Irinotecan, TAS-102 Plus Bevacizumab as a Third-Line or Beyond Therapy in mCRC Patients

September 22, 2024 updated by: Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences

Phase II Study of Irinotecan Plus Trifluridine/Tipiracil (TAS-102) in Combination With Bevacizumab as a Third-Line or Beyond Therapy for Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC)

Currently, the approved third-line treatments for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) include regorafenib, fruquintinib, and trifluridine/tipiracil(TAS-102). In recent years, several phase I/II studies evaluated the combination of TAS-102 and bevacizumab in mCRC patients who were refractory to standard therapies and showed promising antitumor efficacy and manageable toxicity. In this single-center phase II study, the investigators explored the efficacy and safety of irinotecan, TAS-102, plus bevacizumab in a third-line or beyond therapy for patients with mCRC.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The mCRC patients who are refractory to standard therapies and need a third-line or beyond therapy are eligible. Patients who previously received irinotecan while progressing during maintenance therapy are also eligible.

These patients received an intravenous infusion of irinotecan (150mg/m2 on day 1) plus bevacizumab (5 mg/kg on day 1) and an oral administration of TAS-102(30 mg/m2 given bid on days 1-5), repeated every 14 days.

The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR), and the secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.
