Summary: Background: Microsatellite stable (MSS) and RAS-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients are characterized by an immunosuppressive microenvironment and a low response rate to immunotherapy. Chemotherapy and anti-angiogenesis therapy have been reported to potentially promote immunotherapy response. This study aims to assess the preliminary anti-tumor activity and safety of sintilimab plus bevacizumab, oxaliplatin and capecitabine as a treatment option for patients with RAS-mutant MSS mCRC. Methods: This study was an open-label, single-arm, phase II trial in China. Patients with unresectable, RAS-mutant and MSS metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma received treatment by intravenous sintilimab (200 mg, day 1) plus bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg, day 1), oxaliplatin (135 mg/m2, day 1) and oral capecitabine (1 g/m2, day 1–14) in each 21-day cycle. The primary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR) and adverse events. Biomarker analysis was performed to identify potential predictors of good response to treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT04194359. Findings: Between April 2021 and December 2021, 25 patients were enrolled. Two (8%) patients showed complete response (CR), 19 (76%) had partial response (PR) and 4 (16%) presented with stable disease. ORR reached 84% (95% CI, 63.9–95.5) and the disease control rate was 100% (95% CI, 86.3–100). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 18.2 months for the full analysis set. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) in all grades were anemia (21/25, 84%), neutropenia (20/25, 80%), and hand-foot syndrome (14/25, 56%). The most frequent grade 3 or 4 TRAEs were neutropenia (3/25, 12%) and increased alanine transaminase (2/25, 8%). No grade 5 adverse events occurred. In the exploration of biomarkers, 5 patients could be characterized as TTN/OBSCN “double-hit” after treatment, and the copy number variants burden was significantly decreased in tumor tissues after treatment compared with the baseline. Nanostring panel RNA sequencing analysis indicated a better tumor immune microenvironment cell infiltration in CR/PR patients compared with non-CR/PR patients as well as the PFS-long (≥12.5 months) group compared with the PFS-short group. Interpretation: Combination treatment with sintilimab plus bevacizumab, oxaliplatin and capecitabine as first-line treatment demonstrated a promising antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in RAS-mutant, MSS and unresectable mCRC. Exploratory biomarker assessment analysis showed that some RAS-mutant and MSS patients changed into “immune-hot” subtype after the treatment.
