NCT05534087

Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, open-label, randomized phase 3 clinical trial. It aims to investigate if the early introduction of intensified chemotherapy (3 months of modified FOLFIRINOX) improves the 3-year disease-free survival rate compared to standard treatment (FOLFOX/CAPOX for an additional three months to complete six months of standard adjuvant chemotherapy) in patients with stage 2-3 colon cancer in whom ctDNA MRD in the part 1 study remained positive during adjuvant FOLFOX/CAPOX chemotherapy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 3-year disease-free survival rate

    The rate refers to cases that see first tumor metastasis or recurrence or death of any cause from randomization

    Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 36 months)

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) clearance rate

    The data of ctDNA clearance rate will be collected at 10 time points

  • 5-year overall survival rate (5y-OS rate)

    Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 60 months)

  • Treatment-Related Adverse Events

    Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 36 months)

  • EORTC QLQ-C30 scale

    Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 36 months)

  • Age range of 19 to 75 years
  • Adenocarcinoma of colon confirmed by histology
  • Patients with stage II-III colon cancer as defined by the American Joint Committee on Cancer's eighth edition (Stage II cancer is limited to patients who are at a high risk, with more than one risk factor for recurrence.)
  • Patients who have completed the sixth cycle of FOLFOX or the fourth cycle of CAPOX adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer following radical resection (R0 resection)
  • A ctDNA test performed 3 to 6 weeks after surgery reveals a positive MRD
  • ECOG performance scale of 0-1 (only 1 is allowed for 70-75 years old)
  • Adequate bone marrow function \[ANC ≥1,300/LL, platelets ≥75,000/LL, hemoglobin ≥8.0g/dL (may be eligible in study if intermittent transfusion is required)\]
  • Appropriate liver function (total bilirubin ≤1.5xULN, AST and ALT ≤3xULN)
  • Appropriate renal function (serum creatine ≤1.5xULN, renal clearance rate ≥50 ml/min)
  • Patients who are deemed to understand the study protocol and are willing to participate in the trial until it is completed

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant or lactating women
  • Pregnant women who had a positive pregnancy test at the time of the baseline examination (postmenopausal women must be amenable for at least 12 months to be considered non-fertility)
  • Sexually active men and women of reproductive age who are unwilling to use contraception throughout the study treatment and for a period of 6 months (female) or 3 months (male) following the discontinuation of study treatment
  • Clinically significant heart condition \[unstable angina requiring medication, symptomatic coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, or significant heart arrhythmia above NYHA II, or acute coronary syndrome, including myocardial infarction within the last 6 months\]
  • Active viral infections such as HIV (However, HBV carriers may enroll if their HBV DNA titer is less than 20,000 IU/ml, and antiviral drugs for hepatitis B may be administered prophylactically at the investigator's discretion)
  • Significant uncontrolled infections or other uncontrolled comorbidities
  • Symptomatic inflammatory bowel disease
  • Allogeneic transplantation history necessitating immunosuppressive therapy
  • A history of other malignancies identified within the last three years, except for completed removed basal cell carcinoma of the skin, completely removed cervical epithelial carcinoma, and thyroid cancer that has been treated, including surgery
  • Recurrent or residual disease identified clinically or radiographically
  • Previous history of irinotecan treatment
  • Polyposis including familial adenomatous polyps
  • Two or more colon or rectal cancers with a pathologic stage greater than II that were detected concurrently or within the last three years
  • When the investigator determines that the subjects' safety may be jeopardized during the study because of other serious or unstable pre-existing medical or mental conditions
  • Prior clinical trial participation and usage of investigational drugs or devices following radical resection of colon cancer
  • +3 more criteria
