New strategy aims to extend control of advanced colon cancer

NCT ID NCT04587128

Summary

This study is testing whether using anti-EGFR drugs like panitumumab or cetuximab earlier in treatment can better control metastatic colorectal cancer and allow patients to be retreated with these drugs later. It will enroll 71 adults with left-sided, metastatic colon cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps keep the cancer from growing for longer periods and improves survival.
