Impact of Baseline Covariates and Prior Therapy on the Efficacy of Second-Line Panitumumab (Pmab) + Folfiri Vs Folfiri Treatment
ABSTRACT Aim: Expanding RAS analyses beyond KRAS exon 2 is important in selecting patients (pts) for pmab treatment. Here we present prespecified subgroup analyses from a phase 3 randomised second-line pmab + FOLFIRI vs FOLFIRI study in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) pts. Methods: Progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were co-primary endpoints. KRAS exon 2 wild-type (WT) samples were tested for mutations in KRAS exons 3/4, NRAS exons 2/3/4 and BRAF exon 15 via bidirectional Sanger sequencing and WAVE-based SURVEYOR®. PFS and OS subgroup analyses were performed by randomisation stratification factors (ECOG performance status [PS], prior bevacizumab [bev]/prior oxaliplatin [ox…
Tumour Shrinkage and Response Outcomes During Second-Line Panitumumab (Pmab) + Folfiri Vs Folfiri Treatment
ABSTRACT Aim: Tumour shrinkage/response are important outcomes for patients (pts) with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) as they may delay progression and ultimately improve survival. Here we report tumour response data for pts with RAS WT mCRC treated with FOLFIRI ± pmab. Methods: 181 was a phase 3 randomised study of second-line pmab + FOLFIRI vs FOLFIRI alone in pts with previously treated mCRC. KRAS exon 2 wild-type (WT) samples from this study were tested for mutations in KRAS exons 3/4 and NRAS exons 2/3/4 via bidirectional Sanger sequencing and WAVE-based SURVEYOR® to identify pts with RAS WT tumours (no mutations in KRAS/NRAS exons 2, 3 or 4). Objective response rates (ORRs) and m…
Final results from a randomized phase 3 study of FOLFIRI \pm$ panitumumab for second-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer
Abstract: Background: The study 20050181 demonstrated significant improvements in progression-free survival (PFS), objective response, and a nonsignificant trend toward increased overall survival (OS) with panitumumab-FOLFIRI versus FOLFIRI alone for second-line wild-type (WT) KRAS metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Updated long-term data from a prespecified descriptive analysis are reported. Patients and methods: Patients receiving one prior mCRC treatment were randomly assigned (1:1) to panitumumab (6.0 mg/kg)-FOLFIRI versus FOLFIRI every 2 weeks. Co-primary end points (PFS and OS) were prospectively analyzed by tumor KRAS status. Results: One thousand one hundred and eighty-six patient…
Short-course radiotherapy followed by chemotherapy before total mesorectal excision (TME) versus preoperative chemoradiotherapy, TME, and optional adjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer (RAPIDO): a randomised, open-label, phase 3 trial
BACKGROUND: Systemic relapses remain a major problem in locally advanced rectal cancer. Using short-course radiotherapy followed by chemotherapy and delayed surgery, the Rectal cancer And Preoperative Induction therapy followed by Dedicated Operation (RAPIDO) trial aimed to reduce distant metastases without compromising locoregional control. METHODS: In this multicentre, open-label, randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, participants were recruited from 54 centres in the Netherlands, Sweden, Spain, Slovenia, Denmark, Norway, and the USA. Patients were eligible if they were aged 18 years or older, with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1, had a biopsy-prove…
ESMO consensus guidelines for the management of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer
Contains fulltext : 165965.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in Western countries. Over the last 20 years, and the last decade in particular, the clinical outcome for patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC) has improved greatly due not only to an increase in the number of patients being referred for and undergoing surgical resection of their localised metastatic disease but also to a more strategic approach to the delivery of systemic therapy and an expansion in the use of ablative techniques. This reflects the increase in the number of patients that are being managed within a multidisciplinary team environment and speciali…
