ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05243862

This clinical trial is testing a new combination treatment using the PolyPEPI1018 vaccine and the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab to see if it is safe and effective for patients with colorectal cancer that has not responded to previous treatments.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring a new treatment for colorectal cancer that combines the PolyPEPI1018 vaccine with the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab. The goal is to determine if this combination is safe and can help control cancer in patients whose cancer has progressed after two or three previous treatments. Participants will receive the treatment every three weeks until their cancer shows signs of progression.

Description

This clinical trial is being conducted at multiple centers and is open to patients with colorectal cancer that has spread and is known as microsatellite stable (MSS). The study aims to evaluate the safety and initial effectiveness of combining the PolyPEPI1018 vaccine with atezolizumab. Participants will receive these treatments every three weeks until their cancer progresses. The study uses a specific design to assess how well the treatment works initially.
