This phase II trial tests the effect of the botensilimab in combination with balstilimab in treating patients with stage II/III colorectal adenocarcinoma with detectable circulating tumor (ct) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the blood. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as botensilimab and balstilimab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving botensilimab and balstilimab may be an effective combination to remove any remaining microscopic cancer cells in the bloodstream in patients with stage II/III colorectal adenocarcinoma. In addition, clearing the ctDNA from the blood may serve as an early indicator of treatment response.
