Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of dose selection of CPT-11 on toxicity, response and pharmacokinetics according to UGT1A1 genotype in colorectal cancer patients.
Detailed description
Genetic polymorphisms of UGTs result in reduced enzyme activity and increased toxicity. UGT1A1\*28 and UGT1A1\*6 are reported to increase CPT-11-related toxicity in Asian patients. Moreover, the area under concentration curve (AUC) ratio of SN-38G to SN-38 is decreased in Asian patients having UGT1A1 \*28 or UGT1A1\*6. This implicated that the current standard dose of CPT-11 would be overdosing for homozygous UGT1A1\*28/\*28, \*6/\*6 or \*28/\*6 patients. The study is designed to investigate the role of prospectively dose reduction of CPT-11 in toxicity, tumor response and pharmacokinetics for homozygous UGT1A1 patients, and compare these parameters to standard dose of CPT-11 for wild-type, heterozygous or homozygous UGT1A1 patients.
Interventions
CPT-11 will be administered according to UGT1A1 genotypes. Patients with UGT1A1 \*1/\*1 or heterozygous UGT1A1\*1/\*28 or \*1/\*6 will receive standard dose of CPT-11. Patients with homozygous UGT1A1\*28/\*28, \*6/\*6 or \*28/\*6, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive standard dose of CPT-11 or 50% reduced dose of CPT-11.
The 5-FU dosage will remain the standard.
The LV dosage will remain the standard.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of toxicity, especially neutropenia and diarrhea | From the beginning of treatment to the whole treatment period, an expected average of 6-8 months. | Association between UGT1A1 polymorphism, CPT-11 dosage and incidence of toxicity, especially neutropenia and diarrhea. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Progression-free survival (PFS) | An expected average of 6-8 months. | Association between UGT1A1 polymorphism, CPT-11 dosage and PFS. PFS is defined as the length of time from randomise to disease progression or to death from any cause other than progression. |
| Response rate | Every 6 weeks, an expected average of 6-8 months. | Association between UGT1A1 polymorphism, CPT-11 dosage and tumor response. |
| Pharmacokinetics of irinotecan and its metabolites, SN-38 and SN-38G. | The first treatment cycle. | Association between UGT1A1 polymorphism, CPT-11 dosage and pharmacokinetics of irinotecan. Plasma concentration of irinotecan and its metabolites, SN-38 and SN-38G are determined using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC-MS/MS). |
