Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 5- Year Overall Survival (OS) Rate

    5 years

  • Recurrence-free Survival (RFS) Rate at 5 Years

    5 years

  • KRAS Mutation Rate

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Note: Please see Section 8.1 for the necessary "Prestudy Assessments".
  • Has a histologically confirmed diagnosis of newly diagnosed adenocarcinoma of the rectum (tumor within 15 cm of the anal verge). Location of tumor (lower 1/3rd vs. middle or upper 1/3rd) and pre-treatment nodal status (N0 vs. N1 or N2) will be recorded in the eCRF. Patients with only non-measurable disease are eligible as long as they meet the other disease requirements in this criterion as well as all other eligibility criteria.
  • Has tumor that is locally advanced (T3/T4 or lymph node positive) by preoperative assessment with CT or MRI imaging or transrectal ultrasonography.
  • Has no evidence of distant metastases by radiographic staging
  • Has an ECOG Performance Status (PS) 0-1
  • Is greater than 18 years of age
  • Has adequate marrow and organ system function as assessed by the following lab values:
  • White blood cell (WBC) count See protocol for specific details Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) See protocol for specific details Hemoglobin See protocol for specific details Total bilirubin See protocol for specific details AST and ALT See protocol for specific details Serum creatinine See protocol for specific details Platelet count See protocol for specific details
  • Sexually active women of childbearing potential must use an effective method of birth control during the course of the study, in a manner such that risk of failure is minimized.
  • Prior to study enrollment, women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must be advised of the importance of avoiding pregnancy during trial participation and the potential risk factors for an unintentional pregnancy. In addition, men enrolled on this study should understand the risks to any sexual partner of childbearing potential and should practice an effective method of birth control.
  • All WOCBP MUST have a negative pregnancy test within 3 weeks prior to registration (confirmed within 7 days prior to first receiving investigational product). If the pregnancy test is positive, the patient must not receive investigational product and must not be enrolled in the study.
  • In addition, all WOCBP should be instructed to contact the Investigator immediately if they suspect they might be pregnant (eg, missed or late menstrual period) at any time during study participation.
  • The Investigator must immediately notify BMS in the event of a confirmed pregnancy in a patient participating in the study.
  • Has signed a Patient Informed Consent Form
  • Has signed a Patient Authorization Form

You may not qualify if:

  • A patient will be excluded from this study if s/he meets any of the following criteria:
  • Has another disease similar to one being studied (ie, colon cancer)
  • Has evidence of distant metastases by radiographic staging
  • Has had prior treatment for the current disease
  • Has had prior stem cell or bone marrow transplant or any organ transplant with the exception of corneal transplant or cadaver bone graft
  • Has a history of hypersensitivity to any of study treatments
  • Has had a prior severe infusion reaction to a monoclonal antibody
  • Has received prior therapy, at any time, which specifically and directly targets the EGFR pathway
  • Has a significant history of uncontrolled cardiac disease; ie, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, recent myocardial infarction (within prior 6 months), uncontrolled congestive heart failure, or cardiomyopathy with decreased ejection fraction
  • Has evidence of CNS involvement (CNS imaging is not required for study enrollment unless clinically suspected CNS disease is present.)
  • Has a serious uncontrolled intercurrent medical or psychiatric illness, including serious infection or Gilbert's Syndrome
  • Is a pregnant or nursing woman
  • Is unable to comply with requirements of study
