Tolerability and Safety of Vemurafenib, Cetuximab Combined With Camrelizumab for BRAF V600E-mutated /MSS Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

May 12, 2022 updated by: Meng Qiu, West China Hospital

A Phase I Study on Tolerance and Safety of Vemurafenib Film-coated Tablets, Cetuximab Solution for Infusion and Camrelizumab Protocol(VCC) in the After Line Therapy of BRAF V600E Mutation/MSS Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

BRAF mutation exists in about 10-12% of colorectal cancer, among which BRAF V600E mutation is the most common type, which is an important biomarker for predicting the prognosis and precise treatment efficacy of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The prognosis of metastatic colorectal cancer with BRAF V600E mutation is very poor, with OS of about 6-9 months. Previous studies have shown that single anti-BRAF inhibitor are ineffective, while multi-target inhibitions of Ras-Raf -MEK pathway is a possible effective strategy for BRAF V600E-mutant mCRC. Currently, the proven effective regimens include the VIC regimen (Vemurafenib + cetuximab + Irinotecan) and BEACON regimen (Encorafenib+ cetuximab +/- Binimetinib) from the SWOGS1406 study. Furthermore, BRAF inhibitor +MEK inhibitor combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody has been shown to be an effective strategy in BRAF V600E-mutant malignant melanoma, which promote the study of the regimens for the treatment of BRAF V600E-mutant mCRC. Increasing basic and clinical studies have shown that cetuximab has ADCC effect, induces immunogenic cell death, promotes immune cell infiltration and other immunomodulatory effects, and has a synergistic effect with PD-1 monoclonal antibody in colorectal cancer. Based on those theories, we conducted the phase I study to explore the safety and preliminary efficacy of the regimen of Vemurafenib (BRAFi) plus cetuximab (EGFRi) combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody in BRAF V600E-mutant /MSS type mCRC.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study
