A Study of RO5083945 in Combination With FOLFIRI Versus FOLFIRI Plus Cetuximab or FOLFIRI Alone as Second Line Treatment in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

12:45 EDT 24th May 2013 | BioPortfolio

Summary

This randomized, multicenter, open label study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of RO5083945 in combination with FOLFIRI as compared to FOLFIRI plus cetuximab or FOLFIRI alone as second line treatment in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive RO5083945 (1400 mg intravenously on Day 1 and Day 8 and every 2 weeks thereafter) plus FOLFIRI standard iv chemotherapy or FOLFIRI plus cetuximab (400 mg/m2 iv on Day 1 followed by 250 mg/m2 iv every week) or FOLFIRI alone. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions

Colorectal Neoplasms

Tumors or cancer of the COLON or the RECTUM or both. Risk factors for colorectal cancer include chronic ULCERATIVE COLITIS; FAMILIAL POLYPOSIS COLI; exposure to ASBESTOS; and irradiation of the CERVIX UTERI.

Genes, Mcc

Tumor suppressor genes located in the 5q21 region on the long arm of human chromosome 5. The mutation of these genes is associated with the formation of colorectal cancer (MCC stands for mutated in colorectal cancer).

Genes, Dcc

Tumor suppressor genes located in the 18q21-qter region of human chromosome 18. The absence of these genes is associated with the formation of colorectal cancer (DCC stands for deleted in colorectal cancer). The products of these genes show significant homology to neural cell adhesion molecules and other related cell surface glycoproteins.

Colorectal Neoplasms, Hereditary Nonpolyposis

A group of autosomal-dominant inherited diseases in which COLON CANCER arises in discrete adenomas. Unlike FAMILIAL POLYPOSIS COLI with hundreds of polyps, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms occur much later, in the fourth and fifth decades. HNPCC has been associated with germline mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes. It has been subdivided into Lynch syndrome I or site-specific colonic cancer, and LYNCH SYNDROME II which includes extracolonic cancer.

Tumor Suppressor Protein P53

Nuclear phosphoprotein encoded by the p53 gene (GENES, P53) whose normal function is to control CELL PROLIFERATION and APOPTOSIS. A mutant or absent p53 protein has been found in LEUKEMIA; OSTEOSARCOMA; LUNG CANCER; and COLORECTAL CANCER.
