Inclusion criteria

  1. confirmed and/or unresectable colorectal cancer (CRC).
  2. Documentation of a kirsten rat sarcoma virus gene (KRAS) or neuroblastoma-RAS (NRAS) mutation in exon 2, 3, or 4 in primary tumor or metastasis, assessed by a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-certified laboratory.
  3. Age ≥ 18 years.
  4. Participants with tumors that have progressed on an oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine--based regimen with or without bevacizumab.

    1. Participants must have had systemic therapy within 180 days of the screening visit.
    2. Participants must have, at any time previously, received oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab (≥ 6 weeks in duration).
    3. Participants who received oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine-based , adjuvant, and/or fluoropyrimidine maintenance or adjuvant therapy and have disease recurrence or progression > 6 months from their last dose of oxaliplatin will be required to have received oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine-based therapy with or without bevacizumab as treatment for metastatic disease.
    4. Participants who received an oxaliplatin-based regimen in the first-line setting and discontinued oxaliplatin because of toxicity or who received oxaliplatin for maintenance therapy are eligible as long as progression occurred \< 6 months after the last dose of oxaliplatin therapy for advanced metastatic disease. It is recommended that these participants be re-challenged (if feasible) with oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine therapy and subsequently progress prior to eligibility. Participants with oxaliplatin-related neuropathy or oxaliplatin infusion-related that cannot be rechallenged with oxaliplatin are eligible.
  5. Participants must not have received prior treatment with irinotecan.
  6. FOLFIRI therapy is appropriate for the participant as determined by the Investigator.
  7. Imaging computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of chest/abdomen/pelvis or other scans as necessary to document all sites of disease performed within 28 days prior to the first dose of onvansertib. Only participants with as defined per Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) are eligible for enrollment. CT is the preferred imaging modality, but MRI is also accepted. All subsequent scans must consistently use the same imaging modality for comparison with the Screening scan throughout the study.
  8. Must have acceptable organ function
  9. Signed to provide blood sample(s) for specific correlative assays

  2. Anti-cancer chemotherapy or biologic therapy administered within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug. The exception is a single dose of radiation up to 8 Gray (equal to 800 RAD) with palliative intent for pain control up to 14 days before enrollment, provided it is not the target lesion.
  3. More than 1 prior chemotherapy regimen administered in the setting.
  4. Major surgery within 6 weeks prior to enrollment.
  5. Untreated or symptomatic .

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(16)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

Metastases

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.

Adjuvant and neoadjuvant

Neoadjuvant treatment is given before the main treatment (usually surgery), often to shrink a tumour. Adjuvant treatment is given after it, to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.

Line of therapy

A line of therapy is one course of treatment, which may combine several drugs. First-line is the first course given; second-line follows when that stops working or is not tolerated.

“Two prior lines” means two courses that count separately under the study’s rules — not simply two drugs. Ask the study team if you are unsure how yours are counted.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Measurable disease

The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.

The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.

RECIST

The standard rules for measuring tumours on CT or MRI scans, to tell whether a cancer is shrinking, stable or growing during treatment.

“Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1” usually means at least one tumour 10 mm or more at its longest on a CT scan, or a lymph node 15 mm or more across its short axis.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Brain metastases

Cancer deposits in the brain from a cancer that started elsewhere in the body (CNS metastases include the spinal cord).

Studies differ: some leave out any brain metastases, some accept ones treated and stable for some weeks. Check what this study allows.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

QT and QTc

On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.

The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

CYP3A (CYP3A4) inhibitors and inducers

CYP3A is a group of enzymes, mainly CYP3A4, in the liver and gut that break down many medicines. Some medicines, supplements and foods (grapefruit, St John’s wort) slow them down or speed them up, which changes how much of a study drug stays in the body.

Studies list them so they can be avoided or switched; bring a list of everything you take, including supplements.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
