Evaluation of Bevacizumab in Combination With First-Line Chemotherapy in Patients Aged 75 Years of Older With Metastatic Colorectal Adenocarcinoma (Prodige20)

Summary

To evaluate tolerance to and efficacy of bevacizumab in the treatment of MCRC in elderly patients, we propose a phase II randomised study comparing a chemotherapy + bevacizumab arm with a chemotherapy alone arm in the first-line treatment of MCRC in patients aged 75 years and older. This study is destined to continue as a phase III trial if both arms meet the selection criteria to show or not the benefits of treatment with bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy.
