Activity of aflibercept (Afli) in combination with FOLFIRI (F) for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in a real-life setting in Spain: Final results of the retrospective study Named Patient Program.

2016 
689 Background: InVELOUR trial the addition of aflibercept to FOLFIRI regimen, demonstrated a statistically significant overall survival improvement in mCRC patients (pts) who progressed on or after a prior oxaliplatin based regimen with or without biologic agents. Our goal is to assess in the real-life setting the activity and safety profile of Afli+F in mCRC. Methods: Retrospective data collection (baseline characteristics, progression free survival [PFS], objective response rate [ORR], salvage surgeries, and safety profile) of pts who received Afli+F as a 2nd line treatment on a compassionate use program in Spain. GERCOR prognostic model has been applied to evaluate PFS. These are the final results of the analysis (Cut-off date June 2015). Results: The retrospective study population comprised 71 pts (34 hospitals); 60.6% men and 39.4% women, median age 64 years (19.7% > 70) and 98.6% had ECOG scores = 0-1. 63.4% (n = 45) had ≥ 2 metastatic sites (liver [81.7%], lung [38.0%]) and 67.7% (46/68) patients ...
