Current inclusion criteria as of 05/08/2020:
1. Histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic MSS CRC with class II expression (greater than 1% cancer cell positivity for class II expression on immunohistochemistry)
2. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
3. Age > = 18 years
4. Patients must have completed all standard of care therapy that the treating oncologist deems appropriate. Trial treatment as first-line therapy is permitted if the patient has declined standard of care therapy
5. CT scan of chest, abdomen, pelvis within 28 days of registration demonstrating uni-dimensionally measurable disease as per RECIST version 1.1
6. Demonstrate adequate haematological function:
6.1. Platelet count > = 100 x 109 /L
6.2. Neutrophils > = 1.5 x 109/L
6.3. Haemoglobin > = 90 g/L
7. Demonstrate adequate hepatic function:
7.1. Serum bilirubin < = 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
7.2. Serum AST or ALT < = 2.5 x ULN or < 5 x ULN in the presence of liver metastases
8. Demonstrate adequate renal function:
8.1. Creatinine clearance < 1.5 times ULN and > 30ml/min (as per institutional standard)
9. Provision of signed and dated, written informed consent prior to any trial-specific procedures, sampling and analyses.
10. Negative pregnancy test (female patients of reproductive potential)
11. Patients must agree to the use of contraception
Previous inclusion criteria:
1. Histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic MSS CRC with strong class II expression (greater than 50% cancer cell positivity for class II expression on immunohistochemistry)
2. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
3. Age > = 18 years
4. Patients must have completed all standard of care therapy that the treating oncologist deems appropriate. Trial treatment as first-line therapy is permitted if the patient has declined standard of care therapy
5. CT scan of chest, abdomen, pelvis within 28 days of registration demonstrating uni-dimensionally measurable disease as per RECIST version 1.1
6. Demonstrate adequate haematological function:
6.1. Platelet count > = 100 x 109 /L
6.2. Neutrophils > = 1.5 x 109/L
6.3. Haemoglobin > = 90 g/L
7. Demonstrate adequate hepatic function:
7.1. Serum bilirubin < = 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
7.2. Serum AST or ALT < = 2.5 x ULN or < 5 x ULN in the presence of liver metastases
8. Demonstrate adequate renal function:
8.1. Creatinine clearance < 1.5 times ULN and > 30ml/min (as per institutional standard)
9. Provision of signed and dated, written informed consent prior to any trial-specific procedures, sampling and analyses.
10. Negative pregnancy test (female patients of reproductive potential)
11. Patients must agree to the use of contraception
1. Previous treatment with PD1/PDL1 inhibitors
2. Untreated symptomatic brain or leptomeningeal metastatic disease
3. Medical or psychiatric conditions compromising informed consent
4. Any medical condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the ability of the patient to participate in the trial or which would jeopardise compliance with the protocol
5. Administration of chemotherapy, radioactive or biological cancer therapy within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of trial therapy
6. Patient has not recovered to CTCAE grade 1 or better from the Adverse Event (AE) due to cancer therapeutics administered more than 4 weeks earlier
7. Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g. thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment
8. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment. Replacement therapy (e.g. thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment
9. Patient has risk factors for bowel obstruction or bowel perforation (examples include but not limited to a history of acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess and abdominal carcinomatosis)
10. Patient has a known history of other malignancy, unless the patient has undergone potentially curative therapy with no evidence of that disease for 3 years
11. Has a history of non-infectious pneumonitis requiring steroids or has active pneumonitis or significantly reduced transfer coefficient (KCO)
12. Female patients that are either pregnant or breastfeeding
13. Male and female patients (of childbearing age) not willing to use adequate contraception
14. Patient previously had a severe hypersensitivity reaction to treatment with another monoclonal antibody
15. Patient is positive for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) (HIV 1/2 antibodies), active Hepatitis B (HBsAg reactive) or Hepatitis C (HCV RNA (qualitative) is detected); patients with negative Hepatitis C antibody testing may not need RNA testing
16. Known history of tuberculosis
17. Patient has an active infection requiring therapy
18. Has received a live vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment
19. Patient is, at the time of signing informed consent, a regular user (including recreational use”) of any illicit drugs or had a recent history (within the last year) of substance abuse (including alcohol)
