Abstract: |
: Second-line treatment with ramucirumab+FOLFIRI improved overall survival (OS) versus placebo+FOLFIRI for patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma (CRC) [hazard ratio (HR)=0. 84, 95% CI 0. 73-0. 98, P = 0. 022]. Post hoc analyses of RAISE patient data examined the association of RAS/RAF mutation status and the anatomical location of the primary CRC tumour (left versus right) with efficacy parameters. Patient tumour tissue was classified as BRAF mutant, KRAS/NRAS (RAS) mutant, or RAS/BRAF wild-type. Left-CRC was defined as the splenic flexure, descending and sigmoid colon, and rectum; right-CRC included transverse, ascending colon, and cecum. RAS/RAF mutation status was available for 85% of patients (912/1072) and primary tumour location was known for 94. 4% of patients (1012/1072). A favourable and comparable ramucirumab treatment effect was observed for patients with RAS mutations (OS HR = 0. 86, 95% CI 0. 71-1. 04) and patients with RAS/BRAF wild-type tumours (OS HR = 0. 86, 95% CI 0. 64-1. 14). Among the 41 patients with BRAF -mutated tumours, the ramucirumab benefit was more notable (OS HR = 0. 54, 95% CI 0. 25-1. 13), although, as with the other genetic sub-group analyses, differences were not statistically significant. Progression-free survival (PFS) data followed the same trend. Treatment-by-mutation status interaction tests (OS P = 0. 523, PFS P = 0. 655) indicated that the ramucirumab benefit was not statistically different among the mutation sub-groups, although the small sample size of the BRAF group limited the analysis. Addition of ramucirumab to FOLFIRI improved left-CRC median OS by 2. 5 month over placebo (HR = 0. 81, 95% CI 0. 68-0. 97); median OS for ramucirumab-treated patients with right-CRC was 1. 1 month over placebo (HR = 0. 97, 95% CI 0. 75-1. 26). The treatment-by-sub-group interaction was not statistically significant for tumour sidedness (P = 0. 276). In the RAISE study, the addition of ramucirumab to FOLFIRI improved patient outcomes, regardless of RAS/RAF mutation status, and tumour sidedness. Ramucirumab treatment provided a numerically substantial benefit in BRAF -mutated tumours, although the P -values were not statistically significant. NCT01183780. |
