BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with a significant portion of patients presenting with metastatic disease at diagnosis. Resistance to initial anti-EGFR therapy, a key treatment for RAS wild-type metastatic CRC, remains a major challenge. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of rechallenge with anti-EGFR therapy in patients with metastatic CRC who have progressed after prior treatments.
METHODS: A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Scopus. Studies were included if they were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or observational studies involving patients with EGFR-mutated metastatic CRC who received anti-EGFR therapy as a rechallenge. Endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and the incidence of adverse events. Statistical analyses were performed using the DerSimonian/Laird random effect model, with heterogeneity assessed via I2 statistics. R, version 4.2.3, was used for statistical analyses.
RESULTS: Fourteen studies were included with 520 patients; 50.3% were male, and the median age was 63 years old. The median progression-free survival (mPFS) ranged between 2.4 and 4.9 months, while the median overall survival (mOS) ranged from 5 to 17.8 months. Our pooled analysis demonstrated an objective response rate (ORR) of 17.70% (95% CI, 8.58-26.82%) and a disease control rate (DCR) of 61.72% (95% CI, 53.32-70.11%), both with significant heterogeneity (I2, 84% and 80%, respectively; p < 0.01). In the subgroup analysis, cetuximab showed an ORR of 18.31% (95% CI, 4.67-31.94%), and panitumumab an ORR of 10.9% (95% CI, 0.00-26.82%), while the combination of both resulted in an ORR of 29.24% (95% CI, 0.00-65.84%). For DCR, cetuximab resulted in 62.1% (95% CI, 49.32-74.87%), panitumumab in 63.05% (95% CI, 52.13-73.97%), and the combination in 60.34% (95% CI, 31.92-88.77%), all with significant heterogeneity. Adverse events included anemia (15.39%), diarrhea (4.20%), hypomagnesemia (6.40%), neutropenia (22.57%), and skin rash (13.22%).
CONCLUSIONS: Rechallenge with anti-EGFR therapy in metastatic CRC patients shows moderate efficacy with manageable safety profiles. These findings highlight the need for careful patient selection and monitoring to optimize outcomes. Further studies are warranted to refine strategies for maximizing the therapeutic benefits of anti-EGFR rechallenge.
