Abstract: | Adjuvant chemotherapy for resected stage III colon cancer is indicated for all patients, including elderly patients >70 years. In general, adjuvant oxaliplatin-fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy should be started within 6 weeks after tumor resection and should be given for a period of 6 months. However, patients aged >70 should receive fluoropyrimidine mono-chemotherapy. This mono-therapy, but not an oxaliplatin-based combination, can also be considered for patients with standard risk stage II tumors without microsatellite instability. In stage II patients with a high risk constellation adjuvant oxaliplatin-fluoropyrimidine combination therapy should be considered. Patients with stage II and III rectal cancer require neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy with fluoropyrimidine followed by adjuvant fluoropyrimidine treatment. There is no role for the use of VEGF- or EGFR-antibodies in the adjuvant therapy of colon cancer or in neoadjuvant therapy of rectal cancer. The prognosis of patients with primary resectable colorectal liver metastases may be improved by adjuvant or perioperative chemotherapy, while neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy frequently facilitates potential curative resection of initially non-resectable liver metastases. |
