Sponsor's own description
The main purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the good and the bad effects of all trans retinoic acid (ATRA), atezolizumab and bevacizumab as a possible treatment for advanced colorectal patients. Participants will be treated with the following combination of these drugs: 1. ATRA will be given in a pill form to be taken twice a day at home for 7 days starting on day 1 of a cycle. 2. Atezolizumab will be given through a vein in arm or through mediport over 60-90 minutes every 2 weeks in the outpatient chemotherapy infusion centers at UTSW. 3. Bevacizumab will be given through a vein in arm or through mediport over 20-40 minutes every 2 weeks in the outpatient chemotherapy infusion centers at UTSW.
