HLX04 mCRC03

Details and patient eligibility

About

This trial is conducted in patients with the recurrent lesion(s) post-surgery or the untreated mCRC. After stratification with respect to ECOG PS score, chemo regimen, primary tumor location and KRAS and BRAF genotype (complete wild-type/primal type), eligible patients are randomized into two arms at 1:1 ratio to receive HLX04 (Arm A) or Bevacizumab (Arm B) in combination with one of the protocol-defined chemotherapies, modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6) or XELOX for mCRC until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity or achieving an operable contingency, whichever occurs first.

Enrollment: 677 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 75 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

6. No prior first-line systemic anti-tumor therapy for mCRC (including systemic chemotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, biotherapy, and other study treatment) have been identified

7. At least 6 months have elapsed if considering the interval from the time of firstly documented metastasis to the post-operational adjuvant chemotherapy termination

8. Adequate organ function as indicated by the following laboratory values:

   5. Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X ULN
   6. AST (SGOT), ALT (SGPT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALK) ≤ 3 X ULN (AST/ALT ≤ 5 X ULN if liver metastatic; ALK ≤ 5 × ULN if liver and/or bone metastastic)
   7. International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT) or Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 X ULN; ( if patient is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intent using goal of anticoagulants)

9. The subjects are accredited with good compliance, signed the informed consent, and capable to cooperate, completing the relevant examination and follow-ups.

Exclusion criteria

1. Targeted medicine(including Bevacizumab, cetuximab, panedol, arbicip, rigofeni, etc) was used before as adjuvant therapy.
2. Cerebral and/or leptomeningeal metastasis.
3. Bleeding predisposition, high bleeding risk or coagulant disorder, thrombotic event(s) occurrence ≤6 months and/or hemoptysis ≤3 months (≥ 1/2 teaspoons fresh blood each) prior to the screening; use of full dose oral or parenteral anticoagulant or thrombolytic medication (allowing preventative anticoagulation); use of aspirin (> 325 mg/day) or other platelet-inhibition non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs within 10 days since the screening; CT/MRI imaging evidence, testimony of the main arteries/veins (such as pulmonary artery or superior vena cava) being infringed, encroached.
4. Subjects with uncontrolled hypertension and with a medical history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy; serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including cerebrovascular accident (CVA) ≤6 months before the screening, transient ischemic attack (TIA), myocardial infarction and significant vascular disease (including but not limited to aortic aneurysms with need for surgical repair or recent evidence of arterial thrombosis), unstable angina, heart failure and serious arrhythmias that are uncontrolled by drugs (New York Heart Association Class ≥2).
5. Subjects with non-healing wounds, active peptic ulcer or fracture and active infection; tracheal esophageal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation or gastrointestinal fistula and abdominal abscess in the 6 months prior to the screening;Uncontrolled infection,including HIV,HBV,HCV and syphilis .
6. Subjects allergic to bevacizumab, oxaliplatin, 5-FU/capecitabine or folinic acid injection and the relevant ingredients and excipients.
7. Pregnant women and lactating women; women of potential childbearing age and male subjects do not use effective contraception during the study period, and during the 6 months after the last study drug administration effective contraception cannot be assured.
8. Presence of other active malignancies or a history of other malignancies within the past 5 years, except for carcinoma in situ of the cervix, basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has been previously treated with curative intent.
9. Subject is currently enrolled in, or ≤4 weeks since subject participating another investigational device or drug study(s), or subject is receiving other investigational agent(s).
10. Any other medical condition that renders disqualification for the inclusion in the study according to the investigator discretionary judgment.
