Background: In chemorefractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), targeted therapy such as TAS-102 and regorafenib have shown a modest survival benefit with a median progression free survival (PFS) of only about 2 months. A phase I of FOLFIRINOX3-bevacizumab (bFOLFIRINOX 3) defined the RP2D for irinotecan and showed promising activity. The aim of this phase II trial was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bFOLFIRINOX-3 in chemorefractory mCRC. Methods: The phase I trial defined the combination of bFOLFIRINOX-3 at the irinotecan’s RP2D of 70mg/m² day 1 and day 3. In phase II, patients > 18years and ECOG 0 or 1, with a pathological confirmed mCRC and experienced treatment failure after standard chemotherapies that include at least 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and irinotecan were enrolled. Absence of residual neuropathy and previous grade 3 irinotecan related toxicity was manditory. Regimen tested consisted of bevacizumab (5mg/kg), folinic acid (400mg/m2), 5-fluorouracil (2400mg/m2 for 46h), oxaliplatin (85mg/m2) and irinotecan (70mg/m² administered before and after infusional 5-fluorouracil). CT scan were performed every 2 months. Primary endpoint was the 2-months PFS. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), median PFS, overall survival (OS) and toxicity. Results: Twenty-free patients were enrolled (October 2018 to December 2022). Median age was 62 y (range: 50-70y). These patients have been treated with several previous lines of chemotherapy (median = 3, range [1-6]). Median follow up was 11 months (range [3-31.3]). The 2-months PFS was 100%. Overall response rate was 17,4%. Median PFS was 7.8 months (IC95%[5.9;9.5]) and median OS was 31.3 months (IC95% [12.4;NR]). Grade 3 adverse events occured in 43.5% with mostly diarrhea (39.1%) and neutropenia (21.7%). Grade 3 diarrhea was consistently resolving after a dose reduction of chemotherapy. The most common drug-related adverse events (all grades) were fatigue (60.9%), diarrhea (73.9%), nausea (39.1%), peripheral neuropathy (47.8%), thrombopenia (82.6%) and anemia (56.5%). Conclusions: The combination of bFOLFIRINOX-3 yielded better ORR, median PFS and OS than standard of care. The regimen was well tolerated. The study met its primary endpoint and support for future randomized phase III compared to standard of care. Clinical trial information: NCT03795311.
