AbstractBackgroundThis study was carried out to evaluate total basal bilirubin levels as a predictive factor for survival and toxicity in patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma treated with CTP-11-based regimens.Patients and methodsThe analysis was carried out on a data base including 287 patients affected by advanced colorectal carcinoma all treated with CPT-11 plus bolus and continuous venous infusion intravenous folinic acid and 5-fluorouracil on a biweekly schedule (FOLFIRI regimen).
