Title:
Neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade with toripalimab, with or without celecoxib, in mismatch repair-deficient or microsatellite instability-high, locally advanced, colorectal cancer (PICC): a single-centre, parallel-group, non-comparative, randomised, phase 2 trial
Excerpt:15 of 17 patients (88% [95% CI 64–99]) in the toripalimab plus celecoxib group and 11 of 17 patients (65% [38–86]) in the toripalimab monotherapy group had a pathological complete response...Neoadjuvant toripalimab with or without celecoxib could be a potential therapeutic option for patients with mismatch repair deficient or microsatellite instability-high, locally advanced, colorectal cancer.
