Details and patient eligibility

About

To evaluate the tolerance of patients with colorectal cancer to hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with Raltitrexed, to determine the dose limiting toxicity and maximum tolerated dose.

Full description

All patients with CRC-PM who underwent CRS at the Department of Colorectal Surgery, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center between September 2020 and November 2024 were enrolled as part of the classical 3+3 dose-escalation phase I trial, and within a later expansion cohort. Initially, 3 patients were sequentially evaluated for DLTs at each dose level. The MTD was defined as the highest dose in cohorts where ≦1 patients experienced DLT. Thereafter, additional patients were enrolled in an expansion cohort to determined RP2D. The recommended phase II dose (RP2D) was the highest dose level which no patients had a DLT. The RTX-HIPEC protocol used a modified Fibonacci dose escalation method with 7 dose levels (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 mg/m2).
