conferenceObject A phase II trial of metformin and fluorouracil (MetFU) for patients (pts) with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) refractory to standard treatment(2014) MIRANDA, Vanessa Costa; FARIA, Luiza Dib; BRAGHIROLI, Maria Ignez Freitas Melro; JACOBS, Monica; SABBAGA, Jorge; HOFF, Paulo Marcelo; RIECHELMANN, Rachel Pimenta- Phase 2 Trial of Metformin Combined With 5-Fluorouracil in Patients With Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer(2016) MIRANDA, Vanessa C.; BRAGHIROLI, Maria Ignez; FARIA, Luiza Dib; BARIANI, Giovanni; ALEX, Alexandra; BEZERRA NETO, Joao Evangelista; CAPARELI, Fernanda C.; SABBAGA, Jorge; SANTOS, Juliana Ferreira Lobo dos; HOFF, Paulo M.; RIECHELMANN, Rachel P.Effects of metformin in colorectal cancer have not been tested in clinical trials. In this phase 2 trial with 50 patients, metformin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) showed median progression-free survival of 2 months and overall survival of 7.9 months. However, among patients who experienced stable disease at 8 weeks, disease stabilization lasted for 5.6 months and patients survived for 16 months. Obese patients and those with longer periods off 5-FU seemed to derive more benefit. Background: Observational and preclinical studies have suggested that metformin has antitumor effects in solid tumors, including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the effects of metformin in CRC have not been tested in clinical trials. Patients and Methods: This was a single-center, single-arm phase 2 clinical trial where histologically confirmed CRC patients with measurable and progressing metastatic disease previously treated with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and an antieepidermal growth factor receptor (if the tumor was RAS wild type) were enrolled to receive metformin 850 mg orally continuously 2 times a day plus 5-FU 425 mg/m(2) and leucovorin 50 mg intravenously weekly until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary end point was disease control rate at 8 weeks. Results: Among 50 patients included, 11 (22%) met the primary end point. The median progression-free survival was 1.8 months and the median overall survival 7.9 months. Analyzing only the 11 patients who experienced disease control at 8 weeks, their median progression-free survival was 5.6 months and their median overall survival was 16.2 months. There was a trend for prolonged median survival for obese patients (12.4 vs. 5.8 months) and those longer off 5-FU. The treatment was well tolerated; the main adverse effects were diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and myelotoxicity. Conclusion: Metformin and 5-FU showed an overall modest but intriguing activity in patients with refractory CRC in this phase 2 study. Some patients experienced long-term disease control. Further trials are needed to confirm these results, particularly in obese patients with CRC.
