Study summary

This study was an observational cohort study to investigate the efficacy predictors of fuquinitinib combined with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody for third-line treatment and above in Chinese patients with advanced colorectal cancer.

Read the detailed description

Patients with histologically confirmed metastatic or unresectable MSS/MSI-L/pMMR colorectal adenocarcinoma refractory to or intolerant of fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and irinotecan based systemic treatment, were enrolled in the study. All patients will receive a third line therapy with fruquintinib and anti-PD-1 antibody. Clinical and radiographic assessment will be performed regularly. Patients will be treated until disease progression, untolerable toxicity or withdrawal of consent.

Study population

Chinese adults, both male and female, with histologically confirmed metastatic or unresectable MSS/MSI-L/pMMR colorectal adenocarcinoma refractory to or intolerant of fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and irinotecan based systemic treatment, were enrolled in the study.

  • Man and woman who childbearing potential agrees to use adequate contraception
  • Willingness to provide enough tumor tissues for PD-L1 expression test

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients could not obey the study protocol.
  • Previous therapy with VEGFR Inhibitor or anti-PD-1 antibody.
  • Other malignancy within 5 years prior to study enrolment, except for cervical carcinoma in situ, basal or squamous cell skin cancer.
  • Known brain or CNS metastases.
  • Patients with any active autoimmune disease or a documented history of autoimmune disease within 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Prior allogeneic bone marrow transplantation or prior solid organ transplantation.
  • Uncontrolled malignant ascites.
  • Clinically significant cardiovascular diseases, including but not limited to acute myocardial infarction, severe / unstable angina pectoris or coronary artery bypass grafting within 6 months before enrollment; Congestive heart failure, New York Heart Association (NYHA) grade > 2; ventricular arrhythmia requiring drug treatment; LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) \< 50%.
  • Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or any of the study drug excipients.
  • Participation in another clinical trial with any experimental drug within 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
  • Clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities judged by researchers.
  • Systolic blood pressure > 140mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 90mmHg regardless of any antihypertensive drugs.
  • Poorly controlled diabetes before enrollment.
  • Any factors that influence the usage of oral administration and patients cannot take fruquintinib orally.
  • Active gastric and duodenal ulcer, ulcerative colitis or uncontrolled hemorrhage in GI, or other conditions that may cause GI bleeding and perforation as determined by the investigator.
  • Patients with obvious evidence of bleeding tendency or medical history within 3 months before enrollment, hemoptysis or thromboembolism within 12 months.
  • Active infection or serious infection that is uncontrolled by drug (NCI CTCAE v. 5.0 Grade ≥ 2).
  • History of clinically significant hepatic disease, including hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection with HBV DNA positive (copies ≥1×104/ml or >2000IU/ml); known hepatitis C virus infection with HCV RNA positive (copies ≥1×103/ml).
  • Persisting toxicity related to prior therapy (NCI CTCAE v. 5.0 Grade > 1).
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding female patient.
  • Receive blood transfusion, blood products and hematopoietic factors such as albumin and granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) within 14 days prior to enrollment.
  • Other severe acute or chronic medical conditions including metabolic disorder, physical examination or laboratory abnormalities that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study treatment administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
  • Urinary protein ≥ ++, and the 24-hour urine protein quantification is greater than 1.0 g.
  • Use of immunosuppressive medication, or systemic/local immunosuppressive corticosteroids for complication.

Groups and cohorts

  • Fruquintinib and anti-PD-1 plus radiotherapy

    Fruquintinib is administrated as 4mg orally, once daily for 2 weeks on/1 week off. anti-PD-1 antibody is administrated as 200mg once every 3 weeks. Patients with isolated or localized metastasis will receive radiotherapy.

    Radiation: radiotherapy

  • Fruquintinib and anti-PD-1 alone

    Fruquintinib is administrated as 4mg orally, once daily for 2 weeks on/1 week off. anti-PD-1 antibody is administrated as 200mg once every 3 weeks.

Interventions

  • Radiationradiotherapy

    In radiotherapy group, the modality of radiotherapy was conventional radiotherapy (CRT) or stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for cancer.

    Also known as: drug, Fruquintinib and anti-PD-1

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease

    Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as percentage of participants achieving assessed complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) by the investigator according to the RECIST 1.1.

    Time frame: from date of randomization until the date of progressive disease or EOT due to any cause, assessed up to 1 year

  2. Adverse Event (AEs)

    Safety will be evaluated by incidence, severity and outcomes of adverse events (AEs) and categorized by severity in accordance with the NCI CTC AE Version 5.0.

    Time frame: from the date of first dose to the 30 days post the last dose

  3. Gut microbiome analysis

    To explore the association of gut microbiome and the efficacy of the treatment

    Time frame: 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequencing for the baseline fecal samples of some patients

Other outcomes

  1. Exploratory endpoint

    To identify the correlation between PD-L1 expression and inflammatory factor score with clinical outcomes

    Time frame: from date of randomization until the date of progressive disease or EOT due to any cause, assessed up to 1 year
