New treatment option for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
Official title - IKF/AIO-QUINTIS - Evaluating Fruquintinib in Combination With Tislelizumab in Microsatellite Stable / Proficient Mismatch Repair (MSS/pMMR) Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Without Active Liver Metastases
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06856837
What this study is testing
What is Fruquintinib?
Fruquintinib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer.
Also referred to as Fruzaqla.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter phase II investigating the therapy of Fruquintinib in combination with Tislelizumab in patients with MSS/pMMR metastatic colorectal cancer without liver metastases.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
