Capecitabine and bevacizumab as first-line treatment in elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer

BACKGROUND: The efficacy and safety of capecitabine and bevacizumab in elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) considered unsuitable for receiving first-line chemotherapy with an irinotecan or oxaliplatin-based combination were assessed in a phase II, open, multicentre, uncontrolle...

METHODS: Treatment consisted of capecitabine 1250 mgm 2 (or 950 mgm 2 for patients with a creatinine clearance of 30–50ml min 1) twice daily on days 1–14 and bevacizumab (7.5 mg kg 1) on day 1 every 3 weeks. RESULTS: A total of 59 patients aged X70 years with mCRC were enrolled. In an intention-to-treat analysis, the overall response rate was 34%, with 71% of patients achieving disease control. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 10.8 months and 18 months, respectively. In all, 32 patients (54%) had grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs), the most common being hand–foot syndrome (19%), diarrhoea (9%) and deep venous thrombosis (7%). Four patients died because of treatment-related AEs. A relationship was detected between creatinine clearance p50 ml min 1 and the development of non-bevacizumab-related grade 3/4 AEs. The incidence of bevacizumab-associated AEs (hypertension, thromboembolic events and proteinuria) was consistent with that of previous reports in elderly patients. CONCLUSION: Bevacizumab combined with capecitabine represents a valid therapeutic alternative in elderly patients considered to be unsuitable for receiving polychemotherapy.This study was supported by Hoffmann-La Roche, Nutley, NJ, USA.Nature Publishing GroupDepartamento de MedicinaFacultad de Medicina20102010-05-01research articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10486/662397https://dx.doi.org/10.1038/sj.bjc.6605663reponame:Biblos-e Archivo.
