Purpose

This clinical trial will be conducted as a single-center, open-label, Phase I/2 trial to evaluate the feasibility and safety of Yttrium-90 radioembolization (Y90-RE) in combination with a fixed dose of of immunotherapy (durvalumab - 750 mg) in subjects with liver-predominant, metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), which is mismatch repair proficient/microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS).

Detailed Description

      The purpose of this clinical trial is to find out more about the side effects of
      immunotherapy with a form of radiation treatment for the cancer in the liver called
      Yttrium-90 RadioEmbolization (Y90-RE). An immunotherapy drug, durvalumab, will be given
      intravenously every 2 weeks. Investigators are studying what doses of durvalumab are safe for
      people in combination with this form of radiation treatment. Patients in this study will
      receive durvalumab, which is experimental and not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
      Administration (FDA) for metastatic colorectal cancer. Microscopic radioactive particles
      (TheraSphere®) will be used for radioembolization to deliver the Y90 drug to the liver.

      The number of doses of the immunotherapy drug (range: 2 to 5) will depend on the cohort
      patients are assigned to. There is no placebo. Everyone on the study is treated with
      immunotherapy alongside Y90-RadioEmbolization.

Y90-RE in combination with immunotherapy (durvalumab)ExperimentalThe treatment phase starts of with the immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) - "priming doses" every 2 weeks prior to patient getting mapped and ready for treatment with Y90-RadioEmbolization. Post-Y90-RE, treatment is approximately 2 months in combination with fixed doses (750 mg) of durvalumab. The number and timing of doses of durvalumab each patient will receive will depend on the dose level the patient is assigned to (range 2-5 doses of immunotherapy). A single patient will be treated per dose level until the first dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is recorded. Once the first DLT is recorded, two additional patients are treated at the same dose level and the trial reverts to a standard 3+3 design. Up to 6 patients will be treated at each dose level. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be defined as the highest dose level for which at most 1 out of 6 patients experience a DLT.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Age ≥18 years

          -  Histological or cytological confirmation of colorectal cancer with metastasis to the
             liver. Mismatch repair or microsatellite instability status of the tumor needs to be
             known. Tumors need to be mismatch repair proficient (for mismatch repair deficient
             tumors immunotherapy is already approved).

          -  Patient must have at least 1 liver lesion measurable as defined in the protocol

          -  Must have liver metastases and be appropriate for treatment with Y-90
             radioembolization therapy as determined by the treating medical oncologist and
             interventional radiologist/oncologist, and nuclear medicine physician(s). NOTE: the
             goal of therapy is safety and parenchymal sparing. Typically, since the treatment is
             personalized, the goal is to have at least 30% liver parenchymal sparing post
             treatment.

          -  Must have a metastatic focus amendable to biopsy. It is permissible to use same or
             alternative lesion for biopsy for assessment for tumor response and changes in
             microenvironment (mandatory pre- and post-Y90-RE biopsy).

          -  At least 2 but no more than 3 lines of therapy allowed in metastatic setting. These
             include at least treatment with a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and/or
             irinotecan-based therapy, an anti-VEGF therapy and, if RAS wild-type, an anti-EGFR
             therapy, unless deemed intolerant or not suitable by the treating oncologist. NOTE:
             adjuvant and/or maintenance chemotherapy does not count as an additional line of
             therapy. (Patients with more than 3 lines of therapy are at risk for liver disease
             from prior systemic therapies and would not be reasonable candidates for Y90-RE).

          -  ECOG Performance Status (PS) 0 or 1.

          -  Negative serum pregnancy test done ≤7 days prior to registration, for persons of
             childbearing potential only.

          -  Females of childbearing potential (FOCBP), must use appropriate method(s) of
             contraception. FOCBP are defined as those who are not surgically sterile (i.e.,
             bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or complete hysterectomy) or
             postmenopausal (defined as 12 months with no menses without an alternative medical
             cause). Additionally, FOCBP must agree to follow instructions for method(s) of
             contraception for the duration of treatment with durvalumab plus 5 half-lives of
             durvalumab (13 weeks) plus 30 days (duration of ovulatory cycle) for a total of 17
             weeks post-treatment completion (details in appendix).

          -  Men who are sexually active with FOCBP must agree to follow instructions for method(s)
             of contraception for the duration of treatment with durvalumab plus 5 half-lives of
             durvalumab plus 90 days (duration of sperm turnover) for a total of 25 weeks
             post-treatment completion (details in appendix).

          -  Provide written informed consent.

          -  Ability to complete questionnaire(s) by themselves or with assistance.

          -  Willingness to provide mandatory blood specimens for correlative research (detailed in
             protocol).

          -  Willingness to provide mandatory tissue specimens for correlative research (detailed
             in protocol). NOTE: If tissue is deemed inaccessible, patient cannot participate in
             study.

             Monitoring Phase of the study).
