Study on STC-1010 and Drug Combination for Patients with Advanced or Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

2 1 1 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial is focused on studying a type of cancer known as unresectable locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer. This means the cancer has spread to other parts of the body and cannot be removed through surgery. The trial is testing a new treatment called STC-1010, which is a form of immunotherapy. Immunotherapy is a treatment that helps the body’s immune system fight cancer. The study will also use other medications, including ENDOXAN (containing anhydrous cyclophosphamide), CALCIUM FOLINATE, FLUOROURACIL, and OXALIPLATIN, which are commonly used in chemotherapy to treat cancer.

The purpose of this study is to understand the safety and effectiveness of the STC-1010 treatment when used alongside standard care for patients with this type of colorectal cancer. The study will be conducted in two phases. In the first phase, the focus will be on determining the safety of the treatment and finding the right dose. In the second phase, the study will look at how well the treatment works in controlling the cancer. Participants will receive the treatment and be monitored over time to see how their cancer responds.

Throughout the study, participants will receive regular check-ups and tests to monitor their health and the progress of the cancer. The study aims to provide valuable information on whether this new treatment can be a safe and effective option for people with advanced colorectal cancer. The trial is expected to continue for several years to gather comprehensive data on the treatment’s impact.

1 initial treatment phase

The trial begins with the administration of ENDOXAN (anhydrous cyclophosphamide) in the form of a coated tablet. This medication is taken orally.

The dosage and frequency of ENDOXAN will be determined by the healthcare provider based on individual patient needs and trial protocols.

2 combination therapy

Following the initial treatment, a combination of medications is administered intravenously. This includes CALCIUM FOLINATE, FLUOROURACIL, and OXALIPLATIN.

The specific dosages and schedule for these medications will be provided by the healthcare team, tailored to the patient’s condition and response to treatment.

3 immunotherapy administration

The trial includes the administration of STC-1010, an immunotherapy, given intradermally. This is part of the investigational treatment regimen.

The frequency and duration of STC-1010 administration will be guided by the trial protocol and monitored by the healthcare team.

4 supportive care

Throughout the trial, Leukine (sargramostim) may be administered intradermally to support the immune system.

The healthcare provider will determine the need for Leukine based on the patient’s response to treatment and overall health status.

5 monitoring and evaluation

Regular monitoring of health status, including blood tests and imaging, will be conducted to assess the effectiveness of the treatment and any side effects.

The healthcare team will evaluate the patient’s progress and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan as needed.

6 end of treatment and follow-up

Upon completion of the treatment phase, follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor long-term health outcomes and any delayed side effects.

The duration of follow-up will be determined by the trial protocol and the healthcare provider’s assessment.

Trial locations

STC-1010 is an immunotherapy being tested in patients with colorectal cancer that cannot be surgically removed and has spread to other parts of the body. This treatment aims to help the body’s immune system recognize and attack cancer cells more effectively.

IS regimen refers to a supportive treatment used alongside STC-1010. It is designed to enhance the immune system’s response to the cancer, working together with the main immunotherapy to improve its effectiveness.

SOC therapy stands for Standard of Care therapy, which includes the usual treatments given to patients with colorectal cancer. This can involve chemotherapy, radiation, or other established methods that are typically used to manage this type of cancer. In this trial, SOC therapy is combined with STC-1010 and the IS regimen to evaluate the overall treatment effectiveness.

Colorectal Cancer – Colorectal cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the colon or rectum, parts of the large intestine. It often starts as small, noncancerous clumps of cells called polyps that form on the inside of the colon or rectum. Over time, some of these polyps can become cancerous. The disease can be locally advanced, meaning it has spread to nearby tissues, or metastatic, meaning it has spread to other parts of the body. Symptoms may include changes in bowel habits, blood in the stool, and abdominal discomfort. The progression of the disease can vary, with some cases remaining localized while others spread more aggressively.
