Abstract:
351 Background: 5-FU is the backbone of most chemotherapy regimens in GI oncology. Patients with DPD deficiency can experience early onset severe (5%) even fatal (0.3%) toxic side-effects. We decided to confirm the medical and economic interest of pre-therapeutic screening of DPD deficiency using a multiparametric approach in a multicenter prospective cohort study (Eudract n°2008-000026-39). Methods: Two parallel cohorts of patients treated with 5-FU-based chemotherapy for colorectal carcinoma were compared: Group A: initial DPD activity evaluation; Group B: no evaluation. Enrollment in either group was based on 5-FU administration guidelines at each institution. DPD deficiency screening combined genotyping and phenotyping (ODPM Tox) as well as other patient characteristics (1,2,3). The 2 groups were compared in terms of early 5-FU-induced toxicity grade, toxicity cost and DPD screening cost. The enrollment was to be immediately closed if 5-FU-induced toxic death occurred. Results: 1,130 patients were included from to 16/06/2008 to 07/31/2012. Group A: no severe toxicity despite 1 patient with complete deficiency (5-FU replaced by another TS inhibitor), 17 patients with partial deficiency safely received PK-monitored 5-FU (ODPM Protocol). Group B: 1 death: 65 y.o. patient, adjuvant FOLFOX 4, 5-FU-induced SAE at day 6: grade 4 febrile neutropenia, septicemia, diarrhoea, mucositis and secondary dehydration, renal failure, then death. 5-FU imputable Grade 5 SAE declared by investigator. Complete DPD deficiency retrospectively confirmed. The enrollment was prematurely closed after unanimous experts’ decision for ethical reasons. Data treatment is ongoing. Conclusions: One complete deficiency occurred in both groups: Group A patient had safe treatment whereas Group B patient died due to 5-FU grade 5 toxicity. DPD deficiency screening by a multiparametric approach (ODPM Tox) should be performed before 5-FU treatments. Clinical trial information: 2008-000026-39. [Table: see text]
