简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine confirmed objective response rate to combination therapy with cetuximab plus XELOX for 4 cycles followed by maintenance treatment with cetuximab plus capecitabine as first line treatment in elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer
详细描述
-
This open-label, non-controlled, multicentre, phase II study will recruit 53 elderly patients with diagnosis of metastatic colorectal cancer.
-
All patients will receive 4 cycles of treatment with cetuximab plus XELOX followed by cetuximab plus capecitabine as maintenance therapy until progression of disease, occurrence of unacceptable toxicity to the study drugs, or withdrawal of consent by the patient.
-
The planned duration of a cycle is 3 weeks.
-
Cetuximab therapy will not be delayed for chemotherapy-related toxicity and vice versa. If patients benefit from combination therapy, but develop unacceptable intolerance to oxaliplatin and/or capecitabine, cetuximab may be continued in combination with the other chemotherapy drug and/or as a single agent. In case of cetuximab intolerance, patients should continue with chemotherapy treatment until progression disease.
-
Evaluations:
-
Efficacy data (response rate, progression-free survival, duration of response and survival) and safety data will be collected. The investigators will assess responses to treatment.
-
When the treatment is stopped either because of disease progression or occurrence of unacceptable toxicity, the patients will enter a follow-up period where the progression-free survival, the subsequent lines of treatment and the survival data will be collected every 12 weeks.
