Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

The DelveInsight’s mCRC market report gives a thorough understanding of Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common, with metastasis being the major cause of death in the majority of patients. CRC starts in the colon or the rectum. These cancers can also be called colon cancer or rectal cancer, depending on where they start. Colon cancer and rectal cancer are often grouped because they have many features in common. CRC may develop when polyps, mushroom-like growths inside the colon, grow and become cancerous or cells along the lining of the colon or rectum mutate and grow out of control, forming a tumor.

CRC that spreads, or metastasizes, to the lungs, liver, or any other organ is called metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The most common site of metastases for colon or rectal cancer in the liver. CRC cells may also spread to the lungs, bones, brain, or spinal cord. If a person has been treated for CRC and cancer cells have been found in these areas, it may be a sign that the original CRC has spread. mCRC is different from recurrent CRC.

Generally, most CRCs (95%) are considered sporadic, meaning the genetic changes develop by chance after a person is born, so there is no risk of passing these genetic changes on to one’s children. Inherited CRCs are less common (5%) and occur when gene mutations, or changes, are passed within a family from one generation to the next. Often, the cause of CRC is not known.

Most CRCs start as a growth on the inner lining of the colon or rectum. These growths are called polyps. Some types of polyps can change into cancer over time (usually many years), but not all polyps become cancer. The chance of a polyp turning into cancer depends on the type of polyp it is.

If cancer forms in a polyp, it can grow into the wall of the colon or rectum over time. The wall of the colon and rectum is made up of many layers. CRC starts in the innermost layer (the mucosa) and can grow outward through some or all of the other layers. When cancer cells are in the wall, they can then grow into blood vessels or lymph vessels (tiny channels that carry away waste and fluid). From there, they can travel to nearby lymph nodes or distant parts of the body. The stage (extent of spread) of a CRC depends on how deeply it grows into the wall and if it has spread outside the colon or rectum.

Diagnosis

The first and foremost step in evaluating, approximately one-fifth of CRC cases are metastatic at the time of diagnosis. Patients can present with a wide range of signs and symptoms such as occult or overt rectal bleeding, change in bowel habits, anemia, or abdominal pain. However, CRC is largely an asymptomatic disease until it reaches an advanced stage. By contrast, rectal bleeding is a common symptom of both benign and malignant causes. Therefore additional risk factors might be needed to help identify those people who should undergo further investigation by colonoscopy. New-onset rectal bleeding should generally prompt colonoscopy in individuals aged 45 years or older. In younger patients, additional factors are used to identify those at highest risk for CRC (e.g., having a family history of CRC, change in bowel habits, unexplained weight loss, and blood mixed with the stool as opposed to blood on the surface of the stool).

Treatment

The goals of treatment Metastatic CRC is still an incurable disease for most of the patients, with most commonly liver, lung, or lymph nodes and peritoneal metastases. In the past, 15 years ago, median overall survival (MOS) was approximately 12 months, and the 5-year survival rate was 13%. However, the survival rate of these patients has increased, mainly due to the combined treatment of metastases with surgery and systemic therapy. Long-term survival or even cure can be attained in 20–50% of the patients who undergo complete R0 resection of liver or lung metastases, and around 70% 5-year survival of these patients can be achieved.

However, in the field of systemic therapy, there has been significant progress with new drugs in recent years. There are more options of initial systemic chemotherapy, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and fluoropyrimidines, in combination with targeted therapy with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies (cetuximab, panitumumab) in case of KRAS wild type tumors or anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors (monoclonal antibodies bevacizumab, aflibercept, ramucirumab, regorafenib as peroral tyrosine kinase inhibitor). The combination of these novel chemotherapies and targeted therapy now extends the mOS up to 40 months.

The treatment plan may include a combination of surgery, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy, which can be used to slow the spread of the disease and often temporarily shrink a cancerous tumor. Palliative care will also be important to help relieve symptoms and side effects. At this stage, surgery to remove the portion of the colon where cancer started usually cannot cure cancer, but it can help relieve the blockage of the colon or other problems related to cancer. Surgery may also be used to remove parts of other organs that contain cancer, called resection, and can cure some people if a limited amount of cancer spreads to a single organ, such as the liver or a lung. If the CRC has spread only to the liver and if surgery is possible—either before or after chemotherapy—there is a chance of complete cure. Even when curing the cancer is not possible, surgery may add months or even years to a person’s life.
