Scientists try to turn 'Cold' tumors 'Hot' to fight spreading colon cancer

NCT ID NCT05504252

Summary

This study is testing if a standard chemotherapy drug (oxaliplatin) can make advanced colon cancer more visible to the immune system. Researchers then add an immunotherapy drug (nivolumab) to see if this combination can stop the cancer from growing for a longer time. The trial is for 80 adults with a specific type of metastatic colon cancer who haven't had treatment for their spread disease yet. Patients receive cycles of chemo and immunotherapy, with treatment breaks if the cancer shrinks.
