This 2 arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of intermittent oral Xeloda plus Eloxatin (oxaliplatin) with that of fluorouracil/leucovorin in patients who have had surgery for colon cancer and no previous chemotherapy. Patients will be randomized to receive either 1) XELOX (Xeloda 1000mg/m2 po bid on days 1-15 + oxaliplatin) in 3 week cycles or 2)5-fluorouracil + leucovorin in 4 or 8 week cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
This 4 arm study assessed the efficacy and safety of oral capecitabine (Xeloda) or intravenous (iv) fluorouracil/leucovorin, in combination with iv oxaliplatin (Eloxatin) with or without iv bevacizumab (Avastin), as a first-line treatment in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients were randomized to receive 1) XELOX (Xeloda 1000 mg/m^2 orally [po] twice a day [bid] on Days 1-15 + oxaliplatin in 3 week cycles), 2) FOLFOX-4 (oxaliplatin + leucovorin + fluorouracil [5-FU] in 2 week cycles), 3) XELOX + bevacizumab (7.5 mg iv on Day 1 in 3 week cycles), or 4) FOLFOX-4 + bevacizumab (5 mg iv on Day 1 in 2 week cycles).
