Study Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving azacitidine together with entinostat works in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Entinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving azacitidine together with entinostat may kill more tumor cells.

Primary Outcome

Each evaluable patient is classified as having a confirmed tumor response if they have either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) lasts at least 4 weeks. Tumor response is measured by using RECIST v1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors). A CR is defined as a disappearance of all target lesions, and each target lymph node must have reduction in short axis to \<1.0 cm. A PR is defined as a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter for all target lesions plus the sum
