Brief summary

This study aims to address the unmet medical need of participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who have previously been treated with irinotecan, oxaliplatin, a fluoropyrimidine, and bevacizumab, by demonstrating an overall survival prolongation with precemtabart tocentecan (Precem-TcT) as single agent or Precem-TcT in combination with bevacizumab compared to trifluoride/tipiracil (FTD-TPI) plus bevacizumab.

Interventions

DRUGPrecemtabart tocentecan

Precem-TcT, administered, once every 3 weeks intravenously, on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.

DRUGBevacizumab

Bevacizumab, administered intravenously every 3 weeks on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle or every 2 weeks on Day 1 and Day 15 of each 28-day cycle.

DRUGTrifluridine/Tipiracil (FTD-TPI)

FTD-TPI, tablet, administered orally twice daily, on Days 1 to 5 and Days 8 to 12 of each 28-day cycle.

Inclusion criteria

* Participants with documented histopathological diagnosis of metastatic colorectal cancer, who were intolerant to, or whose disease was refractory to, or progressed after standard systemic therapies and no more than 2 previous systemic treatment regimens in the metastatic setting. * Participants must have received and progressed on no more than 2 previous systemic treatment regimens in the metastatic setting * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status less than equal to 1 * Participants must be able to swallow oral tablets, and to comply with the study requirements for all scheduled evaluations * Other protocol defined inclusion criteria may apply

Exclusion criteria

* If Adverse Events related to previous therapies have not recovered to less than Grade 1 by National Cancer Institute - Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 6.0 * Participant has a history of additional malignancy within 3 years before randomization * Participants with known brain metastases * Abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess within the past 6 months prior to randomization * Participants with ileus of more than Grade 1, or chronic inflammatory bowel disease (example ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease) and/or bowel obstruction, or participants with chronic gastrointestinal disorders that, in the Investigator's opinion, might significantly interfere with proper absorption of the study treatments * Other protocol defined

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Arm 1 and Arm 2: Overall SurvivalTime from date of randomization to death, assessed approximately up to average of 19 months
Progression Free Survival (PFS)Time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (assessed up to average of 19 months)
Objective Response (OR) According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) as Assessed by InvestigatorUp to average of 19 months
Duration of Response as Assessed by InvestigatorTime from first documentation of objective response to PD or death (assessed up to average of 19 months)
Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) and Treatment Related Adverse EventsUp to average of 19 months
Observed Concentration at End of Infusion (CEOI) PeriodAt end of infusion on Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 3 Day 1 (Arm 1 and Arm 2 only; each cycle is for 21 days)
Concentration Observed at the end of a Dosing Interval Immediately Before next Dosing (Ctrough)At end of dosing interval on Cycle1Day1,Cycle2Day1,Cycle3Day1,Cycle4Day1, Cycle5Day1,Cycle6Day1,Cycle7Day1 until treatment discontinuation(assessed up to average of 19months (Arm 1 and Arm 2 only; each cycle is for 21 days)
Number of Participants with Anti-Drug Antibody as measured by ADA assayPredose(-4to0 hours)on Cycle1Day1,Cycle2 Day1,Cycle 3Day1,Cycle4Day1, Cycle8Day1;thereafter every 4cycles until treatment discontinuation(assessed up to average of 19 months) (Arm 1 and Arm 2 only; each cycle is for 21 days)
Change from Baseline in Global Health Status, Physical, and Role Functioning Subscale Scores of European Organization for research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Core Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30)Baseline, Cycle 1 Day 1 and Day 1 of every new cycle until treatment discontinuation (assessed up to average of 19 months).EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-question tool used to assess the overall quality of life (QoL) in cancer participants. It consists of 15 domains: 1 global health status (GHS) scale, 5 functional scales (Physical, role, cognitive, emotional, social), and 9 symptom scales/items (Fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, dyspnea, sleep disturbance, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, financial impact. The EORTC QLQ-C30 GHS/QoL score ranges from 0 to 100; High score indicates better GHS/QoL. Score 0 represents: very poor physical condition and QoL. Score 100 represents: excellent overall physical condition and QoL.
