Study of Capecitabine and Cetuximab as First-Line Therapy in Patients With Metastatic Wild Type Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog (KRAS) Colorectal Cancer
Withdrawn before enrolling · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
In brief
The combination of capecitabine and cetuximab as first-line therapy will result in improved progression free survival compared to single agent capecitabine in patients with KRAS wild type colorectal cancer. Patients who are not able or willing to take Oxaliplatin/Irinotecan combination therapy are eligible for this study.
