Phase II Study of Combination Chemotherapy with Biweekly Cetuximab and Irinotecan for Pre-treated Metastatic Colorectal Cancern Harboring Wild-type KRAS

摘要

Standard weekly cetuximab and irinotecan is an effective regimen in heavily pre-treated patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of combination chemotherapy with biweekly cetuximab and irinotecan in patients with pre-treated metastatic colorectal cancer harboring wild-type KRAS. A total of 30 patients will be enrolled at four medical institutions. The primary endpoint is response rate. The secondary endpoints include adverse events, progression-free survival and overall survival. The pharmacokinetics of cetuximab will also be evaluated in five patients.
