Read the transcript

This trial is for adults with nonmetastatic, mismatch-repair-deficient or microsatellite-unstable solid tumors, without prior chemotherapy, radiation or surgery for that tumor. A separate group includes stage I–II endometrial cancer.

The idea: intravenous dostarlimab blocks PD-1 to release immune brakes. In the main cohort, complete responders can receive nonoperative monitoring; others may proceed to chemoradiation and then surgery, depending on response.

This phase 2 study plans 212 patients. Andrea Cercek leads at Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York. Ten US locations are marked recruiting; nine provide only limited activities or data collection.
