Study Description

Brief Summary:

The objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of CAPOXIRI+BEV therapy versus FOLFOXIRI+BEV therapy as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).

Condition or disease	Intervention/treatment	Phase
Metastatic Colorectal Cancer	Biological: Bevacizumab; Drug: 5-fluorouracil; Drug: Leucovorin calcium; Drug: Irinotecan hydrochloride; Drug: Oxaliplatin; Drug: Capecitabine	Phase 2

Detailed Description:

QUATTRO-II is an open-label, multicenter, randomised, phase II study to investigate the efficacy and safety of CAPOXIRI+BEV versus FOLFOXIRI+BEV in 1st line mCRC.

This study is composed two steps because of confirming of recommended dose (RD) for CAPOXIRI+BEV regimen.

1. Dose finding step (Step1): CAPOXIRI+BEV doses findings were planned by 3+3 cohort design, register up to maximum of 12 cases.
2. Randomised step (Step2): After confirmation of RD regarding CAPOXIRI+BEV, we will move to Step2 to compare the efficacy and safety between FOLFOXIRI+BEV and CAPOXIRI+BEV, register up to 65 cases.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
