JS212 combination treatments for metastatic colorectal cancer.

An Open-label, Multicenter Phase 2 Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Efficacy of JS212 Combination Therapies in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Phase 2 Interventional Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co., Ltd. · NCT07503756

This Phase 2 trial will test whether the experimental drug JS212, given with standard chemotherapy (capecitabine with or without bevacizumab or XELOX) and sometimes the immune drug JS207, is safe and active in adults with metastatic colorectal cancer who have not had prior systemic therapy for advanced disease.

What this trial studies

This open-label, multicenter Phase 2 trial tests JS212, a bispecific antibody-drug conjugate that targets EGFR and HER3 and delivers a topoisomerase I inhibitor, given in combination with capecitabine ± bevacizumab or with XELOX ± the PD-1/VEGF bispecific JS207. A BOIN dose-escalation phase will identify the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 3 dose, followed by dose-expansion cohorts to further characterize safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary antitumor activity. Eligible patients are adults with MSS/pMMR metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma who are treatment-naïve in the metastatic setting and have measurable disease and ECOG 0–1. Key endpoints include safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and objective tumor responses per RECIST v1.1.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults aged 18–75 with histologically confirmed metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma that is MSS/pMMR, no prior systemic therapy for advanced disease, at least one measurable lesion, and ECOG performance status 0–1.

Not a fit: Patients with MSI-high/dMMR tumors, prior systemic therapy for metastatic disease, prior exposure to EGFR- or HER3-targeted ADCs, or significant uncontrolled comorbidities are unlikely to be eligible and may not benefit.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, these combinations could provide a new first-line option that improves tumor control for patients with MSS metastatic colorectal cancer.

How similar studies have performed: Early clinical data for JS212 and other ADC programs have shown promising safety and antitumor activity, but dual EGFR/HER3 targeting and combinations with PD-1/VEGF bispecifics remain relatively novel and unproven in later-stage trials.
