- Standard treatment for patient with peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer is cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). In recent years, the efficacy of oxaliplatin-based HIPEC has been challenged. An intensified HIPEC (oxaliplatin+irinotecan) in combination with early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) has shown increased recurrence-free survival in retrospective studies. The aim of this trial is to develop a new HIPEC/EPIC regimen and evaluate its effect on morbidity, oncological outcome, and quality-of-life (QoL). This study is designed as a combined phase I/III multicenter randomized trial (RCT) of patients with peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer eligible for CRS-HIPEC. An initial phase I dose escalation study, designed as a 3+3 stepwise escalation, will determine the maximum tolerable dose of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) as 1-day EPIC, enrolling a total of 15–30 patients in 5 dose levels. In the phase III efficacy study, patients are randomly assigned intraoperatively to either the standard treatment with oxaliplatin HIPEC (control arm) or oxaliplatin/irinotecan-HIPEC in combination with single dose of 1-day 5-FU EPIC (experimental arm). 5-FU is administered intraoperatively after CRS-HIPEC and closure of the abdomen. The primary endpoint is 12-month recurrence-free survival. Secondary endpoints include 5-year overall survival, 5-year recurrence-free survival (registry based), postoperative complications, and QoL up to 3 years after study treatment. This phase I/III trial aims to identify a more effective treatment of colorectal peritoneal metastases by combination of HIPEC and EPIC.

- BACKGROUND: Results from previous studies indicate that use of aspirin may improve colorectal cancer (CRC) survival. The aim of this study was to assess whether use of aspirin influences overall survival or CRC-specific survival in an unselected cohort of patients diagnosed with CRC.METHODS: The study was performed using the Colorectal Cancer Data Base Sweden (CRCBaSe), a mega-linkage originating from the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Register, with additional linkages to other national health care registers. All patients diagnosed with primary CRC stage I-III treated with curative surgery, aged 18-85 years at diagnosis, from 2007 through 2016 were identified. Information on low-dose aspirin use was extracted from the Swedish Prescribed Drug Register. Exposure was defined as dispensed prescription for at least 6 months. Aspirin exposure was analyzed at the time of surgery (yes/no) and as a time-varying exposure during follow-up. Follow-up was restricted to a maximum 6 years, to model 5-year survival. Cox regression models were fitted to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Adjustments were performed for sex, age, year of diagnosis, Charlson comorbidity index, hypertension, and ASA score as potential confounders.RESULTS: A total of 32,195 patients diagnosed with CRC were included. 6764 (21%) were exposed to aspirin at the time of CRC surgery. The median time of follow-up was 4.2 years. Aspirin use at the time of surgery was not associated with all-cause (adjusted HR = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.97-1.08) nor CRC-specific mortality (adjusted HR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.91-1.07). Aspirin use during follow-up was associated with increased all-cause (adjusted HR = 1.09, 95% CI: 1.04-1.15) but not CRC-specific mortality (adjusted HR = 0.98, 95% CI: 0.91-1.06). A CRC-specific effect associated with aspirin was noted from approximately 3 years following surgery.CONCLUSIONS: In this large nation-wide cohort study there was no convincing association between aspirin use after CRC and OS or CRC-specific survival.

- OBJECTIVES: To facilitate high-quality register-based research on colorectal cancer (CRC) in Sweden by constructing a database consisting of CRC patients, matched comparators, and relatives.MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients with adenocarcinoma in the colon and/or rectum were identified in the Swedish Colorectal Cancer Register, a nationwide quality-of-care register. For each patient, six comparators from the general population were matched on birth year, sex, year of CRC diagnosis, and county. Comparators were free from CRC at the time of matching, but could later become cases. For both patients and comparators, first-degree relatives (parents, siblings, and children) were identified. Information from nationwide population-based registers was retrieved and linked to each individual in the database using the personal identification number unique to all Swedish residents.RESULTS: A total of 76,831 CRC patients diagnosed between 1995 and 2016 were identified (51% colon, 49% rectal; before 2007 only rectal cancer patients were included). Among all patients, 37% were stage I-II, 22% stage III, and 22% stage IV. The median follow-up time was 11.9 years (inter-quartile range, IQR: 8.6-15.3). Together with comparators and relatives, the database contains 2,413,139 individuals with information on demographics, dates and causes of death, in- and outpatient healthcare records, cancer diagnoses, prescribed and dispensed drugs, childbirths (among women), and social security information (such as sick leave and early retirement).CONCLUSION: The Colorectal Cancer Database Sweden (CRCBaSe) is a large and unique register-based data research platform, which opens up for clinically important, large epidemiological studies with innovative design in the field of colorectal adenocarcinoma.
