Phase II Trial of FOLFOXIGIL Versus FOLFOXIRI as First-line Therapy in Patients With mCRC

FOLFOXIRI in Combination With GM-CSF and IL-2 (FOLFOXIGIL) Versus FOLFOXIRI as First-line Treatment for Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: a Phase II Trial by the FNF Team.

A randomized phase II trial of FOLFOXIRI in Combination With GM-CSF and IL-2 (FOLFOXIGIL) Versus FOLFOXIRI as First-line Treatment for Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

Study Overview

• Status: Withdrawn
• Conditions: Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Irinotecan; Drug: Oxaliplatin; Drug: Levoleucovorin; Drug: 5-FU; Drug: GM-CSF; Drug: IL-2

Detailed Description

The triple drug regimen FOLFOXIRI (irinotecan, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and folinate) for the first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer has shown a significant increase in response rate and overall survival compared to FOLFIRI and FOLFOX. The combination of GOLF chemotherapy with GM-CSF and IL-2（GOLFIG regimen） has shown more active than the standard FOLFOX chemotherapy in first-line mCRC patients，through the chemoimmunomodulatory effects. SO the FOLFOXIGIL chemoimmunotherapy regimen was designed with the same principle to evaluate the antitumor frontline efficacy in comparison with the FOLFOXIRI regimen as first-line treatment of mCRC patients. This is a multicenter, randomized controlled, double-blind, phase II trial.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 10 months	PFS by investigator-reported measurements according to CT image. PFS was calculated from the day of randomization to the date of first documented progression disease (PD) , or death from any cause. PD was defined as Overall Response by RECIST criteria v1.1 according to CT image.	PFS rate at 10 months from study entry

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Response rate	CR + PR rate according to the RECIST version 1.1 guidelines.	up to 12 months
Toxicity	Toxicity assessed using the NCI common toxicity criteria, version 4.01	up to 12 months
Overall survival time	OS was calculated from the date of randomization to death from any cause.	Up to 30 months
Progression free survival	PFS was calculated from the day of randomization to the date of first documented progression, or death from any cause.	Up to 18 months
Quality of life (QLQ C30)	Scores according to EORTC QLQ-C30 scoring manual	Quality of life was evaluated every 2 weeks during treatment and every 8 weeks during follow up (36 months)
