Background: FOLFOX4 combined with cet for mCRC patients (pts) with KRAS wild tumor demonstrated the prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) with higher response rate (RR) in the OPUS study. To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the cet plus mFOLFOX6, we conducted a multi-center phase II study of Japanese pts. Methods: In this trial, pts with KRAS wild type tumor and receiving no prior chemotherapy for mCRC were treated with cet (initial dose 400, and 250 mg/m2 weekly) followed by mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin 85mg/m2, l-leucovorin 200 mg/m2, fluorouracil, as 400mg/m2 intravenous bolus then 2,400mg/m246-hour continuous infusion). The treatment was repeated every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was RR evaluated by the external review board according to RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints included PFS, OS, % chronological change at the base line and safety. Results: A total of 57 pts were enrolled from August 2010 to September 2011. The median age was 60 years, 65% of pts were male, and ECOG PS 0 was observed in 91% of pts. All pts had EGFR-expressing disease. The median treatment courses were 21 (cet) and 10 (FOLFOX). The RR was 66.7% (95%CI, 53.4 to 77.7). Complete remission was observed in 5 cases (9.3%). The median PFS was 11.1 months (95%CI, 8.0 to 14.7). The early tumor shrinkage (ETS; over 20% regression at 8 weeks) was observed in 80% of pts, and the PFS for pts with ETS was statistically significantly prolonged as compared with pts without ETS (median PFS, 11.5 vs. 3.7 months, respectively; p = 0.0002). The OS was not reached at the time of median follow-up (19.2 months). Grade 3 or worse adverse events were neutropenia (48.2%), leucopenia (22.2%), rash acneform (20.4%), and peripheral neuropathy (18.5%). Conclusions: The first-line cet+mFOLFOX6 has an acceptable safety profile and demonstrates advantages in response rate for pts with KRAS wild tumor. The first-line cet+mFOLFOX6 should be considered as one of the recommended treatment regimens for pts with KRAS wild tumor. Update survival data will be presented.
