Metastatic Colorectal Cancer study: Sotevtamab vs FOLFOX

Official title Sotevtamab (AB-16B5) Combined With FOLFOX as Neoadjuvant Treatment Prior to Resection of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06225843

What this study is testing

What is Sotevtamab?

Sotevtamab is an investigational injectable medicine being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer. It is designed to block a protein called tumor-associated secreted clusterin to help stop cancer cells from changing shape and spreading.

Also referred to as AB-16B5.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study is testing whether a new drug called Sotevtamab works with chemo. It aims to shrink liver tumors before surgery.
Who it's for
You may be able to join if you have colon cancer that has spread to your liver.
What's involved
You would get Sotevtamab (a new cancer drug) once a week. You would also get FOLFOX (a chemo mix) every two weeks.
Time commitment
You would get treatment for six weeks before having surgery.
