Study on New Treatments and Combinations for Colorectal Cancer

Sponsor: AstraZeneca

Sponsor score: 40

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06792695

This clinical trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of new treatment combinations for patients with colorectal cancer. The study compares a new drug combination with a standard treatment to see which works better for patients with specific types of colorectal cancer.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of new treatment combinations for colorectal cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either a new combination of drugs (Volrustomig with FOLFIRI and bevacizumab) or the standard treatment (FOLFIRI with bevacizumab). The study focuses on patients with a specific type of colorectal cancer that has not spread to the liver and who have not received previous treatment for advanced cancer.

Description

This is a Phase II study conducted at multiple centers around the world. It includes a main protocol and several substudies. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:

  • Group A: Volrustomig combined with FOLFIRI (a chemotherapy regimen including irinotecan, 5-FU, and leucovorin) and bevacizumab.
  • Group B: FOLFIRI combined with bevacizumab only.

The study will compare the effects of adding Volrustomig to the standard treatment in patients with a specific type of colorectal cancer that has not spread to the liver and who have not received previous treatment for advanced cancer.
