Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This randomized, open-label study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Avastin (Bevacizumab) added to standard mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy in treatment-naïve patients with Stage IV metastatic colorectal cancer. According to K-RAS gene mutation status, patients will be assigned or randomized to receive either Avastin 5 mg/kg intravenously (iv) on Day 1 of each 2-week cycle or cetuximab 400 mg/m2 iv on Day 1 followed by 250 mg/m2 iv every week, in addition to mFOLFOX6 every 2 weeks. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

5 mg/kg iv on Day 1 of each 2-week cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent

Drug: mFOLFOX6
Standard mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy, 2-week cycles until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent

Experimental: K-RAS native A

Drug: bevacizumab [Avastin]
5 mg/kg iv on Day 1 of each 2-week cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent

Drug: mFOLFOX6
Standard mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy, 2-week cycles until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent

Active Comparator: K-RAS native B

Drug: cetuximab
400 mg /m2 iv on Day 1, followed by 250 mg/m2 every week until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent

Drug: mFOLFOX6
Standard mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy, 2-week cycles until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Progression-free survival: native versus mutated K-RAS; tumour assessments according to RECIST criteria [up to 4 years]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall survival [up to 4 years]

  2. Objective response rate [4 years]

  3. Safety: Incidence of adverse events [4 years]

  4. Quality of Life: European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) [up to 4 years]

  5. Progression-free survival: comparison of the two treatment regimens in the native K-RAS arms [up to 4 years]
