571 Background: The clinical benefit and safety profile associated with raltitrexed in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) were established. However, safety information of raltitrexed in Chinese patients is rare. We aimed to assess the safety of raltitrexed monotherapy in Chinese patients with advanced CRC. Methods: This single-arm, open-label, multi-center, phase IV trial was conducted in 13 hospitals across China between March 2011 and July 2014. Patients with locally advanced or recurrent and metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) received raltitrexed (3mg/m2) as a 15-min infusion on day 1, every 21 days. Treatment was continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary objective was safety and the secondary objectives were disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: A total of 215 patients were enrolled, and the safety was assessed in 205 patients. 92 patients had 394 Adverse events (AEs) during the study. A majority (94.4%) of AEs was grade 1/2 and only 5.3% was grade 3/4. Most AEs were either resolved spontaneously or treated successfully with standard medical interventions. Severe AEs were reported by 5.8% (12/205) of patients. The most commonly reported AEs were increase of transaminases, leukopenia, nausea and vomiting. Serum transaminase elevation, an important safety concern associated with raltitrexed therapy, were transient, self-limiting and manageable. No deaths were reported during the study. The DCR in second-line and third-line therapy by raltitrexed reached 49.5% and 37.4%, respectively. The median PFS in second-line and third-line therapy was 1.43 months and 1.47 months, respectively. The median OS was 13.6 months and 8.9 months, respectively. Conclusions: Raltitrexed monotherapy is a safe, well-tolerated and convenient therapy option for Chinese patients. The treatment-associated toxicity is manageable and does not lead to discontinuation of treatment in oncology practice.

BackgroundFor a majority of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with MS stable (MSS) or mismatch repair proficient (pMMR), the role of immunotherapy is undetermined. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab when added to XELOX chemotherapy plus bevacizumab or regorafenib as first-line therapy for mCRC.Materials and MethodsMedical records of mCRC patients who received camrelizumab and XELOX plus bevacizumab or regorafenib at the First Hospital of Quanzhou Affiliated to Fujian Medical University between June 1, 2019, and April 30, 2021, were retrospectively collected. The objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and side effects of the drug were recorded and reviewed.ResultsTwenty-five eligible patients received combination therapy, including bevacizumab in 19 patients and regorafenib in 6. Twenty-one patients had pMMR/MSS and one MSI-H. Of the 25 patients who could be evaluated for efficacy, 18 (72%) achieved PR, 6 (24%) achieved SD, and 1 (4%) achieved PD. The ORR and DCR were 72% (18/25) and 96% (24/25), respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 11.2 months (95% CI 8.9–13.9), and OS had not yet been reached. The combination regimen of regorafenib in six (24%) patients was unassociated with treatment outcomes. Most AEs were either grade 1 or 2, and treatment-related grade 3 toxicities were observed in 8/25 (32%) patients.ConclusionCamrelizumab combined with XELOX plus bevacizumab or regorafenib was feasible, producing high rates of responses as first-line therapy in unselected Chinese patients with MSS mCRC. The toxicities were generally tolerable and manageable. Prospective randomized trials with large sample sizes are needed to evaluate these findings.

e15585 Background: A previous phase 1b trial has shown encouraging efficacy of regorafenib plus nivolumab in patients with microsatellite stable/mismatch repair proficient (MSS/pMMR) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this regimen in Chinese patients in the real world. Methods: We retrospectively identified patients with MSS/pMMR mCRC who received at least one dose of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors plus regorafenib from 5/2019 to 2/2021 in 10 Chinese medical centers. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and the safety. Results: Fifty-two patients were identified. Liver metastases were presented in 35 patients (67%). A total of 48 patients (92%) received regorafenib plus a PD-1 inhibitor as the third or later line treatment. At the data cut-off, 11 patients (21%) were still on treatment. Other patients terminated treatment because of progressive disease (45%), treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) (14%) or treatment-unrelated deaths (6%). The median treatment cycle was 3 (range, 1-18). At a median follow-up of 4.9 months, the median OS was 17.3 months (95% CI, 10.2-NR) and the median PFS was 3.1 months (95%CI, 2.5-6.0). Baseline liver metastases were associated with inferior PFS (2.7 versus 6.3 months, p <0.05), but not OS (17.3 months versus NR, p =0.6). Among 38 patients evaluable for response, two patients (5%) achieved partial response, and 17 patients (45%) experienced stable disease as the best response. The DCR was 50% (95%CI, 5.0-NR) and was similar among different PD-1 inhibitors (Table). TRAEs were observed in 30 patients (58%). Fatigue (21%), hand-foot syndrome (19%) and rash (13%) were the most common TRAEs. Eight patients (15%) experienced grade 3-4 TRAEs, including rash (n=3), hand-foot syndrome (n=2), hypertension (n=1), myocardial enzyme elevation (n=1) and visual field loss (n=1). No treatment-related death occurred. Conclusions: The combination of regorafenib plus PD-1 inhibitors was generally tolerated and exhibited potential benefit in terms of OS and DCR. The presence of baseline liver metastases was predictive for shorter PFS but requires further investigation. Disease control rate of different PD-1 inhibitors.[Table: see text]

AbstractRadioembolization has become a widespread treatment modality for both primary and metastatic hepatic malignancies. Although the majority of data and indication for yttrium-90 radioembolization have been for hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic colorectal cancer, radioembolization with yttrium-90 has rapidly expanded into the treatment options for multiple tumor types with metastases to the liver. This article reviews the clinical data and expanding utilization of radioembolization for rare metastatic diseases with an emphasis on efficacy and safety.

Purpose This large, multinational study aimed to confirm in a community practice setting the efficacy and safety of cetuximab plus irinotecan in patients with epidermal growth factor–expressing metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who had recently failed an irinotecan-containing regimen. Patients and Methods The primary objective was to determine the progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 12 weeks. The initial cetuximab dose was 400 mg/m2 and was followed weekly by 250 mg/m2; irinotecan (according to prestudy regimen) was given weekly (125 mg/m2 weekly for 4 of 6 weeks), every 2 weeks (180 mg/m2 each), or every 3 weeks (350 mg/m2 each). Results The intention-to-treat/safety population comprised 1,147 treated patients who received irinotecan weekly (n = 93); every 2 weeks (n = 670); every 3 weeks (n = 356); or another dose (n = 28). The PFS rate at 12 weeks was 61%, and the median survival was 9.2 months. Treatment was generally well tolerated. The most common treatment-related grades 3 to 4 adverse events were diarrhea (19%), neutropenia (10%), rash (7%), and asthenia (6%). The rate of grades 3 to 4 infusion-related reactions (IRRs; composite adverse event category) was 1% for patients who received both antihistamine and corticosteroid premedication. Conclusion Tolerability (except IRR incidence), PFS rate, and overall survival rate were in line with previous results. At 1%, the rate of IRRs in patients who received prophylactic premedication with both antihistamine and corticosteroid is lower than previously reported. MABEL clearly confirms in a community practice setting the efficacy and safety of cetuximab plus irinotecan in the treatment of mCRC.
