Study Summary

This trial is testing a new combination of drugs for people with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma who have not responded to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
Adults with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma who've had at least two prior treatments without success. They must be in relatively good health, able to follow the study plan, and willing to use effective contraception. Excluded are those with significant heart or lung issues, recent serious medical events like a stroke, uncontrolled high blood pressure, certain other cancers within 3 years, untreated brain metastases, severe allergies to trial drugs or components.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a combination of three drugs: Pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy), Binimetinib (a targeted therapy), and Bevacizumab (an angiogenesis inhibitor) on patients with advanced colorectal cancer that hasn't responded to previous treatments. It's an open-label phase II trial where all participants receive the same treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune-related reactions affecting organs; high blood pressure; bleeding or clotting problems; fatigue; skin rash; liver enzyme changes; gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea and abdominal pain; increased risk of infections due to lowered immunity.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Safety run-inExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Ten patients will be accrued to stage 1 and treated with standard doses of pembrolizumab, binimetinib and bevacizumab. If the standard doses are not tolerable and 2 or more patients experience a DLT, then patients would be enrolled in dose level -1 which would comprise of standard doses of pembrolizumab and bevacizumab but binimetinib would be at a dose lower of 30 mg PO BID. If 2 or more patients experience a DLT at dose level -1, then patients will be enrolled in dose level -2 which will comprise of standard doses of pembrolizumab and bevacizumab but a lower dose of binimetinib at 15 mg BID. Upon determination of the safety and tolerability of the treatment regimen, the study will proceed to stage 2.
Group II: Cohort BExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients will be treated with pembrolizumab, bevacizumab, and binimetinib together on day 1 of all cycles including cycle 1. Patients will start treatment with pembrolizumab, binimetinib, and bevacizumab on day 1 of all subsequent cycles.
Group III: Cohort AExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients will start with 7-day run-in of binimetinib on day -7 of cycle 1 only. Pembrolizumab and bevacizumab will then be added to binimetinib on cycle 1 day +1. Cycle 1 will end on day 21. Patients will start treatment with pembrolizumab, binimetinib, and bevacizumab on day 1 of all subsequent cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

To what extent are Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib safe for human consumption?

"Our internal evaluation gave Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib a score of two due to the data that suggests their safety but lack of evidence for efficacy in this phase 2 trial."

Answered by AI

What is the aggregate sum of participants in this study?

"The aforementioned clinical trial has concluded, having been first posted on September 17th 2018 and last updated May 12th 2022. For those seeking to enroll in other trials investigating colorectal cancer, there are currenly 1,213 studies recruiting patients; likewise for Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib treatments the number stands at 1,343 active enrolment opportunities."

Answered by AI

What maladies are Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib usually deployed to combat?

"Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib are typical treatments for unresectable melanoma. It has also been found to be beneficial in the management of microsatellite instability high, locally advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer, and patients with a heightened risk of recurrence."

Answered by AI

What have prior investigations revealed regarding the efficacy of Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib?

"Currently, 1343 clinical trials related to the drugs Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Binimetinib are active worldwide. Of those studies 209 have reached Phase 3 status. Primarily located in Rochester Minnesota is a multitude of medical centres conducting these investigations; yet there exists 54656 research sites globally running such tests."

Answered by AI

Do I meet the criteria to participate in this scientific experimentation?

"This medical trial is searching for 53 individuals of 18 years or older who have been diagnosed with colorectal cancer. To be considered eligible, the applicant must agree to sign a consent form and fulfil additional prerequisites such as: having an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0 or 1; biopsy-confirmed unresectable metastatic adenocarcinoma; progression on at least two prior therapies; white blood cell count between 2.5 and 15 × 109/L, among others."

Answered by AI

Are there any remaining vacancies for participants in this research endeavor?

"This research project has concluded its recruitment phase. The trial commenced on the 17th of September 2018 and was last updated on May 12th 2022. If seeking alternate studies, presently there are 1,213 clinical trials open to colorectal cancer patients and 1,343 admitting participants for Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, or Binimetinib treatments."

Answered by AI

Does this trial encompass individuals beyond the age of eighty-five?

"This trial is open to volunteers aged 18 up to the age of 99. For minors and seniors, there are 105 trials for those under 18 years old and 2518 studies that cater to individuals over 65."
