Metastases resection after FOLFIRI-aflibercept (FA) in oxaliplatin-refractory colorectal cancer patients (ORF-CRC).

Abstract

862 Background: Recent data suggest resection of colorectal metastases after second-line chemotherapy offers similar overall survival (OS) benefit compared to what described in first-line. The improvement in response rate with FA in second-line may increase the number of patients eventually undergo metastases resection. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 32 patients from 26 Spanish hospitals who underwent surgical resection after FA in ORF-CRC in real-life setting. Our aim was to analyze the impact of metastases resection in different organs (liver, lung, etc.) in terms of OS and progression-free survival (PFS) and post-surgical mortality and morbidity. Results: Clinical characteristics: Median age: 65 years (43-83). Sex: 78.1% male, 21.9% female. ECOG 0/1 53.1/46.9%. Ras: wild-type/mutated 25/75%. Type of tumor: colon 75.0%, rectal 25.0%. Location: right 28.1%, transverse 9.4%, and left-side 62.5%. Previous treatment: oxaliplatin combinations (100%), bevacizumab 37.5%, cetuximab 21.97%. Ras wild-type patients received previous anti-EGFR therapy. FA in second-line 93.7% and beyond second-line 6.3%. Median FA cycles before surgery: 6.5 (range 3-44). Type of surgery: liver metastases 46.9%, lung metastases 25.0%, cytoreductive surgery for peritoneal carcinomatosis 15.6%, supraadrenalectomy 3.1%, simultaneous liver and peritoneal carcinomatosis 9.4%. Better tumor response with FA (RECIST1.1): partial response 56.3%, complete response 3.1%, stable disease 40.6%. Median follow-up: 20.9 months [m] (range 3.8-57.3 m). Median PFS from surgery: 8.0 m (confidence interval [CI] 95% 2.5-13.5 m). Median OS from surgery: 37.3 m (CI 95% 23.3-51.4 m). No significant difference between right and left-side tumors in OS or PFS were observed. 90-day postoperative mortality/morbidity: 18.8/0% Reoperation rate: 9.4%. Resection rates: R0 75.0%, R1 15.6%, R2 9.4%. Aflibercept after surgery: 22% patients. Conclusions: Metastases resection following FA in ORF-CRC offers encouraging OS with favorable surgical mortality and morbidity. Salvage surgery should be considered in highly selected patients in second-line setting with oligometastatic disease.

Relevance of Pharmacogenomics and Multidisciplinary Management in a Young-Elderly Patient With KRAS Mutant Colorectal Cancer Treated With First-Line Aflibercept-Containing Chemotherapy

“…The diagnosis of mucinous lung metastases may justify such a long OS 66 months of metastatic disease without evidence of disease at PFS 50 months and PFI 40 months from second stage lung metastasectomies, thus realizing the effectiveness of the integrated lung metastasectomies. In a retrospective Spanish real-life analysis of 32 patients who underwent surgical resection after aflibercept/FOLFIRI ( 37 ), PR was 56.3%, CR 3.1%, and resection rates R0 75.0%, R1 15.6%, and R2 9.4%. Secondary resection of different metastatic sites was performed: liver, 46.9%; lung, 25.0%; cytoreductive surgery for carcinomatosis, 15.6%; supra-adrenalectomy, 3.1%; liver and peritoneal carcinomatosis, 9.4%.…”
