Serplulimab+Regorafenib +Hepatic Artery Bicarbonate Infusion in Patients With Colorectal Cancer and Liver Metastases

Serplulimab in Combination With Regorafenib and Hepatic Artery Bicarbonate Infusion for Third-line Treatment in Patients With Colorectal Cancer and Liver Metastases: a Single-center, Single-arm, Phase 2 Trial

A single-center, single-arm, phase 2 trial of Serplulimab in combination with Regorafenib and hepatic artery bicarbonate infusion for third-line treatment in patients with colorectal cancer and liver metastases. A total of 30 patients are planned to be enrolled.

Study Overview

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Conditions: Colorectal Cancer; Liver Metastases
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Serplulimab+Regorafenib; Drug: Hepatic Artery Bicarbonate Infusion

Detailed Description

This is a single-center, single-arm, phase 2 trial. Enroll 30 patients with colorectal cancer and liver metastases and failure of standard therapy. Administer serplulimab intravenously(once every two weeks)in combination with regorafenib(from the first day to the 21th day) and hepatic artery bicarbonate infusion (once every four weeks). Medication must be discontinued until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, informed consent is withdrawn, or investigator judgment is made. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR), and secondary endpoints are progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse effects (AE).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Objective Response Rate	Objective Response Rate was defined as the proportion of patients with a best objective response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST criteria (version 1.1).	From Baseline to disease progress, up to 18 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events	Safety and tolerance 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.	From Baseline to primary completion date, about 2 years
Progression free survival	Progression-free survival is defined as the time from enrollment to the first documented disease progression according to RECIST version 1.1, or to death from any cause, whichever occurred first	From Baseline to primary completion date, about 2 years
Overal survival	Time from randomization to death (from any cause)	From Baseline to primary completion date, about 5 years
