New virus combo tackles liver metastases in colorectal cancer
NCT ID NCT06283134
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tests a new approach for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and hasn't responded to standard treatments. It combines a virus designed to attack cancer cells (BioTTT001) with two drugs (toripalimab and regorafenib). The study will enroll 60 participants to check safety and find the best dose.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- oncolytic adenovirus (BioTTT001) plus toripalimab and regorafenib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new combination treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver, potentially improving survival.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 1 trial with only 60 participants, so safety and dosing are still being explored. The treatment may not work or could cause significant side effects.
