BICC-C Study A Randomized, Multi-Center Phase III Trial of Irinotecan in Combination with Three Different Methods of Administration of Fluoropyrimidine with Celecoxib versus Placebo as First-line Treatment for Patients with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Charles Fuchs (Principal Investigator) John Marshall (Co-Principal Investigator) Edith Mitchell (US), Rafal Wierzbicki (Canada), Vinod Ganju (Australia), Mark Jeffery (New Zealand), Joseph Schulz (US), Donald Richards (US), and the BICC-C Study Working Group (>100 study sites)
Background • In previous studies of metastatic CRC (mCRC): • Both infusional & bolus regimens of 5-FU with LV and irinotecan confer superior efficacy when compared to 5-FU and LV alone • Few studies have compared a combination using infusional 5-FU to the same combination with bolus 5-FU • Single-agent capecitabine offers equivalent efficacy to bolus 5-FU and LV in the adjuvant and metastatic setting • Few studies have compared combinations using infusional 5-FU & irinotecan to the same combination with capecitabine
Background • Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is up regulated in colorectal adenoma and adenocarcinomas • In phase III trials, celecoxib reduces the incidence of colorectal adenomas • In mouse xenografts of human CRC, celecoxib inhibits angiogenic factors and induces apoptosis and tumor regression • In xenografts, celecoxib appears to increase chemotherapy activity and reduce chemotherapy toxicity
