Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In recent years, substantial advancements have reshaped the landscape of CRC treatment, offering new hope and improved outcomes for affected individuals. Surgical intervention remains the cornerstone of curative therapy, guided by tumor stage, location, and patient's overall health status. Adjuvant therapies, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, have been pivotal in reducing recurrence rates and enhancing overall survival. Targeted treatments, such as anti-EGFR and anti-VEGF drugs, have ushered in an era of precision medicine, selectively targeting critical molecular pathways. Meanwhile, immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors, has emerged as a promising frontier, offering personalized treatment options for CRC patients.
In CRC, the PD-1 inhibition pathway plays a central role in regulating immune cell exhaustion; however, the response to PD-1 monotherapy is limited in a majority of colorectal cancer patients, suggesting that combining PD-1 blockade with other immunostimulatory agents holds promise. Currently, several combination therapies have shown progress in animal models and are being explored in clinical studies. Among these, interleukin-2 (IL-2) emerges as a candidate drug, synergizing with PD-1 blockade to potentiate antitumor effects. This study aims to investigate the combination of IL-2 with PD-1 inhibitors, seeking to overcome the limitations of single-agent immunotherapy through multifaceted immunomodulation. By modulating the immune microenvironment to enhance immune cell infiltration and break down the physical and immunosuppressive barriers of the tumor, this approach seeks to augment the efficacy of immunotherapy, particularly for immunologically cold CRC patients.
