Clinical Trial Summary

This open-label, single arm, multicenter study will evaluate the resection rate in patients with colorectal cancer and previously untreated unresectable liver-only metastases after adding Avastin (bevacizumab) to 5-FU based doublet chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant setting. Patients will receive standard 5-FU based chemotherapy plus Avastin 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks for a maximum of 12 cycles combined pre- and postoperatively unless they experience progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity.


Recruitment information / eligibility

Status Active, not recruiting
Enrollment 50
Est. completion date April 2016
Est. primary completion date April 2016
Accepts healthy volunteers No
Gender Both
Age group 18 Years to 75 Years
Eligibility Inclusion Criteria:

- Adult Chinese patients, 18-75 years of age

- Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma in colon or rectum with primary lesion surgically removed

- Previously untreated unresectable liver-only metastases

- Liver lesions determined to be unresectable by multidisciplinary team (MDT, consisting of experienced hepatic surgeons, medical oncologist and radiologist). Guidelines used to determine unresectability includes:

- R0 treatment infeasible with resection

- cannot spare two adjacent liver segments

- retention of liver volume <30%

- vascular flow and biliary drainage cannot be preserved

- No previous treatment against liver metastases, including chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy, TACE and target therapy

- Adequate hematological, renal and hepatic function

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1

- Life expectancy > 3 months

Exclusion Criteria:

- The relapse has occurred within 6 months of completion of the adjuvant treatment

- Expected impossible to achieve R0 resection and/or gain 30% residual liver volume even with responsive neoadjuvant therapy

- Patient cannot tolerate the surgery

- Other malignancies in the past 5 years, except for curatively treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin and/or in situ carcinoma of the cervix

- Any extrahepatic metastases and/or recurrence of the primary tumor

- Any residual toxicity from previous chemotherapy (except alopecia) of NCI CTC v.4.0 grade 2

- Hypertension crisis or encephalopathy

- Pregnant or lactating women

- Clinically significant cardiovascular disease

- Evidence of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy

- Current or recent (within 10 days of study drug initiation) use of full dose of aspirin, clopidrogel or warfarin

- History or evidence of CNS disease (e-g- primary brain tumor, seizures not controlled with standard medical therapy, any brain metastases, or history of stroke)
