Abstract 2735
Background
The AVANT study did not demonstrate disease-free survival (DFS) benefit of the addition of bevacizumab to oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in stage III resected CC and suggested a potential detrimental effect on overall survival (OS) (A. de Gramont et al. Lancet Oncol. 2012). Here, we present the results of the AVANT study for stage II CC patients.
Methods
The primary endpoint of AVANT was DFS for stage III disease. As an exploratory measure, AVANT also included high-risk stage II CC defined by T4, bowel obstruction or perforation, blood and/or lymphatic vascular invasion and/or perineural invasion, age <50 years, less than 12 nodes analyzed. OS and DFS were estimated by the Kaplan Meier method and compared by log-rank test and Cox regression model.
Results
573 patients had stage II CC (arm A: FOLFOX4, n = 192; arm B: FOLFOX4-bevacizumab, n = 194; arm C: XELOX-bevacizumab, n = 187), of whom 38 (19.8%) in arm A, 36 (18.6%) in arm B, and 40 (21.4%) in arm C had relapsed, developed a new CC, or died after a median follow-up of 6.86 years (IQR: 6.13-11.34). The DFS hazard-ratio was 0.94 (95% CI 0.59-1.48; P = 0.78) for arm B vs arm A and 1.07 (95% CI 0.69-1.67; P = 0.76) for arm C vs arm A. The OS hazard ratio was 0.92 (95% CI 0.55-1.55; P = 0.76) for arm B vs arm A and 0.85 (95% CI 0·50-1.44; P = 0.55) for arm C vs arm A. Safety data of stage II and stage III CC have been reported previously. In multivariable analysis, T4 vs T3-1 (P = 0.041), number of examined nodes (P = 0.005), and age (P = 0.0008) were prognostic for DFS. The 3-year DFS and 5-year OS rates of stage II were 88.2% (95% CI 83.7%-93.0%) and 89.7% (95% CI 85.4%-94.2%) in arm A, 86.6% (95% CI 81.8%-91.6%) and 89.7% (95% CI 85.4%-94.2%) in arm B, 86.7% (95% CI 81.8%-91.8%) and 93.2% (95% CI 89.6%-97.0%) in arm C, respectively.
Conclusions
In this exploratory analysis, bevacizumab did not prolong DFS and OS when added to adjuvant oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in resected high-risk stage II patients with CC.
