Fruquintinib Plus Camrelizumab and HAIC in the Treatment of Non-MSI-H Advanced Colorectal Cancer

This is a single-center, open, double-cohort clinical study to explore the non-MSI-H type advanced colorectal cancer patients with liver metastases after the failure of first-line standard treatment with fruquintinib combined with calelizumab and HAIC.Clinically, systemic chemotherapy with 5-FU as the core, combined with irinotecan or oxaliplatin is the first-line and second-line standard chemotherapy regimen for unresectable CRLM patients, but various hepatotoxicity will occur during chemotherapy. HAIC can selectively deliver chemotherapeutic drugs to tumor cells, reduce hepatocyte toxicity, relatively preserve liver parenchyma, and increase the concentration of chemotherapy in the tumor. Tumor cells are exposed to chemotherapy for a longer time, which effectively improves the efficacy and safety of treatment. Anti-angiogenic drugs can hinder the growth of microvessels in tumors and the development of metastatic diseases. At present, multiple retrospective studies have provided evidence support. The response rate of HAIC combined with systemic targeted therapy can reach 74 % -92 %. Previous studies have suggested that anti-angiogenic drugs combined with immunotherapy is expected to be a treatment strategy for patients with advanced colorectal cancer who fail to receive standard treatment or cannot receive standard treatment. Therefore, this study investigated the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib combined with Camrelizumab and HAIC in the treatment of patients with non-MSI-H advanced colorectal cancer complicated with liver metastasis after first-line standard treatment failure.
