A phase II, open-label study evaluating the safety and efficacy of ramucirumab combined with mFOLFOX-6 as first-line therapy in patients (pts) with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC): CP12-0709/NCT00862784.
2012
533^ Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) are overexpressed in CRC and mediate angiogenesis. Ramucirumab (RAM; IMC-1121B) is a fully human IgG1 MAb that inhibits binding of VEGF ligands to VEGFR-2 and inhibits VEGFR-2 activation and signaling. In preclinical CRC models VEGFR-2 inhibition confers antitumor activity. RAM was administered with mFOLFOX-6 as 1st-line therapy (rx) in mCRC. Methods: Eligible pts had mCRC with no prior chemo Rx (prior adjuvant rx was allowed), at least 1 measurable target lesion by RECIST v1.0, ECOG PS 0-1, and adequate organ function. Pts received RAM (8 mg/kg IV on D1), oxaliplatin (85 mg/m² IV on D1), folinic acid (400 mg/m² IV on D1), fluorouracil (5-FU, 400 mg/m² bolus followed by 2400 mg/m² continuous infusion over 46 hours on D1). Rx cycles were q2w and tumor assessments were q8w. Endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), safety, and pharmacokinetics/immunogen...
