A Study of QBECO Versus Placebo in the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer That Has Spread to the Liver (NCT05677113)
A Phase II Study of Perioperative QBECO Site Specific Immunomodulator (Qu Biologics®) in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Adenocarcinoma Within the Liver Undergoing Resection
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this type of clinical trial is t to answer the following question: Can the chance of colorectal cancer progressing be lowered by taking a medication, QBECO, before and after surgery? The goal of this study is to find out if this approach is better or worse than the standard of care for your type of cancer. The standard of care is defined as care most people get for metastatic colorectal cancer. There is currently no standard of care drug being given before or after surgery to prevent further spread of your cancer. Participants will be asked to self-inject the study medication before surgery for minimum of 11 days and after surgery for minimum of 41 days. Participants will be followed up every 3 months for 2 years, with a final visit at year 5.
