Neoadjuvant CAPOX Plus Ivonescimab Versus CAPOX for Locally Advanced Colon Cancer

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Histologically confirmed locally advanced resectable colon adenocarcinoma (colon cancer located more than 12 cm from the anal verge);
2. Imaging staging is T4, or T3 (with invasion of the muscularis propria ≥5 mm) combined with at least one of the following risk factors: number of metastatic lymph nodes ≥1, extramural vascular invasion (EMVI+), involvement of the mesocolic fascia. (TNM clinical staging (cTNN) according to the 8th edition of AJCC/UICC guidelines);
3. No distant metastasis;
4. At least one measurable lesion ;
5. Immunohistochemical testing of endoscopic biopsy samples by the study center's pathology department confirms diagnosis as pMMR, or genetic testing confirms MSS/MSS-L status (by PCR or NGS method);
6. No prior anti-tumor treatment for colorectal cancer;
7. Age ≥18 years and ≤75 years, regardless of gender;
8. ECOG performance status score 0-1;
9. Signed written informed consent before enrollment;
10. Expected survival of more than 12 weeks;
11. Adequate organ and bone marrow function.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. History of allergic diseases, severe drug allergies, or known allergy to large molecular weight protein formulations or Ivonesimab;
2. Cardiopulmonary insufficiency or hepatic and renal insufficiency that cannot tolerate CAPOX chemotherapy, known allergies to oxaliplatin, capecitabine, irinotecan;
3. Presence of distant metastases;
4. Incomplete or complete bowel obstruction; however, patients can be enrolled if the obstruction is relieved by conservative treatment, intestinal stenting, or colostomy;
5. History of significant bleeding tendency or coagulation disorders;
6. Any of the following complications:

   1. Major gastrointestinal hemorrhage, perforation
   2. Symptomatic cardiac disease (including unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and heart failure)
   3. Uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension
   4. Uncontrolled diarrhea (despite adequate treatment, it still interferes with daily activities)
7. Patients who are using immunosuppressants, systemic, or absorbable topical steroids for immunosuppressive purposes (dose \>10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), and continue to use them within 2 weeks before enrollment;
8. History of uncontrolled cardiac symptoms or diseases;
9. Previous history of thyroid dysfunction that cannot be maintained within normal range despite medication;
10. Use of traditional Chinese medicine immune modulators within 2 weeks before official treatment, or received systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, biological therapy, or other anti-tumor treatments including traditional Chinese medicine within 4 weeks prior to enrollment;
11. Previous exposure to immunotherapy, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, immune cell therapy, or any treatment targeting tumor immune mechanisms;
12. Previous exposure to systemic bevacizumab or its biosimilars;
13. Active infection or unexplained fever \>38.5°C during screening or before the first dose (patients with fever due to tumor, as determined by the investigator, may be eligible);
14. Objective evidence of pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial pneumonia, pneumoconiosis, radiation pneumonitis, drug-induced pneumonia, active tuberculosis, or severely impaired lung function;
15. Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (such as HIV-infected individuals, HIV 1/2 antibody positive);
16. For patients with positive acute or chronic active hepatitis B, HBV DNA testing must be performed. If the HBV DNA copy number ≤2×10\^3 copies/mL or ≤400 IU/mL or below the limit of detection, they may enroll. HBsAg (+) patients should receive antiviral therapy throughout the study period to prevent viral reactivation. For patients who are anti-HBc (+), HBsAg (-), anti-HBs (-), and HBV viral load (-), prophylactic antiviral therapy is not required but close monitoring for viral reactivation is necessary;
17. Acute or chronic active hepatitis C (HCV), defined as HCV antibody positive and HCV RNA levels above the limit of detection;
18. Vaccination with live vaccines less than 4 weeks before the start of study medication or likely to occur during the study period;
19. Known history of psychotropic drug abuse, alcoholism, or drug addiction;
20. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, and men and women unwilling to use contraception.
