To dissect gene expression subgroups of FOLFOX resistance colorectal cancer(CRC) and predict FOLFOX response, gene expression data of 83 stage IV CRC tumor samples (FOLFOX responder  = 42, non-responder  = 41) are used to develop a novel iterative supervised learning method IML. IML identified two mutually exclusive subgroups of CRC patients that rely on different DNA damage repair proteins and resist FOLFOX. IML was validated in two validation sets (HR = 2.6, Value = 0.02; HR = 2.36, value = 0.02). A subgroup of mesenchymal subtype patients benefit from FOLFOX. Different subgroups of FOLFOX nonresponders may need to be treated differently.

Second-line systemic treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer: A systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis based on RCT.

PLoS One

Department of Colorectal Surgery, The Affiliated Xuzhou Clinical College of Xuzhou Medical University, Xuzhou Central Hospital, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China.

Background: The optimal second-line systemic treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is inconclusive.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library for RCTs comparing second-line systemic treatments for mCRC from the inception of each database up to February 3, 2024. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique was used in this network meta-analysis (NMA) to generate the direct and indirect comparison results among multiple treatments in progression-free survival (PFS), overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), complete response (CR), partial response (PR), grade 3 and above adverse events (Grade ≥ 3AE), and any adverse events (Any AE).

Background & Aim: Hepcidin, a key hormone in iron homeostasis, is synthesized by colorectal cancer (CRC) cells, particularly in the late stages of tumorigenesis. This study aimed to ascertain whether the serum levels of hepcidin could serve as a prognostic biomarker in microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic CRC (mCRC). Specifically, we assessed the predictive value of baseline serum hepcidin levels for the overall survival (OS) of patients with MSS mCRC receiving first-line treatment with FOLFOX-panitumumab (RAS/BRAF wild-type) or FOLFOX-bevacizumab (RAS or BRAF mutations).

Background: RECIST may not be optimal for assessing treatment response with current systemic regimens. We evaluated RECIST, morphologic, and pathologically documented response (pathological response) in patients with initially unresectable colorectal cancer liver-only metastases (CRLM).

Patients And Methods: Four hundred and eighty-nine patients from the phase III CAIRO5 trial were included who were treated with FOLFOX/FOLFIRI/FOLFOXIRI and bevacizumab or panitumumab.

Previous studies showed encouraging efficacy of alternating FOLFOX/FOLFIRI for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). This phase 2 trial (NCT04324476) aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of alternating modified CAPOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin)/modified CAPIRI (capecitabine and irinotecan) plus bevacizumab (anti-VEGF-A antibody) in untreated unresectable mCRC. Induction treatment included capecitabine 1000 mg/m bid D2-8 and D16-22, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m D1, irinotecan 150 mg/m D15, and bevacizumab 5 mg/kg D1 and 15 for 28-day cycles (up to six cycles).

Background: Hepatic artery infusion (HAI) chemotherapy, particularly with floxuridine (FUDR), has previously shown effectiveness in improving recurrence-free survival (RFS) in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Nonetheless, its adjuvant use alongside modern systemic chemotherapy remains unevaluated.

Patients And Methods: The HARVEST trial is an open-label, randomized, controlled study conducted from May 2018 to August 2021.
