VVD-133214 with Pembrolizumab in advanced colorectal cancer

Official title: A Phase 2, Randomized, Open-label Study of VVD-133214 in COmbination With Pembrolizumab Compared to Pembrolizumab Monotherapy in Participants With Advanced Colorectal Adenocarcinoma (CRC) Harboring Microsatellite Instability (MSI) and/or Deficient Mismatch Repair (DMMR)

Run by Vividion Therapeutics, Inc. · NCT07811193 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether adding VVD-133214 to pembrolizumab helps people with advanced colorectal cancer better than pembrolizumab alone.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with unresectable or metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma that is MSI-high or dMMR, no prior systemic treatment for metastatic disease, ECOG 0-1, measurable disease, and available tumor tissue for central testing.

Probably not a fit

Patients without MSI/dMMR status, those not meeting performance or organ-function criteria, or those who cannot receive pembrolizumab may not benefit.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This phase 2 trial compares VVD-133214 plus pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in adults with unresectable or metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma that shows MSI or dMMR. Eligible participants have good performance status, measurable disease, no prior therapy for metastatic disease, and available archival tissue for central testing. The study uses RECIST 1.1 to assess response and requires adequate organ function. The trial is conducted at several U.S. cancer centers and involves collaboration between Vividion Therapeutics and Bayer.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the combination could improve tumor control and outcomes for patients whose colorectal cancer is driven by MSI/dMMR and may extend progression-free survival.

How similar studies have gone: Immunotherapy combinations in MSI/dMMR colorectal cancer have shown activity in prior studies, though this exact pairing is being evaluated here.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance-status score of 0 or 1
* Have a known microsatellite instability (MSI) and/or deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) tumor status confirmed per local standard of care (SoC), and have histologically or cytologically documented advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC)
* No prior systemic treatment for metastatic disease and not amenable to curative resection
* Participants must have documented MSI and/or dMMR tumor status determined as part of the routine diagnostic workup in a certified laboratory
* Availability of formaldehyde-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) archival tumor tissue for submission to Sponsor/central laboratory for retrospective central testing including a copy of a redacted pathology report if available
* Presence of measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1
* Adequate hematologic and end-organ function, defined using laboratory results obtained within 14 days prior to first dose of study treatment
* Females of childbearing potential must have negative serum pregnancy test before starting study treatment

Exclusion Criteria:

* Prior systemic treatment for advanced CRC. Participants may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy as long as disease progression occurred at least 12 months after the last dose of adjuvant treatment
* Prior treatment with adjuvant immunotherapy (e.g., anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2 agent, or anti-CTLA-4 agent, or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T cell co-stimulation or immune checkpoint pathways, including prior therapy with anti-tumor vaccines or other immuno-stimulatory antitumor agents, etc.)
* Known active or uncontrolled central nervous system (CNS) or brain metastases (progressing or requiring anticonvulsants or corticosteroids for symptomatic control) and/or carcinomatous meningitis
* Patients with active or history of autoimmune disease or immune deficiency that has required treatment in past 2 years
* History of malignancy other than CRC, within 5 years prior to screening. Participants with Lynch syndrome are not excluded.
* Participants requiring treatment with systemic immunosuppressive medication (such as corticosteroids) within 2 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment, or anticipation of need for systemic immunosuppressive medication during study treatment
* Participants with active hepatitis B, hepatitis C or HIV
* Participants with known Werner Syndrome (WRN)
* Prior treatment with any WRN helicase inhibitor
