Study Groups

Chemotherapy with 5-FU/Leucovorin (LV) alone, with oxaliplatin or irinotecan or both
Plasma specimens will be collected for the measurement of plasma 5-FU level from patients receiving 5-FU/LV alone, with oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) or irinotecan (FOLFIRI), or both (mFOLFOXIRI) chemotherapy. 5-FU doses will be modified based on the assay results.
Biweekly 5-FLUOROURACIL (5-FU)
5-FU 2400 mg/m². Infusion for 46 hours. Leucovorin 200 mg/m². Either a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor or epidermal growth factor (EGFR) inhibitor or may be added to the regimen at the discretion of the treating physician. Repeat every 2 weeks.
Biweekly Modified FOLFOX6
Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m². 5-FU 400 mg/m² on day 1 as bolus (OPTIONAL). 5-FU 2400 mg/m² Infusion for 46 hours. Leucovorin 200 mg/m2. Repeat every 2 weeks
Biweekly FOLFIRI
Irinotecan 180 mg/m2. 5-FU 400 mg/m2 on day 1 as bolus (OPTIONAL). 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 Infusion for 46 hours. Leucovorin 200 mg/m2.
Repeat every 2 weeks.
mFOLFOXIRI
Irinotecan 165 mg/m2. Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2. 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 Infusion for 46 hours. Repeat every 2 weeks.
