[Two Cases of Advanced Colorectal Cancer Achieving Complete Response by FOLFOXIRI plus Bevacizumab-A Case Report].

2019 
We report 2 cases of advanced colorectal cancer achieving complete response by FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab. Case 1 was a 65-year-old male diagnosed with descending colon cancer with multiple liver metastases. Six courses of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab were administered after laparoscopic-assisted left hemicolectomy. Ten partial hepatectomies and 1 radiofrequency ablation were performed as the liver metastases resolved. A pathological complete response was confirmed. Adjuvant chemotherapy was not administered, and recurrence-free survival was 21 months after hepatectomy. Case 2 was a 77-yearold male diagnosed with rectal cancer invading the pelvic wall and sacral foramen with bilateral lateral lymph node metastasis. Additionally, there was a cancer embolism in the right internal iliac vein. Six courses of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab were administered, and the cancer tissue was absent on subsequent CT and MRI. The cancer was scarred by colonoscopy, and the biopsy showed no malignant cells. Six courses of FOLFIRI plus panitumumab were administered as second-line chemotherapy, and the patient survived without any recurrence after 12 months from initiation of chemotherapy.
