Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether systemic chemotherapy combined with hepatic arterial infusion with floxuridine and dexamethasone can increase the complete resection rate (R0) and improve the overall survival in patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most leading causes of cancer death in China. Although multiple treatment modalities including surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy have been developed, the prognosis of advanced CRC still remains poor. While around 30% of resectable advanced CRC could be cured. This study is designed to compare perioperative FOLFIRI versus adjuvant FOLFIRI in resectable advanced CRC who exposed to oxaliplatin in open-label, phase III mode.

The study is an double blind, randomized, multicenter phase 3 trial. The efficacy analyses are based on 570 Chinese patients with RAS wt mCRC treated with mFOLFOX-6 ± cetuximab. Study treatment continues until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (ie, not for a fixed number of courses). The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free survival (PFS) time according to RECIST 1.0; key secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS) time, overall response rate (ORR), and safety/tolerability.

This phase III trial studies how well combination chemotherapy, bevacizumab, and/or atezolizumab work in treating patients with deficient deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mismatch repair colorectal cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin calcium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bevacizumab may stop or slow colorectal cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy, bevacizumab, and atezolizumab may work better in treating patients with colorectal cancer.

In first-line metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), baseline prognostic factors allowing death risk and strategy stratification are lacking. In this setting, a simple biological scoring system have recently been proposed, including LDH and CD138 binary status seric values, identifying one third of patients with worst prognostic. Intensified-chemotherapy strategies, combining 5-fluorouracile, Oxaliplatin, Irinotecan and Bevacizumab, are beneficial for patients having a bad prognostic, defined by the BRAFV600E mutation, concerning 5-8% of first line mCRC. For the 30% of patients with LDH-CD138 elevated score, the purpose of CLavSyn phase II study is to compare the PFS of one intensified arm (FOLFOXIRI Bevacizumab) to one standard chemotherapy arm, in order to better discriminate treatment strategies, at metastatic diagnosis.

The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of E7386 in participants with solid tumor including CRC.

Adjuvant chemotherapy was unnecessary in pathological stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer following initial treatment of surgery without high risk factors of recurrences. The treatment efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy for pT1-3N0M0 colorectal cancer following preoperational chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy remains unclear. Part of clinical local advanced colorectal cancer(cTxN1-2M0), which turn out to be pT0-3N0M0 after preoperational chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, might not really need adjuvant chemotherapy due to the down-stage efficacy of the preoperational treatments, or the misleading by lymph nodes false-positive imaging diagnosis.

The study aims to compare the effects of chemoradiation versus radical surgery in treating retro-peritoneal or para-aortic lymph node metastasis in colorectal cancer. By prolonging patients' progression-free survival, local control rate and overall survival, investigators can conclude the best regimen for colorectal cancer patients.

Colorectal cancer is the 3rd most common cancer in France and the 2nd cause of death from cancer. Between 30 to 60% of patients develop limited or predominant liver metastases. Surgical resection of these metastases, only curative treatment is not immediately possible in 10-15% of cases. In unresectable patients, current palliative treatments are based on systemic chemotherapy associated or not with the targeted therapies (anti-EGFR (panitumumab), anti-VEGF (bevacizumab)). In this patient population, special attention was paid to intensified treatment regimens in order to improve their efficiency and improving the tumoral response rate, the intensity of the response and its earliness correlate with improved overall and progression-free survival. The intra-arterial use of oxaliplatin coupled with IV chemotherapy has yielded OR levels of 64% in patients having survived one or more lines of chemotherapy IV and 62% in patients who have progressed on oxaliplatin IV. In addition, the HIA administration of oxaliplatin limits systemic and especially neurological toxicities, thanks to a greater hepatic clearance. In conclusion, the combination of systemic chemotherapy, targeted therapy and HIAC with oxaliplatin has showed promising efficacy results associated with good tolerance from the first line onwards. Indeed, we can expect from the Phase II recent data, a control rate close to 100%, with high response rates associated with early maturity and depth responses as well as prolonged survival. However, to date, in the absence of randomized trial testing this combination, this strategy does not have sufficient evidence to be integrated in our routine practices, and HIAC remains limited to a few expert centers in treatment catch-up.
