简要总结
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can target tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Best supportive care is the use of drugs and other treatments to improve the quality of life of patients. Combining cetuximab with best supportive care may slow the growth of the tumor and help patients live longer and more comfortably. It is not yet known whether cetuximab combined with best supportive care is more effective than best supportive care alone in treating metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor-positive colorectal cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying cetuximab and best supportive care to see how well they work compared to best supportive care alone in treating patients with metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor-positive colorectal cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Compare survival of patients with metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor-positive colorectal cancer treated with cetuximab and best supportive care vs best supportive care alone.
Secondary
- Compare the time to disease progression in patients treated with these regimens.
- Compare the objective response rate in patients treated with these regimens.
- Compare the quality of life of patients treated with these regimens.
- Compare the health utilities of patients treated with these regimens.
- Conduct a comparative economic evaluation in patients treated with these regimens.
- Determine the safety profile of cetuximab in these patients.
