New treatment option for Colorectal Cancer Metastatic

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07172282
What this study is testing
What is Nelitolimod?
Nelitolimod is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for colorectal cancer metastatic.
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
- Nelitolimod is a classC toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonist that binds to TLR9 receptors on myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSCs) and helps reshape the tumor microenvironment (TME) and promote antitumor immunity. Investigators hypothesize that Nelitolimod can induce antitumor immune response in CRLM when administered regionally to the liver via a TriNav Pressure Enabled Drug Delivery (PEDD) catheter without compromising surgical feasibility or patient safety.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
