Colo-rectal Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
This is an open label, multicenter, randomized study in Chinese patients with RAS and BRAF wild-type mCRC. Participants were randomly assigned to cetuximab + FOLFOX (group A) and cetuximab + modified XELOX\[mXELOX\] (group B). All patients in groups A and B will be treated until progression of disease(PD), death, intolerable toxicity or withdrawal of informed consent, whichever occurs first.
Interventions
DRUGExperimental: mXELOX plus cetuximab
Patients will receive the study drug after randomization, and those with effective efficacy evaluation (CR, PR or SD) will receive intravenous chemotherapy for up to 9 cycles, and then enter the maintenance treatment stage until PD, death, intolerable toxicity or withdrawal of informed consent (whichever occurs first) Cetuximab: 500 mg/m2, IV, d1, q2w; Oxaliplatin: 85 mg/m2, IV, d1,q2w; Capecitabine: 850 mg/m2, po, bid, q2w maintenance stage: Cetuximab: 500 mg/m2, IV, d1, q2w; Capecitabine: 850 mg/m2, po, bid, d1-10, q2w;
DRUGActive Comparator: FOLFOX plus cetuximab
Patients will receive the study drug after randomization, and those with effective efficacy evaluation (CR, PR or SD) will receive intravenous chemotherapy for up to 9 cycles, and then enter the maintenance treatment stage until PD, death, intolerable toxicity or withdrawal of informed consent (whichever occurs first) Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, IV d1; Leucovorin 400 mg/m2 IV d1; 5-FU 400 mg/m2 IV bolus on d1, then 1200 mg/m2/d x 2d(total 2400 mg/m2 over 46-48 hours) IV continuous infusion; q2w maintenance stage: Cetuximab: 500 mg/m2, IV, d1, q2w; Leucovorin： 400 mg/m2 IV d1, q2w; 5-FU： 400 mg/m2 IV bolus on d1, then 1200 mg/m2/d x 2d(total 2400 mg/m2 over 46-48hours) IV continuous infusion, q2w （Cetuximab combined with capecitabine can be used according to the patient's wishes and the nursing situation of intravenous catheterization）

| Change From Baseline in 5-level EuroQol-5 Dimensions(EQ-5D-5L) | From Baseline to primary completion date, about 48 months | Quality of life in patients with colorectal cancer is assessed using 5-level EuroQol-5 Dimensions(EQ-5D-5L). EQ-5D-5L comprises a short descriptive system questionnaire and a visual analogue scale (EQ VAS). The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system comprises five dimensions(MOBILITY, SELF-CARE, USUAL ACTIVITIES, PAIN /DISCOMFORT and ANXIETY / DEPRESSION) , each dimension now has five response levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, unable to /extreme problems. The EQ VAS records the respondent's overall current health on a vertical visual analogue scale, where the endpoints are labelled The best health you can imagine and The worst health you can imagine. The EQ VAS provides a quantitative measure of the patient's perception of their overall health. One hundred means the best health you can imagine and Zero means the worst health you can imagine. It will be evaluated at Screening, Tumor Assessment Visit and End of Treatment visit. |
| objective response rate | From Baseline to primary completion date, about 48 months. | The proportion of patients who acquired complete response and partial response during treatment. |
| Overall Survival OS | From Baseline to primary completion date, about 48 months | from randomization to death from any cause |
| Change From Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-CR29 (EORTC QLQ-CR29) | From Baseline to primary completion date, about 48 months | Quality of life in patients with colorectal cancer is assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) CR29. It will be evaluated at Screening, Tumor Assessment Visit and End of Treatment visit. The maximum and minimum values are 104 and 25 respectively, and the smaller the value, the better the quality of life. |
