Toripalimab, bevacizumab, and irinotecan in dMMR/MSI locally advanced colorectal cancer: First-stage results from a phase 1b/2 trial.

ABSTRACT: This is the first stage of the phase 1b/2 trial evaluating the effectiveness and safety of toripalimab, irinotecan, and bevacizumab in patients with rectal cancer refusing up-front surgery or radiation therapy (rectum cohort) and patients with T4NanyM0 colon cancer (colon cohort) with deficiency of mismatch repair (dMMR) or microsatellite instability (MSI). This trial allows a doctor-patient shared decision-making process to determine whether to omit irinotecan or bevacizumab and the optimal surgery timing. The primary endpoint pathological complete response (pCR) rates in the full analysis set (FAS) and per-protocol set (PPS) are 57.1% (95% confidence interval [CI] 28.9-82.3) and 66.7% (34.9-90.1), respectively, in the colon cohort (n = 14) and 75.0% (35.6-95.5) and 100% (51.7-100.0), res
