Brief summary

There exists substantial evidence suggesting that patients diagnosed with MSI-H/dMMR colorectal cancer can derive benefits from immunotherapy in the management of advanced colorectal cancer. In cases of locally advanced colorectal cancer exhibiting microsatellite instability (dMMR/MSI-H), patients exhibit low responsiveness to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, resulting in minimal rates of complete tumor remission and downstaging. Nevertheless, initial exploratory studies, characterized by modest sample sizes, reveal a favorable therapeutic effect of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in this particular patient population. Envafolimab monoclonal antibody, the first PD-L1 antibody developed and manufactured in China, possesses noteworthy practical and societal value in the context of exploratory clinical research on neoadjuvant immunotherapy for locally advanced MSI-H/dMMR colorectal cancer patients. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of envafolimab monoclonal antibody (PD-L1) as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced MSI-H/dMMR colorectal cancer through a prospective, multi-cohort phase II clinical trial. Additionally, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of envafolimab monoclonal antibody in combination with CAPEOX as a neoadjuvant treatment regimen for locally advanced pMMR colorectal cancer.

Interventions

DRUGEnvafolimab

Upon confirming eligibility based on inclusion criteria and obtaining signed informed consent, the patient will be administered Envafolimab at a dose of 300mg every 3 weeks (Q3W) for a total of 4 cycles, starting on Day 1.

DRUGCAPEOX

The neoadjuvant treatment regimen will consist of Oxaliplatin at a dose of 130mg/m2, administered intravenously over a period of more than 2 hours on Day 1, every 3 weeks; and Capecitabine at a dose of 1000mg/m2, orally, twice daily from Day 1 to Day 14, every 3 weeks, for a total of 4 cycles.
