A Trial of Dalotuzumab in Combination With Irinotecan Versus Cetuximab and Irinotecan for Participants With Metastatic Rectal Cancers (mRC) (MK-0646-025)

Summary

The purpose of this adaptive trial is to compare the progression-free survival of participants with metastatic rectal carcinoma when treated with intravenous (IV) dalotuzumab (MK-0646) + irinotecan therapy relative to participants treated with IV cetuximab + irinotecan. The primary hypothesis is that administration of dalotuzumab in combination with irinotecan to participants with wild-type KRAS metastatic rectal carcinoma with high insulin growth factor (IGF)-1/low IGF-2 expression levels improves progression-free survival compared to patients treated with cetuximab in combination with irinotecan.
