Video interview with leading expert in metastatic colorectal cancer treatment from Oxford. Colorectal cancer treatment option. EGFR and anti-angiogenesis targeted therapies. ensituximab, panitumumab, Bevacizumab, aflibercept. Dr. Anton Titov, MD. Targeted therapy for colorectal cancer treatment came to market 10 years ago. Targeted medications are used in combination with classical chemotherapy to treat colon cancer. What could you highlight in use of targeted therapeutic medications in colon cancer and rectal cancer treatment? Dr. David Kerr, MD (Colon cancer oncologist, Oxford). I have been a colorectal cancer doctor for over 30 years. I first started as a young oncology fellow. We only had a single medication, 5 fluorouracil (5-FU), to treat patients with colorectal cancer. Untreated patients with advanced colon cancer or metastatic colorectal cancer had life expectancy around six months. 5-FU (5 fluorouracil) and folinic acid perhaps would extend life expectancy of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer to 12 to 14 months. We now combine targeted therapy with classic chemotherapy medications to treat colorectal cancer. Dr. David J. Kerr, MD. Now median life expectancy for metastatic colorectal cancer is around 24 or 25 months. We have ensituximab (NPC-1C) and Vectibix (panitumumab) for colon cancer. We also have medications that target epidermal growth factor receptor pathway. This has made a difference in improving life expectancy of metastatic colorectal cancer patients. Anti-angiogenesis medications, Bevacizumab (Avastin) and ziv aflibercept (Zaltrap) have a role to play in metastatic colorectal cancer treatment too. But there is no doubt that combination of classic chemotherapy therapy with one of these targeted medications helped. Dr. Anton Titov, MD. It should be used in Line 1 of treatment of colorectal cancer. Dr. David J. Kerr, MD. We moved to predominant use of EGFR inhibitors in KRAS wild-type colorectal cancer patients. We use molecular biology to select suitable patients with colorectal cancer. They would most benefit from these targeted precision chemotherapy medications. Dr. Anton Titov, MD. More advances will be coming in this area of colon cancer treatment. Colorectal cancer new chemotherapy targeted treatment options: EGFR inhibitors and anti-angiogenesis chemotherapy medications.
