Description
Six patients participating in a large retrospective study of cetuximab in metastatic, treatment refractory colorectal cancer had tumors which harbored KRAS Q61H (either c.183A > C or >T) and were wildtype for BRAF and PIK3CA mutations. A 73 year old man who was treated with cetixumab and irinotecan as a fourth line therapy experienced stable disease, with a PFS of 36 weeks and OS of 57 weeks. A 65 year old man who was treated with cetuximab and irinotecan as a 3rd line therapy experienced stable disease with a PFS of 32 weeks and an OS of 51 weeks. A 70 year old female who was treated with cetuximab, oxaliplatin and 5FU as a second line therapy experienced progressive disease after 4 weeks of treatment. A 66 year old male who was treated with cetuximab and irinotecan as a 4th line therapy experienced progression after 6 week and had an OS of 21 weeks. A 71 year old female who was treated with cetuximab and folfiri as a 3rd line therapy experienced progression after 8 weeks and had an OS of 116 weeks. A 77 year old male who was treated with cetuximab and irinotecan as a 4th line therapy experienced progression after 8 weeks and had an overall survival of 17 weeks. A 66 year old male who was treated with cetuximab and irinotecan as a 3rd line therapy experienced stable disease (11 weeks) and an OS of 14 weeks. In this study, authors considered stable disease to be non-response to treatment.
