FOLFOX8 Versus mFOLFOX6 With Bevacizumab or Cetuximab for First-Line Unresectable Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (Phase II)

Levofolinic Acid For Injection is the first approved class 2.1 sodium levoleucovorin formulation in China. It contains only the active l-isomer of levoleucovorin, with an equivalent dose half that of leucovorin. As a sodium salt, it has higher solubility, is compatible with 5-FU, and allows concurrent infusion. The FOLFOX8 regimen is based on mFOLFOX6 and takes advantage of the sodium salt formulation of Levofolinic Acid For Injection by changing the traditional sequential infusion of 5-FU and calcium levoleucovorin to concurrent infusion of Levofolinic Acid For Injection and 5-FU, thereby prolonging the duration of synergistic action and enhancing overall efficacy. It is expected to further delay disease progression in patients with colorectal cancer. This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled phase II trial. A total of 229 patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned to the experimental group (FOLFOX8) or the control group (mFOLFOX6). Targeted therapy (bevacizumab or cetuximab) will be selected based on the patient's RAS mutation status and tumor location. Treatment will be administered every two weeks. Before and after each treatment cycle, patients will undergo routine clinical examinations including blood tests. A maximum of 12 cycles will be given, and patients without disease progression will enter the maintenance phase. Tumor assessments will be performed every 8 weeks after the start of treatment (based on RECIST V1.1 criteria), and concomitant medications and adverse events will be recorded. The primary endpoint of this study is progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), safety, and the impact of the treatment regimen on infusion time.
