About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the combination of balstilimab, botensilimab, and agenT-797 is safe and effective in treating adults with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer that is microsatellite stable (pMMR) and has spread to the liver.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* What proportion of participants experience tumor shrinkage (objective response rate) based on imaging assessments? * What side effects occur with this combination treatment, including immune-related and cytokine-related reactions?
All participants in this study will receive the combination treatment. There is no comparison group.
Participants will:
* Receive balstilimab, botensilimab, and agenT-797 in repeating 42-day treatment cycles * Undergo imaging scans (such as CT or MRI) to assess tumor response * Have blood samples collected to monitor safety and evaluate biomarkers * Provide tumor tissue samples for research * Be monitored for side effects throughout the study * Participate in follow-up visits to assess survival after treatment completion
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Adults ≥18 years of age with histologically confirmed metastatic colorectal cancer with liver metastases, including evidence of active liver disease if previously treated locally
At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1, with ≥1 target lesion in the liver
Tumor confirmed as microsatellite stable (MSS)/proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) per a FDA-approved assay (Caris MI Cancer Seek®, FoundationOne® CDx, or Tempus xT CDx).
Received ≥1 prior line of systemic therapy including fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (not necessarily in combination), and prior EGFR inhibitor or bevacizumab if eligible, unless contraindicated
Disqualifiers
Tumor is dMMR/MSI-high
Prior treatment with PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA-4 inhibitors, or other immunotherapy agents
Evidence of bowel obstruction, impending obstruction, or recent obstruction (within 3 months)
Refractory ascites requiring frequent paracentesis or recent escalation of diuretics
Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
Balstilimab (BAL)
DrugAdministered at a fixed dose of 240mg intravenously (IV) on Days 1, 15, 29 of each 42-day cycle, for up to 9 cycles.
Botensilimab (BOT)
DrugAdministered at a fixed dose of 75mg IV on Day 1 of Cycles 1 through 4. In the event of protocol-defined toxicity, the dose may be reduced to 50mg IV per protocol defined criteria.
agenT-797
DrugAdministered at a dose of 1.4 x 107 cells/kg IV on Day 1 of Cycle 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 2.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
ORR, defined as the proportion of participants whose best overall response (BOR) is either Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) per RECIST v1.1.
Secondary outcomes
Overall response rate in liver metastasis (ORLM)
ORLM, defined as the proportion of participants whose best overall response (BOR) in liver target lesions is Complete Response (CR-Liver) or Partial Response (PR-Liver) per RECIST v1.1.
Progression free survival (PFS) at 6 months (PFS6)
Proportion of participants alive and progression-free at 6 months
Progression Free Survival (PFS) at 12 months (PFS12)
Proportion of participants alive and progression-free at 12 months
Overall Survival (OS)
Defined as the time interval from date of enrollment to death from any cause.
Other outcomes
Changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from baseline during study treatment in responders and non-responders, per RECIST1.1.
Absolute and percent change from baseline ctDNA levels at scheduled post-baseline assessments (Cycle 3/Day 1, Cycle 5/Day 1, and End of Treatment).
