Outpatient-basis chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer. | LitMetric

The objectives of the present study were to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an outpatient-basis chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin as the first-line treatment for patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Forty-three histologically confirmed patients with metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer were enrolled. The chemotherapy consisted of oxaliplatin 85 mg/m(2) as a 2-hr infusion on day 1, plus leucovorin 30 mg/m(2) over 10 min, followed by bolus 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/m(2) and an 8-hr infusion of 5-fluorouracil 600 mg/m(2) on days 1 and 2 (modified FOLFOX4), all of which were administered on an outpatient basis every 2 weeks. The median age was 58 yr (range 33-72 yr), and 25 (58.1%) patients had metastatic diseases. Eventually, 39 patients were assessable for efficacy and all assessable for toxicity. Four (9.3%) complete responses and 11 (25.6%) partial responses were confirmed, giving an overall response rate of 34.9% (95% CI; 20.0-49.7%). The median time to progression and median overall survival for all patients was 6.1 months and 17.4 months, respectively. Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 2 patients (4.7%) and febrile neutropenia was observed in 1 patient (2.3%). Modified FOLFOX4, an outpatient-basis regimen, was found to be well-tolerated and effective as the first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced colorectal cancer.
