NCT04509635

Brief Summary

For patients with unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases, preclinical studies have shown that after the resistance of cetuximab, the treatment sensitivity can be restored by stopping cetuximab for a period of time. This is called the cetuximab re-challenge. And the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) test is reported a biomarker for the efficacy of cetuximab rechallenge. However, there is still no randomized controlled trial for verification. This study aims at patients after the first-line treatment of cetuximab has progressed. After the second-line non-cetuximab treatment has progressed, the effects of re-application of combined with cetuximab and chemotherapy alone are compared to verify the re-challenge effect.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • disease control rate

    According to the RECIST v.1.1, the disease control rate (DCR) is the proportion of patients with complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD), evaluated by radiology (CT, MRI, etc.).

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • objective response rate

    2 years

  • progression-free survival

    2 years

  • overall survival

    2 years

Study Arms (2)

Arm A

EXPERIMENTAL

Using treatment of cetuximab plus chemotherapy. Cetuximab: 500 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours, day 1, every 2 weeks. Chemotherapy: detailed regimen is determined by a multi-disciplinary team.

Drug: CetuximabDrug: Chemotherapy

Arm B

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Using treatment of chemotherapy alone. Chemotherapy: detailed regimen is determined by a multi-disciplinary team

Drug: Chemotherapy

Interventions

Cetuximab is used for only patients with ctDNA test RAS wild type.

Arm A

The detailed regimen is determined by a multi-disciplinary team according to the previous use of chemotherapy.
