Note: the page has adjuvant regimens specific to RAS wild-type colon cancer. Also note that most of the regimens were evaluated on patients tested for KRAS mutations only, and that the definition of wild-type has evolved over time. See individual regimen biomarker eligibility criteria for more details.

Guidelines

Given the rapid change in evidence in many areas of hematology/oncology, readers are encouraged to consider any guideline published 5+ years ago to be for historical purposes, only.

ESMO

Japanese Society for Cancer of the Colon and Rectum

NCCN

Adjuvant therapy

mFOLFOX6

mFOLFOX6: modified FOLinic acid (Leucovorin), Fluorouracil, OXaliplatin

Regimen

Study Dates of enrollment Evidence Comparator Comparative Efficacy
Alberts et al. 2012 (N0147) 2004-2009 Phase 3 (C) mFOLFOX6 & Cetuximab Might have superior DFS
DFS36: 74.6% vs 71.5%
(HR 0.83, 95% CI 0.67-1.02)

Preceding treatment

Chemotherapy

  • Fluorouracil (5-FU) 400 mg/m2 IV bolus once on day 1, then 2400 mg/m2 IV continuous infusion over 46 to 48 hours, given second (total dose per cycle: 2800 mg/m2)
  • Leucovorin (Folinic acid) 400 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours once on day 1, given first, with oxaliplatin
  • Oxaliplatin (Eloxatin) 85 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours once on day 1, given first, with folinic acid

14-day cycle for 12 cycles

Regimen

Study Dates of enrollment Evidence Comparator Comparative Efficacy
Alberts et al. 2012 (N0147) 2004-2009 Phase 3 (E-esc) mFOLFOX6 Might have inferior DFS (primary endpoint)

(HR 1.21, 95% CI 0.98-1.49)

Some guidelines do not recommend using cetuximab as adjuvant therapy outside of a clinical trial.

Preceding treatment

Chemotherapy

Targeted therapy

  • Cetuximab (Erbitux) as follows:
    • Cycle 1: 400 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours once on day 1, then 250 mg/m2 IV over 60 minutes once on day 8
    • Cycles 2 to 12: 250 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours once per day on days 1 & 8

14-day cycle for 12 cycles
