Abstract：
BACKGROUND:The chronomodulated infusion of 5-FU, FA and oxaliplatin allows a significant increase in dose intensity and antitumor efficacy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Here we investigated if substitution of oxaliplatin with cisplatin produced a similar antitumor activity in previously untreated patients with advanced colorectal cancer. METHODS:We enrolled 21 consecutively evaluated ambulatory patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Each treatment cycle consisted of a 5-day course of continuous chronomodulated venous infusion of drugs. Daily doses were 600 mg/m2 5-FU, 150 mg/m2 FA (L-form), and 12 mg/m2 cisplatin. The cycles were repeated every 21 days. RESULTS:All patients completed at least 3 cycles. Overall a total number of 105 cycles were administered. One partial response (lasting 3 months) and 13 stable disease (lasting from 3 to 12 months) were observed. The remaining 7 patients had progression of the disease. Hematologic and gastrointestinal toxicity was always < or = G2 in all cycles. CONCLUSIONS:The results of this study discourage the substitution of cisplatin for the more active compound, oxaliplatin, in a chronomodulated schedule of infusion with 5-FU and FA in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
