الوصف: | Purpose Investigate in patients with metastatic and/or irresectable colorectal cancer treated with systemic treatment with capecitabine or TAS-102 whether: 1. Intestinal microbiota composition can act as a predictor for response. 2. Intestinal microbiota composition changes during systemic treatment and its relation to chemotoxicity. Background Gut microbiota and host determinants evolve in symbiotic and dependent relationships resulting in a personal ecosystem. In vitro studies showed prolonged and increased response to 5-fluorouracil, a fluoropyrimidine, in the presence of a favorable microbiota composition. Capecitabine and TAS-102 are both fluoropyrimidines used for systemic treatment in colorectal cancer patients. Methods An explorative prospective multicenter cohort study in the Maastricht University Medical Centre+ and Zuyderland Medical Centre will be performed in 66 patients. Before, during, and after three cycles of systemic treatment with capecitabine or TAS-102, fecal samples and questionnaires (concerning compliance and chemotoxicity) will be collected. The response will be measured by CT/ MRI using RECIST-criteria. Fecal microbiota composition will be analyzed with 16S rRNA next-generation sequencing. The absolute bacterial abundance will be assessed with quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Multivariate analysis will be used for statistical analysis. Conclusions We aim to detect a microbiota composition that predicts if patients with metastatic and/ or irresectable colorectal cancer will respond to systemic treatment and/ or experience zero to limited chemotoxicity. If we are able to identify a favorable microbiota composition, fecal microbiota transplantation might be the low-burden alternative to chemotherapy switch in the future. |
