Abstract:
:Two trials of leucovorin (LV) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were done, both using a 3-day loading dose and then weekly doses to minimize toxicity. The first trial used LV administered by intravenous infusion with a constant dose of 5-FU 400 mg/m2, and the second trail used oral LV with increasing doses of 5-FU. In the first trail, 45 eligible patients (20 with and 25 without previous therapy) were treated. Toxicity usually consisted of diarrhea or weakness and was controlled by delaying or decreasing the 5-FU dose. Subjective responses occurred in 75% of patients but did not correlate with antineoplastic effect. Objective responses were seen in 36% and stabilization of disease in 31% of patients; these correlated with prolonged survival. Median survival was 8 months for patients with previous treatment and 10 for those without. Twelve-month survival was 32% and 40%, respectively. There was no correlation between the development of toxicity and response or survival. The second trial was conducted recently in cooperation with Duke University to determine toxicity and efficacy of oral LV with intravenous 5-FU before a randomized trial of this combination versus placebo with intravenous 5-FU. Eighteen patients were treated, and serum levels of folates were obtained on ten. First toxicity occurred at 5-FU doses ranging from 375 to 850 mg/m2, and consisted of diarrhea in nine, lethargy in seven, nausea/vomiting in four, dermatitis in four, conjunctivitis in two, hypersalivation in two, stomatitis in one, and profound granulocytopenia in one. Response rate was 35%, and stabilization was 35% with median survival of 14 months. Twelve-month survival was 56%.
