Study Summary

This trial is testing the safety and side effects of a combination of two drugs, Regorafenib and Nivolumab, in people with metastatic colorectal cancer. Researchers want to find out if this combination can help people with a certain type of cancer, called metastatic colorectal cancer with mismatch repair (MMR) proficiency.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with colorectal cancer that's spread and doesn't respond to standard treatments. They should be relatively healthy otherwise, able to perform daily activities with little or no help (ECOG score 0-1), and have not had certain other treatments recently. Women who can have children must test negative for pregnancy and use birth control, as must men.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
Researchers are testing the combination of two drugs, Regorafenib and Nivolumab, to find the safest high dose for metastatic colorectal cancer patients whose tumors repair DNA normally (MMR proficient). The goal is also to see if this drug combo helps against their cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include fatigue, weakness, high blood pressure, hand-foot skin reactions from Regorafenib; immune-related issues like inflammation in organs or skin problems from Nivolumab. Each person may experience side effects differently.
