ObjectiveWe aimed to clarify the clinical practice and outcomes of first-line cetuximab-containing chemotherapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Efficacy and safety were evaluated in each group classified by the European Society for Medical Oncology Guidelines 2012.MethodsThis prospective observational study included patients with previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer from 158 centers in Japan who started first-line cetuximab-containing chemotherapy from January 2012 to June 2013 and were followed for up to 3 years. The resection rates after chemotherapy were calculated and the overall survival was estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method for Group 1 (G1, potentially resectable), Group 2 (G2, not resectable and tumor-related symptoms) and Group 3 (G3, not resectable and asymptomatic).ResultsOf 578 patients, 562 were classified into G1 (n= 165), G2 (n= 224) or G3 (n= 173). The resection rate of any site was higher in G1 (57.0%) than in G2 (11.2%) and G3 (11.6%). G1, G2 and G3 showed median overall survivals (95% confidence interval) of 45.9 (38.1–not available), 16.7 (14.5–18.8) and 30.6 (23.2–34.8) months, respectively (P< 0.0001). The common tumor-related symptoms in G2 were pain, fatigue and anorexia, from which 31.7, 22.2 and 14.8% of the patients suffered at baseline.ConclusionsThe expected efficacy and safety of first-line cetuximab-containing chemotherapy were demonstrated in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer under clinical practice in Japan.Registered clinical trial numbersUMIN000007275
