Modified FOLFOXIRI Plus Target Therapy as a First Line Treatment for Advanced Colorectal Cancer a Prospective Phase Two Study

Summary

This prospective Phase II study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a modified FOLFOXIRI regimen in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (MCRC). FOLFOXIRI, though effective, is known for its high toxicity, necessitating close monitoring and dose adjustments. . The primary endpoint is to assess the impact on the objective response rate and evaluate both acute and delayed toxicity. The secondary endpoints include studying the treatment's effectiveness as conversion therapy, along with disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). The tertiary endpoint focuses on evaluating predictive and prognostic factors of significance. This study seeks to balance the efficacy of FOLFOXIRI with a modified dose to minimize toxicity while maintaining therapeutic benefits, providing a potentially safer and effective option for patients with MCRC.
