Summary

This trial is studying regorafenib in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab to see if it can help to treat patients with colorectal cancer that has spread and is resistant to chemotherapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic colorectal cancer that's stable at the microsatellite level and hasn't responded to chemotherapy. Participants should have a good performance status, acceptable organ function tests, measurable disease, and no prior treatment with the study drugs. They must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and agree to use contraception.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of Regorafenib (a growth inhibitor), Ipilimumab, and Nivolumab (both immune system boosters) in patients whose colorectal cancer has spread and resisted chemotherapy. It aims to find the safest dose while observing how well these drugs work together against cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include fatigue, high blood pressure, diarrhea, skin reactions, liver enzyme changes, immune-related conditions like inflammation in organs or glands (thyroiditis), potential infections due to lowered immunity, and infusion-related reactions.
