Study of Capecitabine and Cetuximab as First-Line Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Wild Type Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog (KRAS) Colorectal Cancer

October 18, 2022 updated by: Translational Genomics Research Institute

Phase II, Multi-Center, Open-Label, Prospective Study of Capecitabine and Cetuximab as First-Line Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Wild Type KRAS Colorectal Cancer Who Are Considered Nonoptimal Candidates or Are Intolerant to a First-Line Oxaliplatin/Irinotecan Regimen

The combination of capecitabine and cetuximab as first-line therapy will result in improved progression free survival compared to single agent capecitabine in patients with KRAS wild type colorectal cancer. Patients who are not able or willing to take Oxaliplatin/Irinotecan combination therapy are eligible for this study.
