Clinical Trial Summary

In this exploratory study, patients with stage 1-3 adenocarcinoma of the colon with no signs of distant metastases will be treated with short-term immunotherapy + novel IO combinations (i.e. anti-IL 8, COX2-inhibitors). This treatment will be given during the window period until surgical resection of the tumor. The duration of treatment will be approximately 6 weeks.


Clinical Trial Description

In this multi-center, open-label, exploratory study, the investigators will enroll 60 patients within two years, including 30 patients with MSS tumors and 30 patients with MSI tumors. Patients with MSS tumors will be randomized to either group 1 or 2. Patients with MSI tumors will all be allocated to group 1. Patients in group 1 will be treated with a single dose of ipilimumab 1mg/kg on day 1 and two cycles of nivolumab 3mg/kg on day 1 and 15, respectively. Patients in group 2 will be treated with a single dose of ipilimumab 1mg/kg on day 1, two cycles of nivolumab 3mg/kg one day 1 and 15 and celecoxib daily until the day before surgery. The study was amended in May 2020 to enroll an additional 70 patients in the MSI cohort after the first 30 patients, making a total of 100 patients with MSI tumors. A formal sample size calculation and primary endpoint of 3-year disease-free-survival (DFS) for this group was added. The study was amended in July 2021 to add a new cohort, cohort 4, for patients with pMMR/MSS tumors. Once accrual of 30 evaluable patients in group 2 was completed, a new cohort opened in which patients will receive nivolumab plus anti-IL8 (BMS-986253). The study was amended in November 2022 to add cohort 5 and 6, both in which patients will receive nivolumab plus relatlimab (anti-LAG3). Patients with pMMR/MSS tumors will be randomized 1:1 between cohort 4 and cohort 5, patients with dMMR/MSI tumors will be enrolled in cohort 6. Accrual for cohort 4 was reached in July 2023. In April 2024, accrual for cohort 6 was reached. Per April 2024 only cohort 5 is open for recruitment. ;
