Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Treatment With FOLFIRI-aflibercept Compared to Initial Treatment With FOLFIRI-aflibercept (for 6 Cycles) Followed by Maintenance With 5FU-aflibercept, in an Elderly Population With mCRC After Failure of an Oxaliplatin-based Regimen (AFEMA)
April 12, 2023 updated by: Spanish Cooperative Group for the Treatment of Digestive Tumours (TTD)
Randomised, Multicentre, Phase II Pilot Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Treatment With FOLFIRI-aflibercept Compared to Initial Treatment With FOLFIRI-aflibercept (for 6 Cycles) Followed by Maintenance With 5FU-aflibercept, in an Elderly Population With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) After Failure of an Oxaliplatin-based Regimen
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of treatment with FOLFIRI-aflibercept compared to initial treatment with FOLFIRI-aflibercept (for 6 cycles) followed by maintenance with 5FU-aflibercept, in an elderly population with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) after failure of an oxaliplatin-based regimen
