Rectal Cancer: French Prodige Study: Best of ASCO, Beirut, July 2009 Prof Eric Van Cutsem, MD, PhD Digestive Oncology Leuven, Belgium
Results of the Prodige 2-ACCORD 12/0405Randomized trial comparing two neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy (Cape 45 vs Capox 50)in patients with T3-4 rectal cancer. Nice Jean-Pierre GERARD, D. Azria, S. Gourgou-Bourgade, I. Martel-Laffay, C. Hennequin, P.L. Etienne, V. Vendrely, T. Conroy, E. François, C.

Background (1) ■ Surgery "TME" (sharp dissection) cornerstone of treatment of T3-4 M0 rectal cancer ■ German CAO/ARO Phase III trial (2004) Preop CT-RT > postop (standard) Local control - toxicity 30/05/2009

2005 : How to optimize neoadjuvant treatment for T3-4 Nx M0 rectal cancer ? • FFCD 92.03 : RT 45 Gy/5 weeks - 5 FU 225 mg/m² • ACCORD 12/0405-Prodige 2 pragmatic approach : 2 modifications • RT dose increase : 50 Gy/5 weeks (BED + 15%) • CT intensification : Oxaliplatin (50 mg/m²) Capecitabine (1600 mg/m²/d) = 5FU - LV 30/05/2009
Accord 12 inclusion criteria As in FFCD 92.03 ■ Adenocarcinoma of rectum ■ Accessible to digital examination ■ T3-4 resectable N0-2 M0 T2 distal anterior rectum - Workup = EUS – MRI – CT (Th. Abd) 30/05/2009

Weaknesses and limitations of study • Short Follow up (12m) no clinical end point (loc. DFS) • Primary end point : not significant (ypCR) (0.11) • ypCR : not a good surrogate end point • Two modifications : RT dose – oxaliplatin BUT : good overview of French clinical practice 56 institutions (30 academic) 2006-2008 30/05/2009
Summary Main results "Capox 50" • Early G3-4 toxicity : increased 25% • Surgery performed : no detriment 99% • Operative death (60 days) : low 0.3% • Sphincter preservation : no increase 75% • CRM "negative" trend ++ 93% • ypCR trend ++ 19% 30/05/2009

When analysing the results of ACCORD 12 trial with reference to the STAR trial the following comments and suggestions can be made regarding : (1) Oxaliplatin (2) Dose of RT (3) Capecitabine 30/05/2009
(1) Oxaliplatin increases toxicity (diarrhea) without impact on ypCR (not radiosensitizer) (occult. M1 ?) (2) 50 Gy/5 weeks compatible with surgery and increase ypCR and CRM "negative" (RX dose effect) (3) Capecitabine has the same activity as 5FU 30/05/2009
