摘要
Objectives: PETACC-1 assessed if raltitrexed is non-inferior to 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin for relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in adjuvant stage III colon cancer. Methods: Non-inferiority required both HR for RFS and OS < 1.25 at 1-sided alpha = 0.05. Patients (1921) were randomised to six cycles of 5-FU/LV (n = 969) or eight cycles of raltitrexed (n = 952). We report the final results in 993 eligible patients who started and completed the allocated treatment (489 5-FU/LV and n = 504 Raltitrexed) of whom respectively 146 and 148 died, respectively. Results: The trial closed prematurely when 17 (1.9%) raltitrexed-related deaths were reported. Haematological and gastrointestinal toxicities were more frequent with 5-FU/LV, liver toxicities with raltitrexed. Raltitrexed was stopped for toxicity in 13.2% and 5-FU/LV in 8.5%. Sixty-day mortality was 9% versus 7%. With 4.1 years median follow-up, the HR for RFS was 1.16 (90% CI 0.99-1.37) and that for OS was 1.01 (90% CI 0.84-1.23). Conclusion: The trial failed to demonstrate non-inferiority of raltitrexed.
