Trial Status
Completed
Cancer Type
Colorectal Cancer
Protocol Title
A clinical trial comparing 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) plus leucovorin (LV) and oxaliplatin with 5-FU plus LV for the treatment of patients with stages II and III carcinoma of the colon.
Purpose of the Study
Adjuvant chemotherapy with 5-FU and LV given after surgery improves recurrence and cure rates for people with early colon cancer. Oxaliplatin is a chemotherapy drug that can help people with advanced colon cancer. This study determined if adding oxaliplatin to standard treatment can also help people with early colon cancer.

Aim
The primary aim of this study is to compare the relative efficacy of 5-FU + LV + Oxaliplatin (FLOX) with that of 5-FU + LV (FL) in prolonging Disease Free Survival. The secondary aim of the study is to compare the relative efficacy of FLOX with that of FL in prolonging Survival.
