New treatment option for Rectal Malignant Neoplasms
Official title Iparomlimab/Tuvonralimab Integrating With Total Neoadjuvant Therapy for pMMR/MSS Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (IT-TNT)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07026422
What this study is testing
What is Total neoadjuvant therapy integrating iparomlimab/tuvonralimab with chemoradiotherapy?
Total neoadjuvant therapy integrating iparomlimab/tuvonralimab with chemoradiotherapy is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for rectal malignant neoplasms.
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
- In colorectal cancer (CRC), ICIs show strong therapeutic associations with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) status, while patients with proficient mismatch repair/microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS) tumors exhibit poor responses. Dual immunotherapy may represent a promising strategy for MSS populations.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
