    • Notwithstanding recent treatment advances in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), chemotherapy with a combination of a fluoropyrimidine and a folate agent, often 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin, remains the backbone of treatment regimens for the majority of patients with mCRC. This is despite a recent focus on molecular-targeted treatments and patient stratification according to mutational status or expression levels of specific genes. Intracellular folate concentration was discovered to be pivotal in the cytotoxic efficacy of 5-FU, paving the way to the current standard combination therapy approach. Subsequent discovery that systemic chemotherapy agents, such as irinotecan and oxaliplatin, can further increase the efficacy of 5-FU-based treatments led to the development of several combination chemotherapy regimens, including FOLFOX, FOLFIRI and FOLFOXIRI. Subsequent efforts to optimise 5-FU-based treatments have focused on 5-FU analogues, initially capecitabine and the combination drug tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil (S-1) and then TAS-102, which has recently been evaluated in phase 3 clinical trials for refractory colorectal cancer. Further approaches taken to improve the efficacy of 5-FU chemotherapy regimens have focused on optimising the route and dosing schedules and regulating folate metabolism. Pharmacokinetic variability caused by the requirement for metabolic conversion of leucovorin has been central to recent research, and the development of agents such as arfolitixorin which bypass the need for metabolic conversion remains promising for future therapeutic candidates. In this review, we summarise the evidence leading to the current treatment regimens employing 5-FU and leucovorin, focusing on recent approaches taken to optimise and refine treatments to improve clinical outcomes in patients with mCRC.

  • Novel Common Genetic Susceptibility Loci for Colorectal Cancer.
  • 2019
  • Ingår i: Journal of the National Cancer Institute. - : Oxford University Press (OUP). - 0027-8874 .- 1460-2105. ; 111:2, s. 146-157

    • Background: Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 42 loci (P < 5 × 10-8) associated with risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Expanded consortium efforts facilitating the discovery of additional susceptibility loci may capture unexplained familial risk.Methods: We conducted a GWAS in European descent CRC cases and control subjects using a discovery-replication design, followed by examination of novel findings in a multiethnic sample (cumulative n = 163 315). In the discovery stage (36 948 case subjects/30 864 control subjects), we identified genetic variants with a minor allele frequency of 1% or greater associated with risk of CRC using logistic regression followed by a fixed-effects inverse variance weighted meta-analysis. All novel independent variants reaching genome-wide statistical significance (two-sided P < 5 × 10-8) were tested for replication in separate European ancestry samples (12 952 case subjects/48 383 control subjects). Next, we examined the generalizability of discovered variants in East Asians, African Americans, and Hispanics (12 085 case subjects/22 083 control subjects). Finally, we examined the contributions of novel risk variants to familial relative risk and examined the prediction capabilities of a polygenic risk score. All statistical tests were two-sided.Results: The discovery GWAS identified 11 variants associated with CRC at P < 5 × 10-8, of which nine (at 4q22.2/5p15.33/5p13.1/6p21.31/6p12.1/10q11.23/12q24.21/16q24.1/20q13.13) independently replicated at a P value of less than .05. Multiethnic follow-up supported the generalizability of discovery findings. These results demonstrated a 14.7% increase in familial relative risk explained by common risk alleles from 10.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 7.9% to 13.7%; known variants) to 11.9% (95% CI = 9.2% to 15.5%; known and novel variants). A polygenic risk score identified 4.3% of the population at an odds ratio for developing CRC of at least 2.0.Conclusions: This study provides insight into the architecture of common genetic variation contributing to CRC etiology and improves risk prediction for individualized screening.
