Adjuvant PD-1 Blockade for High-risk Stage-II DMMR/MSI-H Colorectal Cancer

Short-course PD-1 Blockade As Adjuvant Treatment for High-risk Stage-II DMMR/MSI-H Colorectal Cancer

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This open-label phase III trial investigates the efficacy of two cycles of PD-1 blockade (Tislelizumab) as adjuvant therapy to see how it works compared with standard of care (SOC) in treating patients with stage II dMMR/MSI-H colorectal cancer. The rational of giving PD-1 blockade as adjuvant therapy is based on the fact that tumor recurrence is extremely low among patients receiving neoadjuvant immunotherapy, which suggests that PD-1 blockade may likely improve patients' long-term survival. As for the short course (two cycles), we have the following considerations: firstly, the NICHE-2 trial, which adopted a two-cycle regimen, reported no recurrences during follow-up, suggesting that short-course anti-PD-1 therapy may be sufficient to improve the survival of patients with localized dMMR/MSI-H colorectal cancer. Secondly, the potential benefits of PD-1 blockade should be balanced against its toxicities, because patients with stage-II dMMR colorectal cancer generally have a good prognosis. Two cycles of PD-1 blockade have been shown to have a good safety profile, with low incidence of grade 3-4 and immune-related adverse events.
