RBS2418 for Colorectal Cancer
(VISTA-1 Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called RBS2418 for individuals with advanced, metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) that has worsened despite standard treatments. RBS2418 aims to enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer. Participants will receive either RBS2418 or a placebo (a non-active substance) along with the best supportive care. The study seeks individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of colorectal cancer that has progressed and is unresponsive to other treatments. As a Phase 2 trial, the research focuses on measuring the treatment's effectiveness in an initial, smaller group of people.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires that you stop any approved anti-cancer therapy, including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy, at least 2 weeks before starting the study treatment. However, hormone-replacement therapy or oral contraceptives are allowed.
Is there any evidence suggesting that RBS2418 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research has shown that RBS2418 has been well-tolerated in earlier studies. One study found RBS2418 to be very safe, even at higher doses, without causing severe side effects, suggesting it is generally safe for patients. Another study found that RBS2418, whether taken alone or with another drug, was safe and tolerable at all tested doses. These findings indicate that RBS2418 is unlikely to cause serious side effects in people.12345
Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for colorectal cancer?
RBS2418 is unique because it specifically targets ENPP1 and cGAS, proteins involved in cancer cell survival and immune system evasion. Unlike traditional colorectal cancer treatments like chemotherapy, which broadly attack rapidly dividing cells, RBS2418 aims to boost the immune system's ability to recognize and destroy cancer cells by focusing on these specific pathways. Researchers are excited about this targeted approach because it could offer a more precise treatment with potentially fewer side effects, making it a promising option for patients whose cancer cells express these proteins.
What evidence suggests that RBS2418 might be an effective treatment for colorectal cancer?
Research has shown that RBS2418, a medicine that aids the immune system, targets a protein called ENPP1 to enhance the body's tumor-fighting ability. Early studies have found that RBS2418 is safe and may reduce tumor size in various cancers, including colorectal cancer. In this trial, participants in Group A and Group C will receive RBS2418 plus Best Supportive Care. A study with patients who had advanced cancers found that RBS2418 was well-tolerated and showed promise, even for those unresponsive to other treatments. This suggests that RBS2418 could be a hopeful option for people with advanced colorectal cancer.14678
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults with advanced, metastatic, and progressive colorectal cancer. Participants should not have had previous treatments that conflict with the trial or health issues that could interfere with the study.Inclusion Criteria

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?
Interventions
- RBS2418
Trial Overview
The study tests RBS2418, a drug aiming to boost immune response against cancer by preventing breakdown of a molecule involved in activating immune cells. It's compared to a placebo to see if it's safe and effective in treating colorectal cancer.
