Summary

This study tested whether the immunotherapy drug nivolumab, alone or with other drugs, can shrink tumors in people with colon cancer that has returned or spread. It included 385 participants whose tumors had a specific genetic feature called MSI-H or were non-MSI-H. The goal was to see if the treatment could reduce tumor size meaningfully.
