  • Research summary

    This Phase Ib study will test whether adding an anti-PD1 antibody, called PDR001, to the monoclonal antibody bevacizumab and chemotherapy mFOLFOX6 (combination of 5-FU, leucovorin and oxaliplatin) better, worse or the same as just giving bevacizumab and mFOLFOX6

    This study will be open to participants who have untreated metastatic (disease spread to other part of the body) colorectal cancer which is microsatellite stable (MSS). MSS tumour is also known as tumours with chromosomal instability

    This study will consist of 2 parts:
    Part 1: Safety run-in Part
    Part 1 will determine whether it is safe to give a combination of PDR001 with bevacizumab and mFOLFOX6 and whether the combination is not causing any unbearable side effect. Approximately 6 to 20 patients will be treated in this part of the study

    The starting dose of PDR001 will be 400mg every 4 weeks as an infusion with an approved dose and schedule of mFOLFOX6 and bevacizumab. A different dosing schedule of PDR001 will be explored (400mg every 8 weeks) should starting dosing schedule of PDR001 will not be tolerated. Dose and schedule for bevacizumab and mFOLFOX6 will not change.

    Part 2: Expansion Part
    92 participants will be enrolled in this part once the safety and tolerability is confirmed in Part 1.
