Abstract

Palliative chemotherapy in advanced colorectal cancer prolongs survival and maintains quality of life compared with best supportive care alone. Campto® is indicated for use, in either first-line treatment in combination with fluorouracil (5-FU) and folinic acid or second-line monotherapy. Results from three multi-centred randomized trials, have shown that Campto provides clinically relevant and statistically significantly improved response rates, time to progression and survival vs 5-FU/folinic acid alone or best supportive care, while maintaining the quality of life in patients with advanced colorectal cancer.
