Study Summary

This trial is a phase 2 study investigating the efficacy of SAR444245 in combination with other cancer treatments for patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancer. The study is composed of four sub-studies, each investigating the combination of SAR444245 with a different treatment for a different type of gastrointestinal cancer. The primary outcome measure for each sub-study is the percentage of patients experiencing an objective response.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced gastrointestinal cancers, including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, gastric cancer or gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and metastatic colorectal cancer (non-MSI-H). Participants must have measurable lesions and agree to contraception. Excluded are those with poor performance status, organ function issues, brain metastases, recent major surgery or therapy, autoimmune diseases requiring treatment in the past 2 years.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing SAR444245 (THOR-707) combined with pembrolizumab or cetuximab in various cohorts of gastrointestinal cancer patients. It aims to see if these combinations can increase the percentage of patients who respond to treatment. The study involves multiple sub-studies targeting different types of tumors.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune-related reactions due to pembrolizumab or cetuximab such as inflammation in organs; infusion reactions; fatigue; skin rash; digestive issues like diarrhea; liver enzyme elevation could occur from THOR-707.
