Summary

This trial will test a new cancer treatment, CYAD-101, on patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer. They will measure its safety, how it affects cancer cells, and its clinical activity.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic colorectal cancer that can't be surgically removed and has worsened after treatment. They should have had FOLFIRI chemotherapy within the last 3 months, be in good physical condition (ECOG status 0 or 1), and have organs functioning well. People with brain cancer spread, recent non-cancer experimental treatments, prior cell therapies, or certain growth factor drugs can't join.
What is being tested?
The alloSHRINK study tests CYAD-101 cells given after standard chemo (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) to see how safe they are and how they affect colorectal cancer. It measures if these special immune cells can help control the disease when combined with usual treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system's activation by CYAD-101 cells which may affect different organs, as well as typical chemo-related issues like nerve damage (limited for eligibility), fatigue, digestive problems, and blood count changes.
