GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is currently recruiting for a Phase 3 clinical study titled ‘A Phase 3, Open-Label, Randomized Study of Perioperative Dostarlimab Monotherapy Versus Standard of Care in Participants With Untreated T4N0 or Stage III dMMR/MSI-H Resectable Colon Cancer.’ The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of perioperative dostarlimab compared to the standard of care in patients with specific types of resectable colon cancer. This research is significant as it could offer new treatment options for patients with this condition.
The study is testing the biological intervention dostarlimab, administered pre and post-surgery, against the standard of care treatments FOLFOX or CAPEOX, or expectant observation post-surgery. Dostarlimab is intended to enhance the treatment outcomes for patients with dMMR/MSI-H colon cancer.
This interventional study follows a randomized, parallel assignment model with no masking, focusing on treatment as its primary purpose. This design allows for a direct comparison between the experimental treatment and the standard of care.
The study began on August 1, 2023, with an estimated completion date set for July 14, 2025. These dates are crucial as they provide a timeline for when results might influence clinical practices and market dynamics.
For investors, this study could impact GSK’s stock performance positively if the results demonstrate significant benefits of dostarlimab over existing treatments. The pharmaceutical industry, particularly companies focusing on oncology, will be closely watching these developments.
The study is ongoing, with further details available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
