Review, Journal: How we treat metastatic colorectal cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 21, 2021 In later lines, when improving quality of life become predominant, regorafenib and trifluridine/tipiracil demonstrated survival benefit, while re-challenge therapies represent an option only in selected patients. In patients with BRAFV600E-mutant tumour or with MSI, new therapies showed survival gain and probably will be a new piece in the treatment algorithm.

(Pubmed Central) - Jul 10, 2021 The ALTAIR trial is a double-blind, phase III study designed to establish the superiority of trifluridine/tipiracil as compared with placebo in patients with resected colorectal cancer who show circulating tumor-positive status in the GALAXY study...Therefore, CIRCULATE-Japan encompasses both "de-escalation" and "escalation" trials for circulating tumor DNA-negative and positive patients, respectively, and helps to answer whether measuring circulating tumor DNA postoperatively has prognostic and/or predictive value. Our circulating tumor DNA -guided adaptive platform trials will accelerate clinical development toward further precision oncology in the field of adjuvant therapy.

Review, Journal: Metastatic colorectal cancer: Advances in the folate-fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy backbone. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 30, 2021 Subsequent efforts to optimise 5-FU-based treatments have focused on 5-FU analogues, initially capecitabine and the combination drug tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil (S-1) and then TAS-102, which has recently been evaluated in phase 3 clinical trials for refractory colorectal cancer...Pharmacokinetic variability caused by the requirement for metabolic conversion of leucovorin has been central to recent research, and the development of agents such as arfolitixorin which bypass the need for metabolic conversion remains promising for future therapeutic candidates. In this review, we summarise the evidence leading to the current treatment regimens employing 5-FU and leucovorin, focusing on recent approaches taken to optimise and refine treatments to improve clinical outcomes in patients with mCRC.

Journal, HEOR: Dose-escalation strategy in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer: A change in terms of cost-effectiveness. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 22, 2021 Both regorafenib and trifluridine/tipiracil can be considered economically sustainable treatments for refractory mCRC, apparently with a lower cost of trifluridine/tipiracil. The adoption of a dose-escalation strategy (ReDOS trial) could reverse the situation making regorafenib more cost-effective than trifluridine/tipiracil.

Clinical, Journal: Monitoring FTD in the PBMCs of elderly patients with mCRC administered FTD plus bevacizumab as 1st-line treatment. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 11, 2021 Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the percentage of FTD-positive PBMCs on day 8 (the end of the first week of treatment), had moderate ability to accurately diagnose the occurrence of severe neutropenia and leukopenia within 1 month (area under the curve = 0.778 (95% confidence interval, 0.554-0.993)). This result suggests that excess FTD incorporation into PBMCs at the initial phase of FTD/TPI plus bevacizumab treatment is a risk factor for early onset of severe hematological adverse events.

The clinical effects of small-molecule anti-vascular drugs in combination with anti-EGFR in the treatment of CRC warrant further explored.
