Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fruquintinib Plus Sintilimab as Third-line Therapy for Colorectal Cancer

This study is a single center, investigator initiated phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib plus Sintilimab as third-line therapy for colorectal cancer

Inclusion Criteria:

- Histological or cytological documentation of adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum. All other histological types are excluded.

Subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer(CRC) (Stage IV). Subjects must have failed at least two lines of prior treatment. Progression during or within 3 months following the last administration of approved standard therapies which must include a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan.

Subjects treated with oxaliplatin in an adjuvant setting should have progressed during or within 6 months of completion of adjuvant therapy.

Subjects who progress more than 6 months after completion of oxaliplatin containing adjuvant treatment must be retreated with oxaliplatin-based therapy to be eligible.

Subjects who have withdrawn from standard treatment due to unacceptable toxicity warranting discontinuation of treatment and precluding retreatment with the same agent prior to progression of disease will also be allowed into the study.

Subjects may have received prior treatment with Avastin (bevacizumab) and/or Erbitux (cetuximab)/Vectibix (panitumumab) (if KRAS WT) Metastatic CRC subjects must have measurable disease according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria, version 1.1.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 1. Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the laboratory required by protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Previously received anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) or its ligand (PD-L1) antibody, anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated Protein 4, CTLA-4) antibody or other drug/antibody that acts on T cell costimulation or checkpoint pathways.

Previous or concurrent cancer that is distinct in primary site or histology from colorectal cancer within 5 years prior to randomization EXCEPT for curatively treated cervical cancer in situ, non-melanoma skin cancer and superficial bladder tumors [Ta (non-invasive tumor), Tis (carcinoma in situ) and T1 (tumor invades lamina propria)].

Extended field radiotherapy within 4 weeks or limited field radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to randomization.
