Background. Previously, it was demonstrated that serum levels of tumor markers, CEA and CA19-9, correlated with chemotherapy. Consequently, it has been hypothesized that dynamic monitoring of changes in these markers may predict the shrinkage or growth of colorectal cancers. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed CEA and CA19-9 serum levels in patients with advanced colorectal cancer who received cetuximab in combination with chemotherapy. These levels were evaluated at various time points to identify their potential to serve as early efficacy predictors during treatment and early predictors of disease progression. Patients and Methods. Measurements of tumor markers, CEA and CA 19-9, in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (n=73) who received cetuximab plus folinic acid, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin or irinotecan (FOLFOX4/FOLFIRI) as a first-line treatment at our center were retrospectively analyzed. These levels were also compared with objective responses according to the World Health Organization criteria. Initially, 65 patients had elevated CEA levels (>5 ng/ml), and 59 patients had elevated levels of CA19-9 (>37 U/ml). A total of 172 cycles and 165 cycles of computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging observations were available for review from these two patient groups. Results. After completing three cycles of treatment, the best diagnosis of cetuximab resistance was achieved when CEA increased by 35% (efficacy, 83.33%; sensitivity, 75.41%) and when CA19-9 increased by 28% (efficacy, 80.00%; sensitivity, 84.31%). Next, the efficacy of cetuximab at the time of diagnosis (at the first imaging examination/after three cycles of treatment) was evaluated after the first cycle of chemotherapy. When CEA decreased by 60% from its baseline level, the best effective rate and sensitivity were observed (63.64% and 80.95%, respectively). Similarly, when CA19-9 was 45% lower than its baseline level, the best effective rate and sensitivity were observed (84.21% and 93.18%, respectively). To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS), levels of both CEA and CA19-9 were evaluated after the third cycle of chemotherapy. Increases of 35% and 28%, respectively, resulted in a shorter PFS period compared with the other patients (3.15 months vs. 9.10 months, respectively; P<0.0001). Conversely, when the evaluation was performed after the first cycle of chemotherapy, patients exhibiting a 60% decrease in CEA and a 45% decrease in CA19-9 had a longer PFS period (11.13 months vs. 8.10 months, respectively; P=0.0395). Conclusions. CEA and CA19-9 are useful indicators of therapeutic curative effect from cetuximab combined with first-line chemotherapy. These markers also helped assess cetuximab resistance and served as early predictors of initial treatment effectiveness. Furthermore, a simultaneous increase or decrease in the levels of both indicators was consistent with the observed differences in PFS.

602 Background: The Kyushu Study group of Clinical Cancer conducted a phase II study that evaluated the FIREFOX regimen. (KSCC0701, Akagi et al, J Clin Oncol 28:15s, 2010). This study demonstrated the efficacy and mild neurotoxicity of this regimen. The present study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the FIREFOX plus bevacizumab (bev). Methods: Eligibility criteria included histologically confirmed advanced colorectal cancer, ECOG PS 0-2 and adequate bone marrow, renal and hepatic function. Patients (pts) received an alternating regimen of 4 cycles of mFOLFOX-6 plus bev (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, leucovorin 200 mg/m2, bev 5 mg/kg d1 followed by 400 mg/m2 bolus 5-FU and a 46-hr 2,400 mg/m2 5-FU infusion every 2 weeks) followed by 4 cycles of FOLFIRI plus bev (oxaliplatin replaced with irinotecan 150 mg/m2 d1). This schedule was repeated until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression occurred. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival. (UMIN000001312) Results: Of the 52 pts enrolled from May 2008 to July 2009. Two of the patients did not fulfill the eligibility criteria. M/F, 30/20; median age, 59.5 years (range 37 - 75); ECOG PS 0/1/2, 46/4/0. The median number of administration cycles was 14 (range, 2 - 44). Response rate (RECIST criteria) for CR, PR, SD, PD and NE were 2 (4%), 28 (56%), 14 (28%), 4 (8%) and 2 (4%), respectively. An overall response rate was 60% (95% CI: 45 - 74%). Median progression-free survival was14.2 M (95% CI: 10.6 M-16.3 M) and median overall survival was 27.5 M (95% CI; 22.4 M – not determined). The 2-year survival rate was 56.8%. Of the 52 pts evaluated for toxicity. The most common grade 3-4 adverse events were leukopenia (7.7%), neutropenia (32.7%), anemia (1.9%), fatigue (9.6%), anorexia (13.5%), stomatitis (3.8%), neurotoxicity (3.8%), hypertension (1.9%), diarrhea (7.7%), febrile neutropenia (3.8%), nausea (9.6%), vomiting (5.8%), hypersensitivity (3.8%), and thromboembolism (1.9%). Conclusions: The results of this phase II study show that the FIREFOX plus bev regimen is effective and well tolerated in the first-line treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. The low rate of neurotoxicity is also promising.

TPS4115 Background: Previous studies showed that high dose vitamin C especially when administered intravenously might have anti-cancer effect. A recent preclinical study found that human colorectal cancer cells harboring KRAS or BRAF mutations are selectively killed by high dose vitamin C. Our phase I dose-escalation and expansion study has shown that high dose (up to 1.5g/kg) intravenous vitamin C with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI is well tolerated in patients with colorectal or gastric cancer. This trial is a randomized, multicenter, phase Ⅲ study of high dose vitamin C infusion combined with FOLFOX +/- bevacizumab versus FOLFOX +/- bevacizumab as first-line therapy in patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Methods: This study has enrolled patients with histologically confirmed metastatic adenocarcinoma of colorectum, normal G6PD status and no prior treatment for metastatic disease. 432 patients are randomized 1:1 into one of two groups. Patients in the control group are treated with mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m² d1 concurrent with leucovorin 400 mg/m², followed by bolus 5FU 400 mg/m² d1, followed by infusional 5FU 2400 mg/m² over 46 hours) with or without bevacizumab (5mg/kg, d1) every 2 weeks. Patients in the experimental group are treated with vitamin C intravenously (1.5g/kg/day, d1-3) in combination with mFOLFOX6 with or without bevacizumab every 2 weeks. Randomization is stratified by the location of primary site (left-sided or right-sided) and treatment with bevacizumab (with or without). The primary endpoint is progression free survival (assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints are overall survival, response rate, assessment of treatment-related adverse events, progression free survival and overall survival in RAS or BRAF mutant patients. Genome, microbiome and metabolome are also assessed. Clinical trial information: NCT02969681 .

PURPOSE: In a previous study of treatment for advanced colorectal cancer, the LV5FU2 regimen, comprising leucovorin (LV) plus bolus and infusional fluorouracil (5FU) every 2 weeks, was superior to the standard North Central Cancer Treatment Group/Mayo Clinic 5-day bolus 5FU/LV regimen. This phase III study investigated the effect of combining oxaliplatin with LV5FU2, with progression-free survival as the primary end point. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Four hundred twenty previously untreated patients with measurable disease were randomized to receive a 2-hour infusion of LV (200 mg/m2/d) followed by a 5FU bolus (400 mg/m2/d) and 22-hour infusion (600 mg/m2/d) for 2 consecutive days every 2 weeks, either alone or together with oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 as a 2-hour infusion on day 1. RESULTS: Patients allocated to oxaliplatin plus LV5FU2 had significantly longer progression-free survival (median, 9.0 v 6.2 months; P = .0003) and better response rate (50.7% v 22.3%; P = .0001) when compared with the control arm. The improvement in overall survival did not reach significance (median, 16.2 v 14.7 months; P = .12). LV5FU2 plus oxaliplatin gave higher frequencies of National Cancer Institute common toxicity criteria grade 3/4 neutropenia (41.7% v 5.3% of patients), grade 3/4 diarrhea (11.9% v 5.3%), and grade 3 neurosensory toxicity (18.2% v 0%), but this did not result in impairment of quality of life (QoL). Survival without disease progression or deterioration in global health status was longer in patients allocated to oxaliplatin treatment (P = .004). CONCLUSION: The LV5FU2-oxaliplatin combination seems beneficial as first-line therapy in advanced colorectal cancer, demonstrating a prolonged progression-free survival with acceptable tolerability and maintenance of QoL.

Abstract Background Patient selection for addition of anti-EGFR therapy to chemotherapy for patients with RAS and BRAF wildtype metastatic colorectal cancer can still be optimised. Here we investigate the effect of anti-EGFR therapy on survival in different consensus molecular subtypes (CMSs) and stratified by primary tumour location. Methods Retrospective analyses, using the immunohistochemistry-based CMS classifier, were performed in the COIN (first-line oxaliplatin backbone with or without cetuximab) and PICCOLO trial (second-line irinotecan with or without panitumumab). Tumour tissue was available for 323 patients (20%) and 349 (41%), respectively. Results When using an irinotecan backbone, anti-EGFR therapy is effective in both CMS2/3 and CMS4 in left-sided primary tumours (progression-free survival (PFS): HR 0.44, 95% CI 0.26–0.75, P = 0.003 and HR 0.12, 95% CI 0.04–0.36, P < 0.001, respectively) and in CMS4 right-sided tumours (PFS HR 0.17, 95% CI 0.04–0.71, P = 0.02). Efficacy using an oxaliplatin backbone was restricted to left-sided CMS2/3 tumours (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.36–0.96, P = 0.034). Conclusions The subtype-specific efficacy of anti-EGFR therapy is dependent on the chemotherapy backbone. This may provide the possibility of subtype-specific treatment strategies for a more optimal use of anti-EGFR therapy.

e15586 Background: In Saudi Arabia, the incidence of colorectal cancer has been increased over the past few years. The optimal treatment beyond the second line is not fully understood. To the best of our knowledge, the efficacy and disease outcomes of triflurodine/tipiracil in Saudi patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC) has not been studied yet. Our study is a real-life practice evaluation of the efficacy of triflurodine/tipiracil in patients with refractory mCRC. Moreover, the prognosis and the prognostic significance of the different clinical variables have been analyzed. Methods: A retrospective, multi-centers ( 5 centers representative of Saudi Arabia )observational study in patients with mCRC who have received triflurodine/tipiracil beyond oxaliplatin & Irinotecan-based chemotherapy between December 2018-December 2020.We aimed to assess the response to triflurodine/tipiracil, to evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS ), the overall survival (OS), and the associated factors of prognostic significance. Results:The data of 100 patients with refractory mCRC who has received triflurodine/tipiracil have been analyzed. The mean age was 55.2 +11.8 years. Forty-two patients were (42%) females and 58 (58%) were male patients. Sigmoid was the most common primary site of cancer in 35 (35%) patients, followed by rectum 29 (29%). Peritoneal metastasis was present in 17 (23.3%) patients ,liver in 51(56.6%) and lung in 39 (50.7%). Metastatic sites were ≥ 2 in 45 (45%) patients. Metastatic lesions were ≥ 5 in 65 (65%) patients. Xelox chemotherapy regimen was the most commonly used first-line chemotherapy which represents 43%, while Folfiri or Xeliri combination was the most used second line in 57 (60%). For the third line, Folfox or Xelox was used in 81 (83.5%) patients. The fourth line was given to 49 (67.1%). For first-line biological agents, Cetuximab was used most frequently 31 (46.3%).Evaluation of the response to treatment with triflurodine/tipiracil revealed one patient (1%) with a complete response,3 patients (3%) with partial response, 28 (28%) patients with stable disease, and 66 (66%) showed progressive disease. The estimated median progression-free survival was 5 months ( 3.839 - 6.161) and the median overall survival was 12 months (9.732-14.268). The log-rank analysis showed that the baseline neutrophils ≤ 75 % ( P-value= 0.0092) and low hemoglobin level (P-value= 0.0245) were strongly associated with a higher survival. By multivariate Cox regression analysis, the neutrophil count ≤ 75 % was the only independent predictor for survival. Conclusions: Trifluridine/tipiracil is effective in patients with refractory mCRC. The low neutrophil count might predict a better overall survival.

Background. The most effective treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is restricted in microsatellite instability (MSI-H) subsets of advanced colorectal cancer, but MSI-H only accounts for 4-5% among them. ICIs are completely ineffective in advanced colorectal cancer patients with microsatellite stable (MSS), according to literatures published. Regorafenib is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKIs) that could normalize tumor blood vessels by inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor receptor and its downstream, thus improving cytotoxic T cell infiltration in tumor microenvironment, which has a synergistic effect with ICIs. Toripalimab is a type of anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody produced by Junshi Biosciences in China. Herein, we aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of regorafenib combined with toripalimab in the third-line and beyond treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. Methods. We evaluated the outcomes of MSS patients with advanced colorectal cancer who received regorafenib combined with toripalimab in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from June 2019 to January 2021. These patients had previously received at least second-line treatment; the regimens were oxaliplatin and irinotecan-based chemotherapy and/or accompanied with bevacizumab or cetuximab. Thirty-three patients were treated orally with regorafenib 80 mg or 120 mg once daily for 21 days, 28 days as a cycle, combined with intravenous toripalimab until disease progression or intolerant to adverse reactions. We used the Kaplan–Meier method to estimate the rate of progression-free survival (PFS) and log-rank method to do a statistical test of the survival curve. The Cox regression model was used to analyze the influence of multiple factors on PFS. The primary endpoints were objective remission rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). The secondary endpoints were the incidence of adverse reactions and median progression-free survival (mPFS). Results. The evaluation of treatment effects was assessed according to RECIST 1.1. Four patients (12.12%) got partial response, twelve patients (36.36%) experienced stable disease, and seventeen patients (51.52%) suffered progressive disease. ORR was 12.12% and DCR was 48.48%. mPFS was 113 days (95% CI: 0–272.1). In univariate analysis, patients who had previously received second-line treatment were significantly better than those who had received third-line or more treatment ( p = 0.005 ). Lung metastasis was a negative factor in combined therapy ( p = 0.032 ). Five patients without previous treatment of bevacizumab were effective. Previous treatment without bevacizumab showed a trend of effective when combination therapy ( p = 0.034 ). It was also a positive factor that the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG) score was 0 ( p = 0.034 ). Multivariable Cox regression analysis showed the number of previous chemotherapy lines and excision of primary lesions were independent prognostic factors. The most common treatment-related adverse reactions were hand-foot syndrome (33.33%), liver dysfunction (27.27), hypothyroidism (24.24%), fever (24.24%), fatigue (21.21%), leukopenia (15.15%), hypertension (12.12%), platelet count decreased (6.06%), diarrhea (3.03%), and myocarditis (3.03%); one patient stopped treatment as myocarditis. The incidence of grade 3/4 adverse reactions was 9.09%. Conclusions. Regorafenib combined with toripalimab has a promising effect in the third-line and beyond treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. In the early use of combination therapy, excision of primary lesions can have a positive impact in regorafenib and toripalimab combination. This treatment-related adverse reactions are tolerant in combined therapy.
