Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: MAIN STUDY AND SAFETY RUN-IN PHASE OF THE STUDY: A patient may be included if the answer to all of the following statements is “yes”. • Signed and dated informed consent, and willing and able to comply with protocol requirements, • Histologically proven adenocarcinoma of the colon and/or rectum, • Metastatic disease confirmed, with liver-only metastatic disease except in the safety run-in phase of the study, where extra-hepatic disease in the presence of liver metastases will be allowed. Presence of metachronous or synchronous liver metastases will be allowed. For patients enrolled in the safety run-in phase of the study, they will be required to have at least one liver metastasis but they will not have to meet the liver resectibility criteria set out for the main study. • Liver metastases considered to be unresectable at randomisation based on at least one of the following: i) No upfront R0/R1 resection of all hepatic lesions possible Note: a patient with bilobar disease suitable for a two-stage resection would still fulfill the inclusion criteria for unresectability. ii) Less than 30% estimated residual liver after resection iii) Disease in contact with major vessels of the remnant liver (vessels remaining after potential hepatectomy). These criteria should be discussed and agreed at an MDM in a local hepatopancreaticobiliary (HPB) centre. • Presence of synchronous colorectal primary cancer will be allowed. • General condition considered feasible for major abdominal surgery after first-line chemotherapy. • No evidence of extrahepatic metastatic disease as determined by CT CAP or other investigations such as PET scan or biopsy (if required). However, for the SAFETY RUN-IN PHASE of FOLFOXIRI + aflibercept, all comers with metastatic colorectal cancer will be allowed, irrespective of their RAS mutation status. These patients must have hepatic metastatic disease with or without extra-hepatic metastatic disease. The patients included in the safety run-in phase of the study with extra-hepatic disease will not be included in the final analysis but will be followed up according to the trial follow up plan. • Age =18 years • WHO Performance status (PS) 0-2, • Patients with adequate haematological, renal and liver functions as defined in the protocol. • Proteinuria =65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 170
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: A patient will not be eligible to enter the study if the answer to any of the following statement is “yes”. • Pre-existing permanent neuropathy (NCI grade =2) • Uncontrolled hypercalcemia, • Uncontrolled hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure >150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >100 mmHg), or history of hypertensive crisis, or hypertensive encephalopathy, • Concomitant protocol unplanned antitumor therapy (e.g. chemotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, immunotherapy), • Treatment with any other investigational medicinal product within 28 days prior to study entry. • Other serious and uncontrolled non-malignant disease, • History or evidence upon physical examination of CNS metastasis • Intolerance to atropine sulfate or loperamide • Known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency • Any of the following in 3 months prior to inclusion: grade 3-4 gastrointestinal bleeding (unless due to resected tumour), treatment resistant peptic ulcer disease, erosive oesophagitis or gastritis, infectious or inflammatory bowel disease, or diverticulitis. • Other concomitant or previous malignancy, except: i/ adequately treated in-situ carcinoma of the uterine cervix, ii/ basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, iii/ cancer in complete remission for >6months, Adjuvant or neo-adjuvant chemotherapy for prior tumour should be completed for more than 6 months of randomisation. In case of synchronous rectal cancer, radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy for primary rectal cancer will be allowed. • Any other serious and uncontrolled non-malignant disease, major surgery or traumatic injury within the last 28 days • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, • Patients with known allergy to study drugs, • History of myocardial infarction and/or stroke within 6 months prior to randomization. This includes, but is not limited to, the following examples: cerebrovascular accidents (= 6 months prior to registration), myocardial infarction (= 6 year prior to registration), New York Heart Association (NYHA) Grade II or greater congestive heart failure, serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication, clinically significant ECG findings (e.g. QTc = 460 or = 2º AV Block, etc.). Patients who suffer from serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication can enter the study only if they are considered to be in a stable condition regarding both the arrhythmia and their medication. Patients with pacemakers are allowed to enter the study only if they are considered as being in a stable condition. In case of doubt, the investigator should obtain a consultation with a local cardiologist. • Bowel obstruction. • Medical or psychiatric conditions that compromises the patient’s ability to give informed consent. • Serious, non-healing wound, ulcer or bone fracture • Major surgical procedure, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to randomization • Immunocompromised patients e.g. human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Patients with hepatic disease e.g. patients with known serologically positive Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C. • Treatment with strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g. Avasimibe,(5) carbamazepine, phenytoin, rifampin, St. John’s wort) unless discontinued > 7 days prior to randomization.

| Main Objective: MAIN STUDY: Primary objectives: • Progression free survival (PFS) of FOLFIRI plus cetuximab versus FOLFIRI plus aflibercept in patients with liver metastases deemed to be inoperable or unsuitable for upfront resection and with with RAS wild type (WT) disease. • In patients with RAS mutant CRC, to compare progression free survival of FOLFOXIRI versus FOLFIRI plus aflibercept or FOLFOXIRI plus aflibercept in patients with liver metastases deemed to be inoperable or unsuitable for upfront resection. The primary Endpoint of the study is one year-PFS The genetic material (DNA) in cancer cells can influence whether cancer responds to anti-cancer treatments. One of those characteristics is determined by examining a gene called RAS. RAS is an important downstream protein in the epridermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway. Previous research has shown that testing for RAS can help guide treatment for mCRC. If no mutations are identified in the RAS genes, the tumour is referred ;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of the study include, Overall survival (OS),Resection margins, radiological objective response rate (ORR), data on use of locoregional treatment options like radiofrequency ablation (RFA), patterns of failur, quality of life data and data on health economics. OS is measured from the time of randomisation of the study to the date of death from any cause; surviving patients will be censored at date last known to be alive. The resection margins are very important in determining the outcome of the patients recruited into this study. We will there report the R0 (no microscopic disease), R1 (microscopic disease, which is only detected under the microscopic examination of the resected tissue but is not visible to the naked eye of the operating surgeon) and R2 (macroscopic disease, which is visible to the naked eye of the operating surgeon) resection rates. Other secondary objectives/endpoints include relapse free survival for patients wh | — |
