Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Phase IIa: To analyse the potential effect of FOLFOXIRI as an intensive adjuvant treatment for ctDNA clearance as a surrogate biomarker of treatment efficacy. Phase IIb: To study differences on the conversion rate between an intensive adjuvant treatment (FOLFOXIRI) versus conventional adjuvant therapy (CAPOX).;Secondary Objective: Phase IIb: a) To evaluate the impact of intensive chemotherapy treatment on disease-free survival in patients with positive ctDNA at 24 months after end of treatment b) To evaluate the disease-free survival at 12 months after end of treatment, according to the seroconversion rate (ctDNA positive that becomes ctDNA negative) in each treatment arm. c) To assess the toxicity of triplet combination chemotherapy of FOLFOXIRI compared with conventional adjuvant treatment (CAPOX) for patients with localized colon cancer. d) To evaluate the impact of FOLFOXIRI compared with CAPOX on quality of life in patients with localized colon cancer.;Primary end point(s): Phase IIa: Proportion of patients who negativize ctDNA after treatment. Phase IIb: Proportion of patients who negativize ctDNA after treatment in intensive group versus standard of care.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: End of treatment and Follow up visits (month 10, month 14, month 18, month 22, month 26, month 30).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Phase IIb: - Disease-free survival comparison between both treatment groups 24 months after treatment. - Disease-free survival comparison between both treatment groups 12 months after treatment. - Proportion of patients treated with triplet combination chemotherapy of FOLFOXIRI presenting adverse events in comparison to conventional adjuvant treatment (CAPOX). - QLQ-C30 Quality of Life of Cancer Patients and QLQ – CR29, comparation scores between groups at baseline, 3 months and end of treatment.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Screening, Treatment Visits, End of tratment, Follow up visits (month 10, month 14, month 18, month 22, month 26, month 30).
