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

"Interest of Postoperative Reintroduction of Chemotherapy in Patients Undergoing Resection of Colorectal Liver Metastases After Good Response to FOLFIRI-based Chemotherapy With or Without Targeted Agent" (Intergroup FRENCH- PRODIGE)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

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.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Palliative/R2 resection of CLM
  • 10 lesions or more treated at the time of surgery
  • Patients undergoing only radiofrequency ablation of all liver deposit (this situation precludes the assessment of pathologic response to preoperative chemotherapy)
  • Absence of objective response to therapy (radiological or pathological response )
  • Persistent toxicity ≥ grade 1 related to preoperative FOLFIRI based chemotherapy

Other illness

  • Inflammatory bowel disease

Other

  • Extra-hepatic or residual metastasis of CRC
  • Known UGT1A1\*28 allele homozygosity
  • complete absence of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) activity (blood uracil level ≥ 150 ng/ml
  • Contraindications to investigational medicinal products (irinotecan, 5-FU, folinic acid) and to auxiliary medicinal products (ondansetron, methylprednisolone)
  • Known pregnancy (pregnancy test for women of childbearing) or breastfeeding women

Who the study is looking for

  • Histologically proven resected metachronous CLM with curative intent that could not be treated with perioperative oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy for oncologic or tolerability reasons. For this study, metachronous CLM is defined as liver recurrence occurring more than 12 months after treatment of the primary colorectal cancer.
  • No more than 10 treated CLM at surgery
  • At least 2 cycles and no more than 8 cycles of preoperative FOLFIRI based chemotherapy ± targeted therapy.
  • Preoperative FOLFIRI based chemotherapy ± targeted therapy administered no more than 12 weeks before surgery
  • R0/R1resection ± radiofrequency ablation with curative intent of all liver deposits with no macroscopic residual liver disease
  • Objective response to preoperative therapy defined as complete or partial radiological response and/or major or complete pathologic response or stable desease
  • No extrahepatic or residual liver disease on baseline work-up including thoraco-abdominal CT scan within 6 weeks after surgery. 1 non-specific lung nodule of less than 10 mm in maximum diameter is not considered as extra-hepatic metastases
  • Primary tumor (or liver metastasis) of CRC must be characterized for RAS and BRAF status
  • No contraindication to FOLFIRI based chemotherapy
  • Patients must be 18 years old or older
  • A WHO performance status of 0 or 1
  • Participants must be affiliated to a social security scheme
