The aim of this work was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of second-line treatment with weekly high-dose 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) as a 24-hour infusion (24-h inf.) and folinic acid (FA) (AIO-regimen) plus Oxaliplatin (L-OHP) after pre-treatment with the AIO regimen, focusing in particular on the efficacy of palliative first- and second-line treatment in colorectal carcinoma (CRC).
Patients with non-resectable distant CRC metastases were enrolled in a prospective phase II study for palliative second-line treatment after previous palliative first-line treatment in accordance with the AIO regimen. On an outpatient basis, the patients received a treatment regimen comprising biweekly 85 mg/m2 L-OHP in the form of a 2-hour intravenous (i.v.) infusion and 500 mg/m2 FA as a 1 to 2-hour i.v. infusion, followed by 2,600 mg/m2 5-FU administered as a 24-h inf. i.v. once weekly. A single treatment cycle comprised 6 weekly infusions followed by 2 weeks of rest.
During second-line treatment, a total of 26 patients received 340 chemotherapy applications. As the main symptom of toxicity, diarrhoea (NCI-CTC toxicity grade 3+4) presented in 5 patients (19%; 95% CI: 4-34), followed by nausea (CTC grade 3) in one patient (4%; 95% CI: 0-11). Twenty-three patients were evaluable for treatment response. The remission data can be summarised as follows: Complete remission (CR): n=1 (4%; 95% CI: 0-13); partial remission (PR): n=3 (13%; 95% CI: 0-27); stable disease (SD): n=11 (48%; 95% CI: 27-68) and progressive disease (PD): n=8 (35%; 95% CI: 15-54). The median progression-free survival (PFS) rate (n=26) was 3.3 months (range 0-11.5), the median survival time counted from the start of second-line treatment (n=26) 11.6 months (range 2.1-33.0) and the median survival time counted from the start of first-line treatment (n=26) 19.9 months (range 7.7-49.8).
Palliative second-line treatment according to the AIO regimen plus L-OHP is feasible in an outpatient setting and well tolerated by the patients. Tumour control (CR + PR + SD) was achieved in 65% of the patients, the median survival time being 11.6 months. The AIO regimen followed by the 'AIO regimen plus L-OHP' therapy sequence led to a promising median survival time of 19.9 months (range 7.7-49.8).
本研究旨在评估在接受AIO方案预处理后,采用每周大剂量5-氟尿嘧啶(5-FU)持续24小时静脉输注(24-h inf.)联合亚叶酸(FA)(AIO方案)加奥沙利铂(L-OHP)进行二线治疗的疗效和安全性,尤其关注结直肠癌(CRC)姑息性一线和二线治疗的疗效。
不可切除的远处CRC转移患者参加了一项前瞻性II期研究,该研究针对先前按照AIO方案进行姑息性一线治疗后的姑息性二线治疗。患者在门诊接受治疗方案,包括每两周一次85mg/m²的L-OHP,静脉输注2小时,以及500mg/m²的FA,静脉输注1至2小时,随后每周一次静脉输注24小时给予2600mg/m²的5-FU。一个治疗周期包括6次每周输注,随后休息2周。
在二线治疗期间,共有26例患者接受了340次化疗。作为主要毒性症状出现腹泻(NCI-CTC毒性3 + 4级)的患者有5例(19%;95%CI:4 - 34),其次是1例出现恶心(CTC 3级)的患者(4%;95%CI:0 - 11)。23例患者可评估治疗反应。缓解数据总结如下:完全缓解(CR):n = 1(4%;95%CI:0 - 13);部分缓解(PR):n = 3(13%;95%CI:0 - 27);疾病稳定(SD):n = 11(48%;95%CI:27 - 68);疾病进展(PD):n = 8(35%;95%CI:15 - 54)。无进展生存期(PFS)的中位数(n = 26)为3.3个月(范围0 - 11.5),从二线治疗开始计算的中位生存时间(n = 26)为11.6个月(范围2.1 - 33.0),从一线治疗开始计算的中位生存时间(n = 26)为19.9个月(范围7.7 - 49.8)。
按照AIO方案加L-OHP进行姑息性二线治疗在门诊环境中可行,患者耐受性良好。65%的患者实现了肿瘤控制(CR + PR + SD),中位生存时间为11.6个月。采用“AIO方案加L-OHP”治疗序列的AIO方案导致了有前景的中位生存时间19.9个月(范围7.7 - 49.8)。
