FOLFOX and Bevacizumab in Combination With Botensilimab and Balstilimab (3B-FOLFOX) for the Treatment of Microsatellite Stable (MSS) Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
United States20 participantsStarted 2023-05-03
Plain-language summary
This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and efficacy of FOLFOX and bevacizumab in combination with botensilimab and balstilimab (3B-FOLFOX) in treating patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as FOLFOX, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Balstilimab and botensilimab are in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. They bind to proteins, called PD-L1 and CTLA-4, which is found on some types of tumor cells. These PD-1 and CTLA-4 proteins are known to affect the body's defense mechanism to identify and fight against tumor cells. The combination of these drugs may lead to improved disease control and outcomes in patients with MSS metastatic colorectal cancer.

* Assent, when appropriate, will be obtained per institutional guidelines
* Age: \>= 18 years
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) =\< 1
* Life expectancy \>= 3 months
* Patients should have a pathologically proven diagnosis of colorectal adenocarcinoma
* Histological or cytological confirmed microsatellite stable (MSS) adenocarcinoma of colon or rectum.

* Patients should not have a history of perforations or fistulas
* For the safety cohorts (phase I): Metastatic colorectal cancer with 0 to 2 prior lines of therapy prior to enrollment on study and without prior progression within 3 months from last dose of oxaliplatin, in the event of prior oxaliplatin exposure. Evidence of radiographic progression after last treatment before enrollment should be documented

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
