This randomized phase 1b trial (NCT05890742) evaluated a neoadjuvant regimen of IBI310 (anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 [CTLA-4]) plus sintilimab (n = 52) versus sintilimab monotherapy (n = 49). Surgery was performed in 51 and 45 patients, respectively. The primary endpoint, pathological complete response (pCR) rate, was significantly higher in the combination compared to the monotherapy arm within the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population (78.4% versus 46.7%, p = 0.0015), with consistent results in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population (76.9% versus 42.9%). Safety in both arms was comparable and manageable without new safety signals. After a median follow-up of 21.4 months, no disease recurrences occurred. One death occurred in each arm due to postoperative complication and adverse events. These findings demonstrate the added benefit of neoadjuvant IBI310 plus sintilimab over sintilimab monotherapy for locally advanced MSI-H/dMMR colon cancer.\n\nIndexed on Europe PMC as PubMed record 41043438 (DOI 10.1016/j.ccell.2025.09.004).
