A Phase I/II Study of IXO With Bevacizumab in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (IXO+A)

January 10, 2014 updated by: Ottawa Hospital Research Institute

A Phase I/II Clinical Trial of Combination of Irinotecan, Xeloda and Oxaliplatin (IXO) Regimen With Avastin (Bevacizumab) in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Triplets of irinotecan, oxaliplatin and infusional 5-fluorouracil(FU)/leucovorin (LV) are associated with high response rates and long survival as first-line treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The oral fluoropyrimidine, capecitabine, is better tolerated and shows better response rates than 5-FU/LV in metastatic colorectal cancer. A phase I dose-escalation study established dose limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II doses (RPIID) of irinotecan, oxaliplatin and capecitabine. This phase I /II study is to determine dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), phase II recommended dose (RD) of IXO and bevacizumab combination and safety at the RD in an expanded cohort.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: IXO regimen + bevacizumab
This is phase I/II safety and efficacy study. There is only one arm of Irinotecan, Xeloda and Oxaliplatin (IXO) regimen with Avastin (bevacizumab)

Phase I study - identifies the safety of IXO with bevacizumab and recommended phase II dose

Phase II study - assesses efficacy and safety of IXO with bevacizumab

Other Names:
  • irinotecan - Camptosar
  • capecitabine - Xeloda
  • Oxaliplatin - Eloxatin
  • bevacizumab - Avastin
