About this study
This study is a non-randomized, open-label, multi-cohort, multi-site, pilot feasibility therapeutic trial. The study will enroll 20 patients across 4 cohorts (CRC, gastric, PDAC, and HCC/intra-hepatic-/extra-hepatic-, gall bladder adenocarcinomas) diagnosed with histologically confirmed GI cancers. These patients will have already completed all Standard of Care (SOC) treatments (including neoadjuvant, surgery, local therapies, and/or adjuvant therapy as applicable), as defined by the treating primary physician or research team, with curative intent but have a positive SignateraTM tumor-informed ctDNA test and NED radiographically by standard imaging within 28 days prior to enrollment and within 1 year of completing all curative-intent therapy. All patients will be treated with intravenous (IV) atezolizumab 1200 mg IV and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg on Day 1 of 21-day cycles until disease recurrence, ctDNA POD, unacceptable toxicity, or subject withdrawal of consent with a maximum 12 month total duration of study therapy. Atezolizumab and bevacizumab drug will be provided.

You may qualify if…
- ✓ 1. Signed Informed Consent Form
- ✓ 2. Age \>= 18 years at time of signing Informed Consent Form
- ✓ 3. Ability to comply with the study protocol, in the investigator's judgment
- ✓ 4. Histologically or cytologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, or extra-hepatic/intra-hepatic/gallbladder adenocarcinoma. Patients may be enrolled irrespective of any mutational analyses.
- ✓ 5. Must have been diagnosed with any stage disease (including localized and metastatic disease) that was felt to have already been treated completely with curative-intent per investigator's, primary physician's, or research team's judgement. Curative-intent treatment strategies are unique to each tumor type and stage but includes all surgeries and perioperative therapies recommended. If patients were appropriately treated with curative intent but felt to be high-risk for relapse, they may be still be included.
- ✓ o Patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma specifically must have Child Pugh A score at the time of screening; o Patients must have completed all definitive SOC treatment with curative intent (neoadjuvant, surgery, radiation, and adjuvant treatments) for specific tumor-type and stage per investigator's/primary physician's or research team's judgment. Curative treatment regimens including chemotherapy, radiation, treatment sequencing, and surgery should have been followed as per local standards and NCCN guidelines or non-standard curative-intent therapy through a clinical trial at the discretion of the investigator/treating physician.
- ✓ 6. Patients who have undergone definitive, curative-intent treatment of oligometastatic (synchronous or metachronous) disease with NED per investigator judgement are acceptable for enrollment.
- ✓ 7. Must have disease-free status documented by complete physical examination and imaging studies with no evidence of recurrent, residual, or metastatic disease on standard imaging (chest, abdomen, and pelvis captured by CT chest and CT or MRI of abdomen and pelvis) per investigator assessment within 28 days prior to enrollment
You may not qualify if…
- ✕ 1. There is suspicion or evidence of gross residual, recurrent, or metastatic disease present on physical exam, imaging, or by biopsy within 28 days of starting study treatment.
- ✕ 2. Patients who were/are eligible for but have not received all guideline-recommended standard of care therapy within the recommended time-frame for definitive treatment. The exception (permitting inclusion) would be if any standard of care treatment was deferred due to valid medical reasoning based on the investigator's discretion or patient's preference.
- ✕ 3. Active or history of autoimmune disease or immune deficiency, including, but not limited to, myasthenia gravis, myositis, autoimmune hepatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, Wegener granulomatosis, Sjögren syndrome, Guillain-Barré syndrome, or multiple sclerosis (see Appendix 6 for a more comprehensive list of autoimmune diseases and immune deficiencies), with the following exceptions: o Patients with a history of autoimmune-related hypothyroidism who are on thyroid-replacement hormone are eligible for the study. o Patients with controlled Type 1 diabetes mellitus who are on an insulin regimen are eligible for the study. o Patients with eczema, psoriasis, lichen simplex chronicus, or vitiligo with dermatologic manifestations only (e.g., patients with psoriatic arthritis are excluded) are eligible for the study provided all of following conditions are met: - Rash must cover \< 10% of body surface area; - Disease is well controlled at baseline and requires only low-potency topical corticosteroids; - No occurrence of acute exacerbations of the underlying condition requiring psoralen plus ultraviolet A radiation, methotrexate, retinoids, biologic agents, oral calcineurin inhibitors, or high-potency or oral corticosteroids within the previous 12 months
- ✕ 4. History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organizing pneumonia (e.g., bronchiolitis obliterans), drug-induced pneumonitis, or idiopathic pneumonitis, or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest computed tomography (CT) scan; History of radiation pneumonitis in the radiation field (fibrosis) is permitted.
- ✕ 5. Active tuberculosis
- ✕ 6. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, such as cerebrovascular accidents within 12 months prior to randomization, myocardial infarction within 12 months prior to study treatment, unstable angina, New York Heart Association (NYHA) Grade II or greater congestive heart failure or serious cardiac arrhythmia uncontrolled by medication or potentially interfering with study treatment.
- ✕ 7. Significant vascular disease (e.g., aortic aneurysm requiring surgical repair or recent arterial thrombosis) within 6 months prior to randomization.
- ✕ 8. Inadequately controlled hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure \>150mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure \>100 mmHg), based on an average of ≥ 3 BP blood pressure readings on ≥ 2 sessions. Anti-hypertensive therapy to achieve these parameters is allowable.
