Brief summary

Fruquintinib with PD-1 inhibitors (FP) and TAS-102 with bevacizumab (TB) are two common therapies for patients with previous-treated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, it's still not clear that which therapy can bring better prognosis. Our study sought to investigate the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib with PD-1 Inhibitors versus TAS-102 with bevacizumab in Late-Line mCRC between July 2019 to October 2022July 2019 and June 2021 at the Hunan Cancer Hospital.

Detailed description

This is a retrospective cohort study conducted in Hunan Cancer Hospital. Patients (pts) with mCRC who had received at least the 2nd line treatment were eligible. Propensity score (PS) would be calculated to balance the baseline characteristics of two arms. Overall survival (OS) was set as the primary endpoint. From July 2019 to October 2022, 106 eligible pts in total were enrolled. According to the treatment received, 72 and 34 pts were respectively allocated into FP cohort and TB cohort.

Interventions

DRUGFruquintinib

5mg once daily for 14 days on/7 days off, over a 21-day cycle

DRUGPD-1 inhibitors

The anti-PD-1 antibody was administered intravenously on day 1, and its recommended dosage was as follows: nivolumab: 240 mg, every 2 weeks; pembrolizumab, camrelizumab, and sintilimab: 200 mg every 3 weeks; and toripalimab: 240 mg every 3 weeks.

DRUGTrifluridine/Tipiracil

TAS-102 35 mg/m²orally twice a day on days 1-5 and 8-12, every 28 days

DRUGBevacizumab

Bevacizumab 5 mg /kg, intravenously on days 1,15,every 28 days

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Survival (OS)Approximately 12 monthsOverall survival defined as the observed time elapsed between the date of commencement of treatment and the date of death due to any cause

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-free survival (PFS)Approximately 12 monthsProgression-free survival defined as the time elapsed between the date of commencement of treatment and the date of radiologic tumour progression according to RECIST version 1.1 by investigator's judgement or death from any cause, whichever comes first.
Overall response rate (ORR)Approximately 12 monthsOverall response rate (ORR) was regarded as the proportion of complete responses (CRs) and partial responses (PRs) according to RECIST version 1.1 criteria and using investigator's tumor assessment
Disease control rate (DCR)Approximately 12 monthsDisease control rate has been defined as the addition of (CR + PR) rate and also stable disease (SD) rate
Treatment-Related Adverse Events (TRAE)Approximately 12 monthsTreatment-Related Adverse Events (TRAE) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0, including serious adverse events (SAEs)
