Study summary

The prognosis of most patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) remains poor despite the advancements in chemotherapy and target therapy.

CAPability-01 trial investigated the potential efficacy of combining the programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody sintilimab with the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) chidamide with or without the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) monoclonal antibody bevacizumab in patients with unresectable chemotherapy-refractory locally advanced or metastatic microsatellite stable/proficient mismatch repair (MSS/pMMR) colorectal cancer.

Based on the previous findings of CAPability-01, we will further evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab and chidamide in combination with fruquintinib in the same setting.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Progress-free Survival(PFS)

    Time frame: 24 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    The proportion of patients with a PR or CR

    Time frame: 24 months

  2. Overall Survival (OS)

    The time calculated from enrollment until death from any cause, with living patients censored at the last known survival date

    Time frame: 24 months

  3. Disease control rate (DCR)

    The proportion of patients with a PR, CR, or SD

    Time frame: 24 months

  4. Duration of response (DoR)

    For patients who achieved a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), the time from the first tumor assessment demonstrating response until disease progression or death, whichever occurred first

    Time frame: 24 months
