowing: This is restricted to metastatic microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer, and its main measure is time before the cancer grows rather than how long people live overall.

Written from the trial's own registry entry to explain what the researchers are testing and why. Nothing here is a result — this trial has not reported one — and it is not a view on whether the treatment works or on whether it would suit you.

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

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of standard-of-care chemotherapy and bevacizumab with or without INCA33890 in the first-line treatment of metastatic microsatellite stable colorectal cancer.

Who the trial is looking for

Inclusion Criteria

  • Stage IV colorectal adenocarcinoma not amenable to curative resection.
  • No prior systemic treatment for unresectable or metastatic disease. Participants who received adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy may enroll if there was no recurrence within 12 months of the end of treatment.
  • Measurable disease per RECIST v1.1.
  • ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Adequate organ function determined by laboratory results.

Exclusion Criteria

  • MSI-H/dMMR per historical data in the medical record.
  • BRAF V600E mutation per historical data in the medical record.
  • Untreated and/or progressing CNS metastases.
  • History of other malignancy within 2 years.
  • Treatment with an anti-PD-(L)1 or other immune checkpoint inhibitor for any indication within the last 3 years.
  • Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years.
  • Significant concurrent and/or uncontrolled medical condition.
  • History of organ transplant, including allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply.

Where it is running

Running at 254 sites. Listed in: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Georgia, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Puerto Rico, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, 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?
