Oral capecitabine as an alternative to i.v. 5-fluorouracil-based adjuvant therapy for colon cancer: safety results of a randomized, phase III trial

Background: Oral capecitabine achieves a superior response rate with an improved safety profile compared with bolus 5-fluorouracil–leucovorin (5-FU/LV) as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. We report here the results of a large phase III trial investigating adjuvant...

description Background: Oral capecitabine achieves a superior response rate with an improved safety profile compared with bolus 5-fluorouracil–leucovorin (5-FU/LV) as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. We report here the results of a large phase III trial investigating adjuvant oral capecitabine compared with 5-FU/LV (Mayo Clinic regimen) in Dukes’ C colon cancer. Patients and methods: Patients aged 18–75 years with resected Dukes’ C colon carcinoma were randomized to receive 24 weeks of treatment with either oral capecitabine 1250 mg/m2 twice daily, days 1–14 every 21 days (n = 993), or i.v. bolus 5-FU 425 mg/m2 with i.v. leucovorin 20 mg/m2 on days 1–5, repeated every 28 days (n = 974). Results: Patients receiving capecitabine experienced significantly (P

Results: Patients receiving capecitabine experienced significantly (P &lt;0.001) less diarrhea, stomatitis, nausea/vomiting, alopecia and neutropenia, but more hand–foot syndrome than those receiving 5-FU/LV. Fewer patients receiving capecitabine experienced grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, febrile neutropenia/sepsis and stomatitis (P &lt;0.001), although more experienced grade 3 hand–foot syndrome than those treated with 5-FU/LV (P &lt;0.001). Capecitabine demonstrates a similar, favorable safety profile in patients aged &lt;65 years or ≥65 years old. Conclusions: Based on its improved safety profile, capecitabine has the potential to replace 5-FU/LV as standard adjuvant treatment for patients with colon cancer.
