A randomised phase II study evaluating Dual inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling using CetUXimab and Erlotinib or dose escalated Cetuximab in patients with chemotherapy refractory KRAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Interventions: Patients randomised to treatment Arm B will receive dual EGFR inhibition, consisting of Cetuximab 400mg/m2 (initial dose), then 250mg/m2 via intravenous infusion each week, plus Erlotinib 100mg via oral tablet(s) daily continuously.
Patients randomised to treatment Arm C will receive high-dose Cetuximab, 500mg/m2 via intravenous infusion each week.
Treatment will continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity (as defined in the protocol), patient and/or clinician preference, or patient death.
Patients participating in the optional skin management study randomised to Group 1 will commence pre-emptive skin side effect treatments the day before starting study Cetuximab, and will continue until study treatment is ceased. Patients will be required to adhere to: daily use of moisturiser and topical 1% hydrocortisone (steroid) applied to face, hands, feet, neck, back each day; use of sunscreen before sun exposure; and taking doxycycline (antibiotic) 100mg via oral tablet(s) twice each day.
Primary outcome(s): Tumour response rate, as assessed by RECIST v.1.1 using chest, abdomen and pelvis CT.[Baseline, 6-weekly while on treatment then 3-monthly for 12 months of follow-up.
RECIST assessments cease for completion of follow-up, study withdrawal, progressive disease, new anti-cancer therapy or patient death.]
