www.OncologyEducation.ca Conclusions No benefit to adding cetuximab in patients with resected stage 3 K-ras WT expressing colon cancer ? Explanation –Decreased tolerance with cetuximab –Differences in dose intensity –Interaction with age: Worse outcomes in older patients receiving cetuximab Lessened ability to complete therapy
10
www.OncologyEducation.ca Was adverse impact of Cetuximab due to dosing issues? In post-hoc analysis, attempted to identify ‘ideal’ patients –First 6 cycles with > 80% dose intensity for all drugs –Consider only patients aged < 70 If no benefit in these pts (young, > 80% dose rec’d), then adverse impact not likely due to reduced dosing
11
www.OncologyEducation.ca Was adverse impact of Cetuximab due to dosing issues? Comparison based on dosing not protected by randomization, thus possibly confounded with other reasons for stopping treatment Alternative –Use Time to Recurrence endpoint –Most sensitive –Least confounded

14
www.OncologyEducation.ca Was adverse impact of Cetuximab due to dosing issues? GOLDBERG: While they had lower drug exposure, we don’t believe that is the key reason based on the idealized patient analysis We believe that the explanation is related to tumor biology
15
www.OncologyEducation.ca STUDY COMMENTARY Adding Cetuximab to adjuvant FOLFOX for resected Stage III colon cancer patients does not improve outcome Results do not appear to be explained by attendant increased toxicity / decreased dose intensity with combination ? Tumour Biology
