Purpose Treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) commonly involves a
fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy regimen such as infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin,
and irinotecan (FOLFIRI) or fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin, often combined with
bevacizumab or an epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody. We studied the
effect of adding the novel antiangiogenic agent aflibercept (also known as ziv-aflibercept in
the United States) to FOLFIRI in patients with mCRC previously treated with oxaliplatin …
Purpose
Treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) commonly involves a fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy regimen such as infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI) or fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin, often combined with bevacizumab or an epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody. We studied the effect of adding the novel antiangiogenic agent aflibercept (also known as ziv-aflibercept in the United States) to FOLFIRI in patients with mCRC previously treated with oxaliplatin, including patients who received prior bevacizumab.
