Colon Cancer, PCSK9 Inhibitor, Neoadjuvant Immunochemotherapy
Conditions
Brief summary
This multicenter, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint Phase II trial assesses the efficacy and safety of tolecizumab (PCSK9 inhibitor) plus sintilimab/CapeOX chemoimmunotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for pMMR/MSS locally advanced colon adenocarcinoma .
Interventions
Tolecizumab (PCSK9 Inhibitor) 600mg, subcutaneous injection, Q6W (Weeks 1,7), 2 doses total Sintilimab (PD-1 Inhibitor) 200mg, intravenous infusion, Q3W (Weeks1,4,7,10), 4 cycles total CapeOX Regimen (Oxaliplatin + Capecitabine) Oxaliplatin 130mg/m² IV Q3W (4 cycles); Capecitabine 1000mg/m² oral twice daily, Days1-14 per cycle
1\. Oxaliplatin: 130mg/m² intravenous infusion, Q3W at Week 1,4,7,10, total 4 cycles; 2. Capecitabine: 1000mg/m² oral administration, twice daily, Days 1-14 of each chemotherapy cycle. All drugs free of charge. 2.Sintilimab 200mg intravenous infusion, administered every 3 weeks (Q3W) at Week 1, 4, 7, 10, total 4 cycles; provided free of charge by the sponsor, used for neoadjuvant immunotherapy.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Signed the written informed consent form and voluntarily participate in the study. * Pathohistologically confirmed colon adenocarcinoma with cT3c stage or above. * Aged 18 to 80 years, regardless of gender. * The lower edge of the tumor is more than 10 cm from the anus. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. * Sufficient bone marrow, liver, kidney and coagulation functions assessed by laboratory tests (in accordance with the local laboratory reference range). * No previous anti-tumor treatment for the current colon cancer (including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, surgery, etc.). * No pregnancy or lactation for female patients; male patients agree to take effective contraceptive measures during the study.
Exclusion criteria
* Previous anti-tumor treatment for the current colon cancer. * Previous use of PCSK9 inhibitors or PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. * Active autoimmune diseases or a history of autoimmune diseases. * Receiving immunosuppressant or systemic glucocorticoid therapy (except for local low-dose glucocorticoid use). * Active infection requiring systemic anti-infective treatment. * Severe cardiovascular diseases (e.g., severe hypertension, myocardial infarction, heart failure, etc.). * Fasting LDL-C \<1.0 mmol/L (39 mg/dL), only excluding extremely low levels (suggestive of cachexia/severe hepatic disease) * Complicated primary tumor (e.g., tumor perforation, intestinal obstruction without relief after intervention). * Pregnant or lactating women. * Other conditions that the investigator deems unfit for participation in the study (e.g., poor compliance, severe organ dysfunction, etc.).
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| pCR | The pCR rate will be evaluated after surgery, an average of 12 weeks | pCR was defined as the absence, from surgical samples, of malignant cells in the primary site and regional lymph nodes |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| MPR (Major Pathological Response) | MPR rate assessed postoperatively, at an average of 12 weeks | MPR is defined as ≤10% residual viable tumor cells in the primary tumor bed of the surgical specimen following neoadjuvant therapy |
| Disease-free survival | 3 years | Defined as the time from randomization to relapse or death, whichever occurred first. |
| Overall survival (OS) | 3 years | Defined as the time from randomization to date of death due to any cause according to RECIST version 1.1 recorded in the time period between randomization and disease |
| Primary tumor downstaging rate | From enrollment to 12 Weeks of treatment end | Down-staging of the resected tumour as measured by histopathological tumour diameter and stage according to the TNM staging system of AJCC (9th version). |
| R₀ (Curative) resection | Surgical operation assessment | Curative resection defined as complete tumor resection with all margins being negative. |
| Objective Response Rate (ORR) | After 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy (10 weeks) | Objective response is defined as a complete response (CR) or response (PR) according to RECIST v1.1 |
| Radiological response based on RECIST 1.1 criteria: CR, PR, SD, PD | From enrollment to 12 Weeks of treatment end | — |
