Cetuximab+mFOLFOX6 VS. mFOLFOX6 Alone in RAS/BRAF Wild Type Patients With High-Risk Resectable CRLM

July 14, 2023 updated by: Xu jianmin, Fudan University

Pre-and Post-operative Cetuximab Plus mFOLFOX6 Versus mFOLFOX6 Alone in RAS/BRAF Wild Type Patients With High-Risk Resectable Colorectal Liver Metastases

For patients with initially resectable colorectal cancer liver metastases who have high-risk factors, neoadjuvant therapy is currently considered a consensus approach. However, there is ongoing debate regarding the optimal treatment strategy. Our study aims to investigate whether the addition of cetuximab to neoadjuvant chemotherapy improves outcomes compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone. The objective of this phase III clinical trial is to determine whether the combination of cetuximab and mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy is superior to neoadjuvant mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy alone for patients with initially resectable colorectal cancer liver metastases who have wild-type RAS/BRAF and high-risk factors.
