Tumour Shrinkage and Response Outcomes During Second-Line Panitumumab (Pmab) + Folfiri Vs Folfiri Treatment
2014
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…

3586 Background: The oral multikinase inhibitor Sorafenib (S) inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth in preclinical models of CRC. This study investigated the addition of S to standard 2nd line chemotherapy (CTX). Methods: Patients (pts) with mCRC and progression after first-line therapy with an oxaliplatin- or irinotecan based fluoropyrimidine containing regimen ± Bevacizumab (Bev), were randomized to receive chemotherapy (CTX) (FOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI) + S (400 mg bid) or CTX + placebo (P). 240 pts were planned to be enrolled to ensure a power of 80% if median progression-free survival (PFS) with S is increased by 2 months compared to P. Results: Between 04/09 and 10/11, 101 pts were enrolled…
Colorectal Cancer: Metastatic Disease
2021
Most patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) develop metastases during the disease course after resection of the primary locoregional cancer. To date, the liver represents the most common site of metastatic involvement. Although several different biological and clinical hallmarks exist between the colon and rectum (different embryological origin, anatomy, and molecular biology), mCRC requires similar staging procedures and systemic treatment strategies (first and subsequent lines) in terms of a multimodal approach treatment as a part of a “continuum of care.” Patients affected by oligometastatic disease should undergo an upfront evaluation by a multidisciplinary team for…

FOLFIRI plus cetuximab versus FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (FIRE-3): a randomised,…
2014
Summary Background Cetuximab and bevacizumab have both been shown to improve outcomes in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer when added to chemotherapy regimens; however, their comparative effectiveness when partnered with first-line fluorouracil, folinic acid, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI) is unknown. We aimed to compare these agents in patients with KRAS (exon 2) codon 12/13 wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer. Methods In this open-label, randomised, phase 3 trial, we recruited patients aged 18–75 years with stage IV, histologically confirmed colorectal cancer, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0–2, an estimated life expectancy of greater than 3 month…
Pharmacogenetics of treatments for pancreatic cancer
2019
Introduction: Despite clinical efforts, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a dismal prognosis. The scarcity of effective therapies can be reflected by the lack of reliable biomarkers to adapt anticancer drugs prescription to tumors’ and patients’ features. Areas covered: Pharmacogenetics should provide the way to select patients who may benefit from a specific therapy that best matches individual and tumor genetic profile, but it has not yet led to gains in outcome. This review describes PDAC pharmacogenetics findings, critically reappraising studies on polymorphisms and -omics profiles correlated to response to gemcitabine, FOLFIRINOX, and nab-paclitaxel combinations, as well as l…
