FOLFOXIRI for Neoadjuvant Treatment of High-risk Locally Advanced Colorectal Cancer

August 18, 2021 updated by: Meng Qiu, West China Hospital

To Observe the Pathological Remission Rate and Safety of FOLFOXIRI for Neoadjuvant Treatment of High-risk Locally Advanced Colorectal Cancer With a Single-arm, Open, Prospective Phase II Exploratory Clinical Study

The main cause of recurrence after surgical treatment of colorectal cancer is distant metastasis. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has potential benefits of improving the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Preoperative chemotherapy may eradicate microscopic metastatic cancer cells earlier than adjuvant chemotherapy, reduce cancer cell spillage during surgery, and lessen the invasiveness of surgical resection. The FOLFOXIRI regimen has been shown to have a high objective efficiency in advanced colorectal cancer. This phase II trial is to explore the pathological remission rate and safety of stage II/III locally advanced colon cancer with high risk of recurrence to FOLFOXIRI regimen of neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
