Resumo4110 Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in a perioperative setting has proven valuable in locally advanced resectable colon cancer (CC) in terms of toxicity, postoperative morbidity and downstaging, but its effect on oncological outcomes remains uncertain. Methods: Prodige 22 was a randomized multicenter phase II trial in patients with resectable high-risk T3, T4 and/or N2 CC on baseline CT-scan. Patients were randomized to receive either 6 months of adjuvant FOLFOX after colectomy (control) or perioperative FOLFOX for 4 cycles before surgery and 8 cycles after (FOLFOX peri-op). In RAS wild-type (wt) patients a third arm testing perioperative FOLFOX-cetuximab was added. Primary endpoint was the Tumor Regression Grade. Secondary endpoints were 3-years overall (OS), disease-free survival (DFS) and time to recurrence (TTR). Results: 120 patients were enrolled. At interim analysis, the FOLFOX-cetuximab arm was stopped for futility. The remaining 104 patients (control, n = 52; FOLFOX peri-op n = 52) represented our intention-to-treat population. In the FOLFOX peri-op group, 96% received the schedule 4 cycles prior to surgery and all but one underwent adjuvant FOLFOX for a total of 12 cycles. In the control arm, 38 patients received adjuvant FOLFOX (1 postoperative death and 13 low-risk stage II patients). Median follow-up was 54.3 months [48.5-57.2]. Nineteen deaths and 26 disease recurrences were observed leading to a 3 years-OS of 90.3% in both arms (p = 0.7) and to a 3-years DFS of 76.8% and 69.2% in the peri-op and control arm respectively (p = 0.6). A trend to a better TTR in the peri-op arm was observed with a 3-years TTR of 82% as compared to 72% in the control arm (p = 0.3). No benefit from adding Cetuximab was observed in the 16 RAS-wt treated patients. Conclusions: In this pilot randomized study, perioperative FOLFOX chemotherapy has no detrimental effect on long term oncological outcomes and may be an option for some patients with locally advanced CC. A pooled analysis of randomized trials testing peri-operative strategies in this setting is warranted. Clinical trial information: NCT01675999 .
