Brief Summary

The SERPENTINE trial (ESR 21-21165) is a phase II clinical study aiming to evaluate the efficacy of durvalumab and tremelimumab, alone or in combination, in patients with colorectal or endometrial cancer. The trial targets patients with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors and those with microsatellite stable (MSS) tumors. Colorectal and endometrial cancers present significant challenges due to their heterogeneity and variable responses to treatment. Immunotherapy, particularly checkpoint inhibitors like durvalumab and tremelimumab, has shown promise in some patients, but predicting response remains elusive. The SERPENTINE trial aims to address this gap by investigating the effectiveness of these immunotherapies in a carefully selected patient population.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluation of Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Assess the objective response rate (ORR) of Durvalumab or Tremelimumab 300 mg single dose followed by Durvalumab in patients with microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer (CRC) or endometrial cancer (EC) and Tremelimumab 300 mg single dose followed by Durvalumab in refractory microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC and EC according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.

    From treatment initiation until objective response confirmation or progression of disease (24 months).

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Antitumor Activity Assessment (PFS)

    Throughout the study duration (24 months).

  • Antitumor Activity Assessment (OS)

    Throughout the study duration (24 months).

  • Antitumor Activity Assessment (DoR)

    Throughout the study duration (24 months).

  • Antitumor Activity Assessment (TTMR)

    Throughout the study duration (24 months).

  • Antitumor Activity Assessment (irRR)

    Throughout the study duration (24 months).

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Control arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this arm receive Durvalumab alone. Durvalumab is administered intravenously (IV) at a dose of 1500 mg every 4 weeks. This arm is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Durvalumab monotherapy in patients with colorectal or endometrial cancer.

Drug: Durvalumab

MSI arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this arm receive a combination of Durvalumab and Tremelimumab. They initially receive Tremelimumab as a single dose of 300 mg IV, followed by Durvalumab administered at a dose of 1500 mg IV every 4 weeks. This arm aims to assess the efficacy and safety of combining Durvalumab with Tremelimumab in patients with colorectal or endometrial cancer.

Drug: DurvalumabDrug: Tremelimumab

MSS arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients in this arm also receive a combination of Durvalumab and Tremelimumab. Similar to Cohorte 1B, they receive Tremelimumab as a single dose of 300 mg IV, followed by Durvalumab administered at a dose of 1500 mg IV every 4 weeks. However, patients in this arm have tumors with microsatellite stability (MSS), unlike Cohorte 1B where patients have tumors with microsatellite instability (MSI). This arm aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Durvalumab and Tremelimumab combination in patients with MSS tumors.

Eligibility Criteria

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol. Written informed consent and any locally required authorization (e.g., Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act in the US, European Union \[EU\] Data Privacy Directive in the EU) obtained from the patient/legal representative prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including screening evaluations.

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Cohort 1: histologically confirmed recurrent or metastatic CRC or endometrial cancer irrespective of prior treatment history with chemotherapy and/or targeted agents, not amenable to surgery and known tumor MSI-H or dMMR status per local standard of practice.
  • Cohort 2: histologically confirmed recurrent or metastatic CRC not amenable to surgery and known tumor MSS or pMMR status per local standard of practice, that have progressed during or after, at least 2 lines of fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan and/or oxaliplatin containing therapy with or without bevacizumab according to institutional practice or have not tolerated therapy for advanced/metastatic disease; if epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) positive/RAS wild type, prior anti-EGFR treatment is required.
