Background The anti-angiogenic fusion protein AFL targets VEGF-A, VEGF-B and PlGF. It is approved in combination with FOLFIRI for treatment of mCRC that is resistant to or has progressed after oxaliplatin-containing therapy. Methods QoLiTrap is an ongoing non-interventional study conducted in the DACH region to evaluate Quality of Life in 1500 mCRC patients treated with AFL+FOLFIRI using the EORTC-QLQ C30 questionnaire at baseline and before every cycle. Results For this interim analysis (cut-off: 02 Jan 2019) 839 patients (mean age: 64.7 ± 9.8 years; 64.4% male, 50.9% with documented RAS mutation, ECOG 0-1: 86.0%) who completed the baseline and at least 2 post-baseline EORTC-QLQ C30 questionnaires were evaluated. AFL was administered for a median of 7 cycles to RAS-wild-type (wt) (range: 1-61) and RAS-mutated (mut) (range 1-44) patients. Of those 772 patients with a previous therapy, 56.7 % received bevacizumab (BEV), 15.3% anti-EGFR antibodies (cetuximab and/or panitumumab) and 14.6 % both agents. 42.1% of RAS-wt and 56.7% of RAS-mut patients received AFL in second line setting. Median global health score at baseline was 58.3 and decreased moderately (mean change -3.4%, p Conclusions The current interim analysis suggests that FOLFIRI + AFL administered in routine conditions after either BEV or anti-EGFR is an active second-line therapy. Both RAS-wt and RAS-mut patients benefited from this combination. No clinically relevant decrease in global health status was observed during study treatment.
