Authorised Phase III and phase IV (Integrated) Colorectal liver metastases

COLLISION RELAPSE trial Recurrent colorectal liver metastases: repeat local treatment +/- neoadjuvant systemic therapy, a phase III prospective randomized controlled trial

EU CTIS ID: 2024-515341-41-01

What this study is testing

Primary objective is to compare overall survival (OS) in both study arms, counting from the date of randomization to the date of death of the patient or to the last day of follow-up (censored).

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Histological documentation of primary colorectal tumor
  • Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
  • Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function as assessed by the following laboratory requirements to be conducted within 7 days prior to screening: Version 3 May 12th 2023 45 of 140 o Hemoglobin ≥ 5.6 mmol/L; o Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3; o Platelet count ≥ 100*109/l; o Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal; o ALT and AST ≤ 2.5 x upper limit of normal (≤ 5 x upper limit of normal for subjects with liver involvement of their cancer); o Albumine > 30 g/l; o Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal or a MDRD ≥ 50 ml/min; o Prothrombin time or INR < 1.5 x ULN, unless coumarin derivates are used. Due to interactions with capecitabine, all patients using coumarin derivates will be treated with LMWH instead. o Activated partial thromboplastin time < 1.25 x ULN (therapeutic anticoagulation therapy is allowed if this treatment can be interrupted as judged by the treating physician).
  • Written informed consent
  • Local treatment performed for initial CRLM
  • At least one recurrent CRLM eligible for local treatment (partial hepatectomy and/or thermal ablation

You likely can't join if

  • No target lesions suitable for both resection and ablation
  • Severe allergy to contrast media not controlled with premedication
  • Substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may interfere with the subject’s participation in the study or evaluation of the study results
  • Microsatellite instability (MSI)
  • Radical treatment unfeasible or unsafe (e.g. insufficient FLR)
  • The presence of extrahepatic nodal or non-nodal metastases; see below for additional information regarding pulmonary nodules
