A Triplet Combination With Irinotecan Plus Oxaliplatin,Continuous Infusion 5-Fluorouracil And Leucovorin Plus Cetuximab As First Line Treatment In Metastatic Colorectal Cancer. A Pilot Phase II Trial
The combination of FOLFOXIRI plus cetuximab is reasonable safe regimen especially for
patients with good performance status. The estimated benefit from the combination is greater
than the possible risk, especially for the patients who will become resectable after
treatment. It will be extremely interesting to evaluate the resectability rate of this
specific group of patient with good performance status and unresectable disease when they
are treated with all active chemotherapeutic agents and cetuximab
