Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

This study consist of 4-months induction first-line chemotherapy with the G.O.N.O. FOLFOXIRI regimen plus bevacizumab followed by maintenance with bevacizumab or bevacizumab plus metronomic chemotherapy (with capecitabine and cyclophosphamide) in mCRC patients. The main objective of this study is to preliminarily evaluate the potential effects of the combination of a metronomic chemotherapy with capecitabine and cyclophosphamide to maintenance bevacizumab on pharmacodynamic and clinical parameters among mCRC patients.

The present trial is designed to determine whether pre-treatment with PledOx lowers the frequency and severity of side effects from FOLFOX6 administration in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The efficacy of PledOx will be assessed when added to FOLFOX6 chemotherapy as first line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. This study was performed in multiple parts/phases. Part 1 was an open dose-escalation study with the doses 2, 5 and 10 micromol/kg of calmangafodipir. No study outcomes were planned for this part. In part 2a, participants randomly received either Placebo, 2 or 10 micromol/kg of calmangafodipir. In part 2b, participants randomly received either Placebo, 2 or 5 micromol/kg of calmangafodipir. The overall intent of the study was to compare the effect of antioxidant agent PledOx against placebo in one of three different doses/combinations (2 micromol/kg, 5/10 micromol/kg, 2/5/10 micromol/kg vs. placebo, in the first 8 cycles of FOLFOX6 treatment

This open-label, single arm, multicenter study evaluated the resection rate in participants with colorectal cancer and previously untreated unresectable liver-only metastases after adding bevacizumab to 5-FU based doublet chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant setting. Participants receive standard 5-FU based chemotherapy plus Avastin bevacizumab 5 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) every 2 weeks for a maximum of 12 cycles combined pre- and postoperatively, unless they experienced progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity.

This open-label, randomized, multicenter, Phase 2 study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of MEHD7945A when combined with FOLFIRI (folinic acid [leucovorin], 5-fluorouracil [5-FU], and irinotecan) chemotherapy as compared to cetuximab plus FOLFIRI in participants with Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog (KRAS) wild-type mCRC who have progressed after first-line oxaliplatin-containing chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Participants will be randomized to receive FOLFIRI chemotherapy plus either MEHD7945A or cetuximab. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

The purpose of this study is to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of 4SC-201 (Resminostat) in combination with FOLFIRI and whether 4SC-201 (Resminostat) is effective and safe in combination FOLFIRI versus FOLFIRI alone in the treatment of advanced colorectal carcinoma.

This study proposes to determine the safety of the administration of E7820 plus cetuximab and explore the MTD of the combination in a Phase Ib study. In addition, the efficacy of this combination will be explored in patients with colorectal cancer in the Phase II proof of concept phase of the study.

Primary objective:To assess the efficacy, defined as overall survival, of sequential versus combination chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). Methodology Open, randomised multicenter phase III study. Randomisation by centre will be centralized. 820 patiënts with histologically proven advanced CRC; not amenable to curative surgery. Measurable or evaluable disease. Age 18 years and above. WHO performance status 0-2. Test products: Arm A: First line: capecitabine capecitabine 1250 mg/m2 orally b.i.d. on day 1-14 (q3),until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Second line: irinotecan 350 mg/m2 IV infusion on day 1 (q3),until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Third line: oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 IV infusion on day 1 and capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally b.i.d. on day 1-14 (q3). Arm B: First line: irinotecan 250 mg/m2 IV infusion in 30 minutes on day 1 and capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally b.i.d. on day 1-14 (q3), until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Second line: oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 IV on day 1 and capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally b.i.d. on day 1-14 (q3), until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients will be followed by CT-scan every 9 weeks for response while on treatment, or at any other moment when progression is suspected. After cessation of chemotherapy, patients will be followed every 3 months until death. Clinical and laboratory toxicity/symptomatology will be graded according to NCI common criteria.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying cetuximab and/or bevacizumab when given together with combination chemotherapy to compare how well they work in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab and bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Cetuximab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving monoclonal antibodies together with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with cetuximab and/or bevacizumab in treating patients with colorectal cancer.

This is a study to assess the efficacy and safety of the addition of cetuximab to the combined regimen of capecitabine, oxaliplatin and bevacizumab in patients with previously untreated advanced colorectal carcinoma. It is an open, comparative study, comparing the effects of capecitabine, oxaliplatin and bevacizumab to those of the same regimen plus cetuximab. Seven hundred fifty patients will be included. Treatment will continue until disease progression or serious toxicity and follow up will continue until death. It is anticipated that the addition of cetuximab will lead to an increase in progression free survival.

In Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer the following treatments first-line Folfiri+Cetuximab first-line Folfox6 + Cetuximab will be concerning efficacy and safety. The trial compares Folfiri + Cetuximab and Folfox6 + Cetuximab concerning efficacy and safety as first
