Summary
This phase 2 trial is testing whether a combination of immunotherapy drugs (sintilimab, IBI310, and lenvatinib) can help people with non-metastatic dMMR/MSI-H stomach or colon cancers avoid radical surgery. About 34 participants will receive up to 24 weeks of treatment, and those who achieve a complete clinical response may skip surgery. The goal is to preserve the organ while still controlling the cancer.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Sintilimab, IBI310, and Lenvatinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could allow some patients with these specific cancers to avoid major surgery by using immunotherapy to eliminate the tumor.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase trial with only 34 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Immunotherapy can cause serious side effects, and not all patients will respond.
