Background: BBP has been recognized as one of the standard 2nd-line treatment strategy for pts with mCRC based on the ML18147 trial. However, this trial excluded pts with disease progression < 3 months in the 1st-line BEV-containing chemotherapy. Methods: The subjects were mCRC pts who received the 2nd-line chemotherapy after experiencing disease progression < 100 days in the 1st-line BEV-containing chemotherapy between Apr 2010 and Dec 2016. This multi-institutional retrospective study compared the efficacy and safety between the 2nd-line chemotherapy with BEV (BBP) and without BEV (non-BBP), adjusting ECOG PS, WBC, ALP, number of metastatic sites, RAS status, and sidedness using Cox proportional hazard model. Results: 61 pts were evaluated. Patients' backgrounds were numerically different between BBP (n = 36) and non-BBP (n = 25), such as PS (0-1/2≤/unknown: 89/8/3 and 56/40/4%) and RASstatus (wild/mutant/unknown: 28/56/16 and 76/16/8%). There were no significant differences in age (median: 59 and 57), sex (male/female: 53/47 and 32/68%), tumor location (right/left: 44/56 and 40/60%), disease status (stage IV/recurrence: 67/33 and 84/16%), number of metastatic sites (1/2≤: 33/67 and 20/80%), the 1st-line regimens (oxaliplatin-based/irinotecan-based: 83/17 and 96/4%) between two arms. The 2nd-line chemotherapy regimens with EGFR antibody-containing/cytotoxic alone were 64/36% in non-BBP, respectively. The response rates were 5.9 and 8.7% in BBP and non-BBP. Median PFS were 3.7 and 2.8 months (HR 0.83, 95%CI 0.49-1.41, p = 0.486; adjusted HR 0.97, 95%CI 0.48-1.96, p = 0.932), respectively. The proportions of pts who received subsequent chemotherapy were 58 and 32% (p = 0.068). Median OS were 7.6 and 5.4 months (HR 0.70, 95%CI 0.41-1.19, p = 0.193; adjusted HR 0.65, 95%CI 0.34-1.25, p = 0.195). Common grade 3-4 adverse events (AEs) were neutropenia (11/24%) and anemia (3/16%), and other AEs were similar between two arms. Conclusions: The 2nd-line chemotherapy for pts with early progression in the 1st-line BEV-containing chemotherapy showed poor outcomes regardless of strategy.
