Brief Summary:
This phase III trial studies combination chemotherapy and atezolizumab to see how well it works compared with combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with stage III colon cancer and deficient deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mismatch repair. Drugs used in combination chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy with atezolizumab may work better than combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with colon cancer.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Arm I (combination chemotherapy, atezolizumab)
Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours and leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours on day 1, and fluorouracil IV as a bolus on day 1, then continuously over 46 hours on days 1-3 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 14 days for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of each cycle, beginning in cycle 1 or 2. Treatment repeats every 14 days for up to 25 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo CT or MRI every 6 months for the first 2 years, then for years 3-5 or until evidence of relapse, whichever comes first. Patients may also undergo blood sample collection throughout the trial.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Disease free survival (DFS) [ Time Frame: From the time from randomization to first documentation of disease recurrent or death, assessed up to 5 years ]
    DFS will be compared between treatment arms using the stratified log rank test at one-sided level 0.025. If zero DFS events are observed in a certain stratum at an interim analysis and unstratified log-rank is used, all subsequent analyses for DFS will use unstratified log-rank test. The hazard ratio (HR) for DFS will be estimated using a stratified Cox proportional hazards model and the 95 percent confidence interval (CI) for the HR will be provided. Results from an unstratified analysis will also be provided. Kaplan-Meier methodology will be used to estimate the median DFS for each treatment arm, and Kaplan-Meier curves will be produced. Brookmeyer Crowley methodology will be used to construct the 95 percent CI for the median DFS for each treatment arm.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall survival [ Time Frame: From the time from randomization to death, from any cause, assessed up to 5 years ]
    The distribution of overall survival will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Overall survival will be compared between treatment arms using the log-rank test, only if DFS is statistically significant. The HR for OS will be estimated using a Cox proportional hazards model and the 95 percent CI for the HR will be provided. If a stratified log-rank test is used, stratified HR will be considered, and if an unstratified log-rank test is used, unstratified HR will be considered.

  2. Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 30 days after last treatment ]
    Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0. Frequency tables will be reviewed to determine the patterns. The overall adverse event rates will be compared between treatment arms using Chi-square test (or Fisher's exact test if the data in contingency table is sparse).

Ages Eligible for Study:   12 Years and older   (Child, Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologically proven stage III colon adenocarcinoma (any T [Tx, T1, T2, T3, or T4], N1-2M0; includes N1C); tumors must be deemed to originate in the colon including tumors that extend into/involve the small bowel (e.g. those at the ileocecal valve)
  • Presence of deficient (d) DNA mismatch repair (dMMR); MMR status must be assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for MMR protein expression (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2) where loss of one or more proteins indicates dMMR; dMMR may be determined either locally or by site-selected reference lab; Note: loss of MLH1 and PMS2 commonly occur together; formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue is required for subsequent retrospective central confirmation of dMMR status
  • Patients who are known to have Lynch syndrome, have been found to carry a specific germline mutation in an MMR gene (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2), and have been shown to be dMMR by IHC are eligible to participate
  • Tumors must have been completely resected; in patients with tumor adherent to adjacent structures, en bloc R0 resection must be documented in the operative report or otherwise confirmed by the surgeon; near or positive radial margins are acceptable so long as en bloc resection was performed; proximal or distal margin positivity is not permitted
  • Entire tumor must be in the colon (rectal involvement is an exclusion); surgeon confirmation that entire tumor was located in the colon is required only in cases where it is important to establish if the tumor is a colon versus (vs.) rectal primary; patients with more than one primary colon adenocarcinoma are eligible if the qualifying stage III tumor is confined to the colon, and not rectum, and the other cancers of lower stage are removed in the en bloc R0 resection
  • Based upon the operative report and other source documentation, the location of the primary tumor will be categorized as proximal or distal to the splenic flexure (included with distal), and further categorization will be as follows: cecum/ascending, transverse, descending, sigmoid colon, or rectosigmoid colon
  • No evidence of residual involved lymph node disease or metastatic disease at the time of registration based on clinician assessment of imaging; the treating physician will determine if incidental lesions on imaging require workup to exclude metastatic disease; if based on review of images, the treating physician determines the patient to be stage III, then the patient is eligible
  • No prior medical therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biologic or targeted therapy) or radiation therapy for the current colon cancer except for one cycle of mFOLFOX6

  • Creatinine =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or

  • Calculated creatinine clearance >= 45 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault equation

      • 12 years: 1.2 (male and female)
      • 13 to < 16 years: 1.5 (male), 1.4 (female)
      • 16 to < 18 years: 1.7 (male), 1.4 (female)
  • Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) except in the case of Gilbert disease
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
