Serplulimab Combined With CAPEOX + Celecoxib as Neoadjuvant Treatment for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Sponsor: Zhejiang University
Summary
Colorectal cancer of Mismatch Repair-proficient (pMMR)/ Microsatellite Stability (MSS) accounts for approximately 85% of all colorectal cancer patients, which might be insensitive to immunotherapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy, such as CAPEOX regimen, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Celecoxib, a COX-2 inhibitor, can improve the immune microenvironment and have a potential to synergy with immunotherapy. Chemotherapy can improve the immunogenicity of cancer cells that might enhance the efficacy of immunotherapy. The aim of this study is to explore whether chemotherapy and cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors combined with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) could improve efficacy for resectable colorectal cancer patient with the pMMR/MSS phenotype.

Interventions
Serplulimab
Serplulimab is an innovative monoclonal antibody targeting PD-1, developed by Shanghai Henlius Biotech, Inc. 300 mg, q3w. For the timing of serplulimab, there is a subgroup developed, all enrolled patients will be divided into 2 subgroups in 1:1 ratio, the fasting group and the control group. For the fasting group patients, fasting starts from 8 p.m. the day before treatment and concludes at 12 p.m. on the treatment day, water is allowed. For the control group patients, they have meals according to their habits.
