Adjuvant FOLFIRI Based-chemotherapy After Resection of CLM Responding to Preoperative FOLFIRI

Eligible patients are patients with contraindication to preoperative oxaliplatin based-chemotherapy who underwent resection of no more than 10 colorectal liver metastases after preoperative FOLFIRI based chemotherapy with or without targeted agents. These patients must have objective response to treatment (radiologic or pathologic response). The standard care for these patients is no postoperative treatment although benefit of reintroduction of FOLFIRI chemotherapy in good responders could be expected. This study is a National, multicenter, open-label randomized, 2-arm, phase III superiority trial comparing postoperative reintroduction of FOLFIRI based-chemotherapy (experimental arm) vs no treatment (control arm) in patients undergoing resection of colorectal liver metastases after good response to FOLFIRI-based chemotherapy with or without targeted agent. The primary endpoint of the study is 3-year disease free survival. Based on published data, 3-year DFS in control group (absence of postoperative treatment is 25%. Expected 3-year DFS in the experimental group is 40%. The study will randomize 254 patients (127 in the chemotherapy group and 127 in the no treatment group) in 30 french academic centers.
