A Randomized, Multicenter, Phase II Study Of Bolus/Infusion 5-FU/LV (de Gramont Regimen) Versus Oxaliplatin And Bolus/Infusion 5-FU/LV (de Gramont Regimen) As Third-Line Treatment Of Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma


OBJECTIVES: I. Compare the overall response rate and overall survival of patients with
recurrent metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma treated with third-line therapy comprising
fluorouracil and leucovorin calcium with or without oxaliplatin. II. Compare the onset and
duration of complete and partial responses and duration of disease stabilization in patients
treated with these regimens. III. Compare the proportion of patients with stable disease and
proportion of patients with tumor-related symptomatic improvement treated with these
regimens. IV. Compare the time to disease progression and time to tumor-related symptomatic
worsening in patients treated with these regimens.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to one of two
treatment arms. Arm I: Patients receive leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours and fluorouracil
IV over 2-4 minutes followed by fluorouracil IV continuously over 22 hours on days 1 and 2.
Arm II: Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours, leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours,
and fluorouracil IV over 2-4 minutes followed by fluorouracil IV continuously over 22 hours
on day 1. On day 2, patients receive leucovorin calcium and fluorouracil as in arm I.
Treatment in both arms repeats every 2 weeks for at least 1 year in the absence of disease
progression. Patients are followed at day 30 and then for approximately 6 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 200 patients (100 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this
study.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS: Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the
colon or rectum Metastatic/recurrent disease not amenable to potentially curative therapy

scan or MRI) after 2 prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic/recurrent disease At least
1 unidimensionally measurable lesion At least 20 mm by conventional CT scan or MRI OR At
least 10 mm by spiral CT scan Must have received prior fluorouracil (or capecitabine) and
leucovorin calcium with or without irinotecan as first-line therapy and irinotecan with or
without fluorouracil (or capecitabine) and leucovorin calcium as second-line therapy for
metastatic disease

capecitabine) and leucovorin calcium) for metastatic disease and recovered Endocrine
therapy: Not specified Radiotherapy: At least 3 weeks since prior radiotherapy No prior
radiotherapy to target lesion unless documented progression within the radiation portal
Surgery: See Disease Characteristics At least 4 weeks since prior surgery for primary
tumor or metastases and recovered Other: No prior investigational anticancer drug No other
concurrent investigational agents
