简要总结
OBJECTIVE: The objective of the trial is to judge on the benefit obtained by an upfront cetuximab treatment delivered as monotherapy or as part of a combination treatment with capecitabine in vulnerable elderly patients selected for V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) wild-type and B-type Raf kinase (BRAF) wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
详细描述
Primary endpoint: If in a treatment arm the number of patients alive and without progression at 12 weeks is 17 or more, this arm will be considered promising, otherwise not promising. Additionally, a two-sided 95% confidence interval for the difference in Progression free survival (PFS) rates between the two arms will be calculated.
Secondary endpoints and patient characteristics:
- Laboratory values may be expressed as the absolute values (continuous variables) or/and as grading (ordinal categorical variables).
- Generally for each categorical variable the results will be summarized by frequencies and percentages. For response rates 95% Clopper-Pearson confidence intervals will be calculated.
- For each adverse event, the results will be summarized by frequencies and percentages of different grades among all cycles as well as by frequencies and percentages of the within-patient worst grades
- For each continuous variable the results will be summarized by descriptive statistics.
- Time-to-event variables will be presented by Kaplan-Meier curves and summarized by medians and 95% confidence intervals.
- All analysis will be done by treatment arm.

排除标准

结局指标
主要结局
Progression free survival in week 12
时间窗: in week 12
A progression event is defined as (whichever occurs first): * Progressive disease (PD) assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 * Death of any cause * Starting of second line treatment * No tumor assessment 85 days (+/- 7 days) after registration which shows stabilisation or response Patients without tumor assessment at week 12 but with a later assessment showing absence of progression without subsequent treatment will be counted as a progression free at week 12
次要结局
- Overall Response (OR)(Before start of treatment. In week 13 and every 12 weeks up to 2 years.)
- Quality of life (QL)(Baseline, in week 7, 13 and 19)
- Adverse events (CTCAE v 4.0)(Adverse events are assessed by Common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE) v4.0. From randomization until 30 days after end of treatment (estimated up to 2 years).)
- Progression free survival (PFS)(PFS will be calculated sustained from randomization until documented PD or death, whichever occurs first (estimated up to 2 years).)
- Overall Survival (OS)(Overall survival will be calculated from randomization until death (estimated up to 2 years).)
- Overall treatment utility (OTU) (predefined composite endpoint including clinical benefit, tolerability and acceptability of the treatment)(Until week 19.)
