Summary

This trial is testing a combination of chemotherapy drugs, bevacizumab, and atezolizumab to treat patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic colorectal cancer that hasn't been treated systemically. They must have a certain type of tumor (dMMR or MSI-H), adequate organ function, and no recent heart issues or severe infections. Participants need to agree to use effective contraception and not be pregnant.
What is being tested?
The study tests how well a combination of chemotherapy drugs (fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, leucovorin) works with Bevacizumab and/or Atezolizumab in treating metastatic colorectal cancer. It looks at the effects on tumors that don't repair DNA mistakes well.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include fatigue, increased risk of infection, bleeding complications, allergic reactions to treatment components, high blood pressure, nerve damage symptoms like numbness or tingling in hands and feet.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm III (atezolizumab, bevacizumab, mFOLFOX6)Experimental Treatment11 Interventions
Patients receive atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 48 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on day 1, oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on day 1 cycles 1-10, leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours on day 1, and fluorouracil IV over 46-48 hours on day 1. Treatment with oxaliplatin repeats every 2 weeks for up to 10 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment of bevacizumab, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil repeat every 2 weeks for up to 48 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT with or without PET or MRI throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo collection of optional blood samples throughout the trial.
Group II: Arm II (atezolizumab)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients receive atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 48 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT with or without PET or MRI throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo collection of optional blood samples throughout the trial.
Group III: Arm I (bevacizumab, mFOLFOX6)Active Control10 Interventions
Patients receive bevacizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-90 minutes on day 1, oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on day 1 of cycles 1-10, leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours on day 1, and fluorouracil IV over 46-48 hours on days 1 and 2. Treatment with oxaliplatin repeats every 2 weeks for up to 10 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment of bevacizumab, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil repeat every 2 weeks for up to 48 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT with or without PET or MRI throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo collection of optional blood samples throughout the trial. (CLOSED TO ACCRUAL)
