Neoadjuvant botensilimab plus balstilimab response pattern in locally advanced mismatch repair proficient colorectal cancer

Significant tumor-shrinking activity was observed following neoadjuvant immunotherapy with botensilimab plus balstilimab (BOT/BAL) in microsatellite stable colorectal cancer (MSS CRC). Whole-slide pre-treatment biopsy and post-treatment surgically resected samples were interrogated using one-step, 13-plex imaging on the Orion spatial biology platform. Quantitative analysis was employed to measure immune cell density and proliferation index within and near the tumor for pre-treatment and post-treatment samples. Spatial biology analysis of patient samples can inform mechanisms of action, providing insight for clinical trial designs using neoadjuvant immunotherapy.
