Abstract
Complexes trans,trans,trans-[Pt(N3)2(OH)(OCOR)(py)2] where py = pyridine and where OCOR = succinate (1); 4-oxo-4-propoxybutanoate (2) and N-methylisatoate (3) have been synthesized by derivation of trans,trans,trans-[Pt(OH)2(N3)2(py)2] (4) and characterised by NMR and EPR spectroscopy, ESI-MS and X-ray crystallography. Irradiation of 1-3 with green (517 nm) light initiated photoreduction to Pt(ii) and release of the axial ligands at a 3-fold faster rate than for 4. TD-DFT calculations showed dissociative transitions at longer wavelengths for 1 compared to 4. Complexes 1 and 2 showed greater photocytotoxicity than 4 when irradiated with 420 nm light (A2780 cell line IC50 values: 2.7 and 3.7 μM) and complex 2 was particularly active towards the cisplatin-resistant cell line A2780cis (IC50 3.7 μM). Unlike 4, complexes 1-3 were phototoxic under green light irradiation (517 nm), with minimal toxicity in the dark. A pKa(H2O) of 5.13 for the free carboxylate group was determined for 1, corresponding to an overall negative charge during biological experiments, which crucially, did not appear to impede cellular accumulation and photocytotoxicity.

Abstract
Photoactivatable agents offer the prospect of highly selective cancer therapy with low side effects and novel mechanisms of action that can combat current drug resistance. 1,8-Naphthalimides with their extended π system can behave as light-harvesting groups, fluorescent probes and DNA intercalators. We conjugated N-(carboxymethyl)-1,8-naphthalimide (gly-R-Nap) with an R substituent on the naphthyl group to photoactive diazido PtIV complexes to form t,t,t-[Pt(py)2 (N3 )2 (OH)(gly-R-Nap)], R=H (1), 3-NO2 (2) or 4-NMe2 (3). They show enhanced photo-oxidation, cellular accumulation and promising photo-cytotoxicity in human A2780 ovarian, A549 lung and PC3 prostate cancer cells with visible light activation, and low dark cytotoxicity. Complexes 1 and 2 exhibit pre-intercalation into DNA, resulting in enhanced photo-induced DNA crosslinking. Complex 3 has a red-shifted absorption band at 450 nm, allowing photoactivation and photo-cytotoxicity with green light.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemotherapy is a strategy that is currently used to improve the therapeutic efficacy of traditional chemotherapy while mitigating side effects. Heptaplatin, a platinum chemotherapeutic antitumor drug in colorectal tumors, is traditionally used in the clinic. However, its side effects and low efficiency in killing tumors remain unresolved. Herein, a facile supramolecular chemotherapy platform on account of the host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril and the commercially available heptaplatin was studied. At pH 7.4, heptaplatin showed a strong binding to the cucurbit[7]uril nanocarrier by 1H NMR, whose Ka was (1.38 ± 0.06) × 106 M-1 by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). At pH 6.0 in a tumor microenvironment, overexpressed spermine can exchange competitively heptaplatin from heptaplatin-CB[7]. This supramolecular complex achieved higher antitumor activity on colorectal tumor cells and lower cytotoxicity than the drug alone on colorectal normal cells. Furthermore, the antitumor mechanisms of supramolecular complex were investigated by apoptosis, cell cycle, and spermine synthase. It was found that heptaplatin-CB[7] consumed more colorectal tumorous intracellular spermine by the spermine synthase assay (413.85 ± 0.004 pg/mL); hepataplatin-CB[7] caused early apoptosis (87.73%) of colorectal tumor cells; heptaplatin-CB[7] induced an inhibitory response in the G1 phase of the tumor cell cycle. These findings demonstrated that heptaplatin-CB[7] had higher antitumor activity toward human colorectal tumor cells but lower cytotoxicity toward human colorectal normal cells. It is expected to promote the supramolecular chemotherapy and translational development of the nanocomplex into the clinical field.

Abstract
This commentary focuses on the results of the study by Pietrantonio et al., which evaluated the clinical conundrum of triplet versus doublet chemotherapy in combination with targeted therapy for metastatic left-sided RAS/BRAF wild-type colorectal cancer and appears in this issue. Both FOLFOXIRI [fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan] plus bevacizumab and FOLFOX [fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin] plus panitumumab have shown impressive activity in this population; however, the two have not been directly compared. The article by Pietrantonio et al. presents a propensity score-adjusted analysis using information from five previous randomized trials and provides best available evidence comparing these regimens. This commentary will discuss their results and how their findings fit in current treatment paradigms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cisplatin(CDDP)is a key drug for head and neck cancer therapy, but frequently induces severe adverse events including renal dysfunction. Nedaplatin(CDGP)was developed and is used in Japan; it has certain benefits over CDDP. Unlike CDDP, CDGP treatment does not require hydration. However, CDGP is not used globally and thus safety information is lacking. Therefore, we surveyed safety profiles for CDGP-based chemotherapy. METHODS A survey was conducted at Showa University Hospital. Thirty-eight patients treated for head and neck cancer combined with radiotherapy(RTx)and tegafur- gimeracil-oteracil(S-1)between April 2012 and March 2015 were included. Laboratory-based adverse events(WBC, Hb, platelet[Plt], SCr, Alb)and oral mucositis were assessed according to CTCAE v5.0. Time-onset profiles for adverse events were evaluated after starting chemoradiotherapy. RESULTS In 38 patients, Plt nadir was observed following 40(30-70)Gy and sustained for 14(7-35)days. WBC patterns followed similar profiles, but for Hb, nadir was observed following 60(40- 70)Gy and was less frequently sustained throughout the RTx. Alb and SCr levels were not correlated with therapy. Oral mucositis was observed following 50(10-70)Gy. CONCLUSION In conclusion, at approximately 40 Gy, we observed decreases in WBC and Plt, with an increase in oral mucositis. Based on these results, medical staffs must closely monitor patients, especially at doses within range of 40 Gy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triplet-agent (5-fluorouracil/leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan; FOLFOXIRI) combined with an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor antibody as a first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) has shown promising results in Western trials. This phase Ib study assessed the safety of FOLFOXIRI plus cetuximab in Japanese patients with RAS wild-type mCRC. METHODS Patients with previously untreated RAS wild-type mCRC received weekly cetuximab (400 mg/m2 at week 1 and subsequently 250 mg/m2) plus FOLFOXIRI that consisted of irinotecan (100, 120, and 150 mg/m2 defined as dose levels 0, 1, and 2), followed by oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 and l-leucovorin 200 mg/m2 and then 5-fluorouracil 2400 mg/m2. The dose level of irinotecan was escalated starting at dose level 1 in a 3 + 3 manner. The primary endpoint was to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase-2 dose (RP2D). Secondary endpoints included safety, overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Nine patients were enrolled. The MTD was not reached at dose level 2 and the RP2D was 150 mg/m2 irinotecan. The most frequent grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (44%), fatigue (11%), paronychia (22%), and acneiform rash (11%). No dose-limiting toxicities occurred in any of the enrolled patients. No treatment-related death was observed. The ORR was 89% (95% confidence interval 52-100%). CONCLUSION The safety profile of the combination of cetuximab and FOLFOXIRI was acceptable and promising anti-tumor activity was demonstrated, supporting further study in patients with RAS wild-type mCRC.

Abstract
Hyperammonemia is a rare adverse event of 5-FU. Here, we report a case of hyperammonemia with disturbance of consciousness during 5-FU plus nedaplatin therapy for esophageal cancer and present a literature review. A 69-year-old man was diagnosed with cT2N2M0, cStage Ⅲ esophageal cancer. He was administered with DCF therapy as the first-line neoadjuvant chemotherapy. After the first course, he showed renal dysfunction. Therefore, as the second-line neoadjuvant chemotherapy, he was administered with 5-FU plus nedaplatin. He vomited on treatment day 5 and suddenly presented with disturbance of consciousness on treatment day 6. Blood tests showed hyperammonemia(114 μg/dL). He was treated with rehydration and branched-chain amino acid solutions, resulting in a gradual improvement of symptoms. Hyperammonemia has been reported in patients with colorectal cancer but rarely in patients with esophageal cancer. A case of hyperammonemia during the 5-FU plus nedaplatin therapy has never been reported in Japan. We should be aware that 5-FU may cause hyperammonemia and resultant disturbance of consciousness during chemotherapy with 5-FU.

Abstract
A 66-year-old male diagnosed with transverse colon cancer was admitted to our hospital. Computed tomography, colonoscopy, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed locally advanced cancer with invasion of the gastric antrum. We staged the disease as cT4a, cN2, cM0, Stage ⅢB, with wild-type RAS expression. We performed an ileostomy prior to administering chemotherapy. The patient received 4 courses of modified FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab and 2 courses of FOLFIRI. The size of the tumor noticeably decreased after chemotherapy. The patient experienced grade 3 neutropenia, anorexia, and oral mucositis during chemotherapy. We performed a right hemicolectomy(D3), partial gastrectomy and ileum resection after administering neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The pathological stage of the disease was ypT2, ypN0, ypM0, ypStageⅠ, and the effect of the chemotherapy was Grade 1b. After the resection, he received mFOLFOX6 and CapeOX for 3 months as adjuvant chemotherapy. He remained cancer-free for 1 year and 3 months after the surgery. This result suggests that preoperative modified FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab chemotherapy is a useful regimen for the treatment of locally advanced colon cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE This trial evaluated the addition of cetuximab to a modified FOLFOXIRI (mFOLFOXIRI: 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid, oxaliplatin, irinotecan) as conversion therapy in a two-group, nonrandomized, multicenter, phase II trial in patients with initially technically unresectable colorectal liver-limited metastases (CLM) and BRAF/RAS wild-type. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were enrolled to receive cetuximab (500 mg/m2 ) plus mFOLFOXIRI (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 , irinotecan 165 mg/m2 , folinic acid 400 mg/m2 , 5-fluorouracil 2,800 mg/m2 46-hour infusion, every 2 weeks) (the cetuximab group) or the same regimen of mFOLFOXIRI alone (the control group), in a 2:1 ratio allocation. The primary endpoint was the rate of no evidence of disease (NED) achieved. Secondary endpoints included resection rate, objective response rate (ORR), survival, and safety. RESULTS Between February 2014 and July 2019, 117 patients were registered for screening at six centers in China, and 101 of these were enrolled (67 cetuximab group, 34 control group). The rate of NED achieved was 70.1% in the cetuximab group and 41.2% in the control group (difference 29.0%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 9.1%-48.8%; p = .005). Patients in the cetuximab group had improved ORR (95.5% vs. 76.5%; difference 19.1%; 95% CI, 17.4%-36.4%; p = .010) compared with those in control group. Progression-free survival and overall survival showed the trend to favor the cetuximab group. The incidence of grade 3 and 4 adverse events was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSION Addition of cetuximab to mFOLFOXIRI improved the rate of NED achieved. This combination could be an option of conversion regimen for molecularly selected patients with initially technically unresectable CLM. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE This trial evaluated the addition of cetuximab to a modified FOLFOXIRI as conversion therapy in a phase II trial in patients with initially technically unresectable colorectal liver-limited metastases and BRAF/RAS wild-type. The rate of no evidence of disease achieved was 70.1% in the cetuximab plus modified FOLFOXIRI group and 41.2% in the modified FOLFOXIRI group. Objective response rates, overall survival, and progression-free survival were improved in the cetuximab group when compared with the modified FOLFOXIRI group. Addition of cetuximab to modified FOLFOXIRI increased the rate of no evidence of disease achieved, and this combination could be an option of conversion regimen for molecularly selected patients with initially technically unresectable colorectal liver-limited metastasis.

Abstract
A male patient in his 80s, diagnosed with rectal cancer, underwent transverse colon resection(pT3, pN0, cM0, and pStage Ⅱa, RAS wild-type, BRAF-mutant). However, 19 months later, intraperitoneal metastasis was detected and the patient received 8 courses of mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab. Following the observation of an allergic reaction that was attributable to oxaliplatin, the regimen was changed to a total of 7 courses of sLV5FU2 plus bevacizumab. Subsequently, a marked decrease was observed in intraperitoneal metastasis. The patient completed sLV5FU2 plus bevacizumab chemotherapy. At 1 year after the marked decrease, the metastatic recurrence was not exacerbated.

Abstract
We had cases in which peripheral neuropathy was augmented after changing from mFOLFOX6, a chemotherapy for colorectal cancer, to FOLFIRI and comparatively examined disease status and trends. There were no shared points with respect to patient characteristics, timing of peripheral neuropathy augmentation, drug dosage, etc. It appeared that the change in chemotherapy itself had an effect on neuropathic symptoms. Regarding the change in chemotherapy, the therapeutic agent was switched from oxaliplatin to irinotecan; the cause was unknown, but some effects of these two drugs were suggested. Future investigation, including the examination of genetic mutations, is necessary.

Abstract
A 61-year-old man underwent CapeOX plus bevacizumab chemotherapyafter right hemicolectomyfor metastatic ascending colon cancer. On the 7th dayafter the first administration, he had sudden abdominal pain and nausea. Contrast-enhanced computed tomographyrevealed aortic thrombosis and a superior mesenteric artery(SMA)embolism that was considered to be associated with bevacizumab. Bevacizumab was discontinued and anticoagulation therapyusing heparin and urokinase was performed. Brain infarction of the left middle cerebral arteryoccurred on the 15th dayafter the first administration and thrombectomywas performed. Anticoagulation therapyusing heparin, bayaspirin, and edoxaban tosilate hydrate was performed. The aortic thrombosis and SMA embolism resolved with treatment, but the patient died following an increase in peritoneal dissemination. It should be noted that unexpectedlysevere aortic thrombosis occurred during the first administration of CapeOX plus bevacizumab for metastatic colon cancer.

Abstract
Cost-effectiveness is traditionally treated as a static estimate driven by clinical trial efficacy and drug price at launch. Prior studies suggest that cost-effectiveness varies over the drug's lifetime. We examined the impact of "learning by doing," one of the least studied drivers of changes in cost-effectiveness across the product life cycle. We combined time-series trends in effectiveness over time by cancer regimen using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicare database. We estimated the time-varying effects of treatments in colorectal and pancreatic cancer over their life cycle, including FOLFOX (leucovorin, 5-fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) and gemcitabine, on survival of patients. Mean prices over time by strength and dosage form were calculated using historical wholesale acquisition costs. We found consistent downward trends in the mortality hazard ratios, which suggest that effectiveness improves over time. In the case of first-line FOLFOX for colorectal cancer, the implied incremental cost-effectiveness ratio based on the observational data fell from $610,000 per life year gained in 2004 to $27,000 per life year gained in 2011. Cost-effectiveness estimated at launch is unlikely to be representative of cost-effectiveness over the drug's lifetime. In the drugs studied, the impact of time-varying clinical effectiveness dominated the impact of changing prices overtime.

Abstract
A 67-year-old man presented with abdominal distention and vomiting.Computed tomography revealed bowel obstruction due to a cecal tumor.We performed laparoscopic ileocecal resection after decompression with an ileus tube. Intraoperative findings included multiple disseminated nodules on the mesenterium surrounding the cecal tumor.The histopathologic diagnosis was poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, which consisted of glandular proliferation of atypical epithelial cells and dispersed infiltration of goblet cells. Immunohistochemistry showed positively stained neuroendocrine markers, such as CD56, chromogranin, and synaptophysin.The patient was diagnosed with goblet cell carcinoid of the appendix and treated with combination chemotherapy of bevacizumab, fluorouracil, folinic acid, and oxaliplatin.He remained free from progression for over 1 and half years with this treatment.Subsequent chemotherapy was ineffective, and he passed away.There is no established chemotherapy regimen for goblet cell carcinoid, which has the aspects of both adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine tumors.However, the present case suggested the efficacy of the mFOLFOX6 regimen in combination with bevacizumab for appendiceal goblet cell carcinoid.

Abstract
Perioperative chemotherapies are expected to improve prognosis of patients with colorectal liver metastasis(CRLM). In patients with a resectable CRLM, the adjuvant chemotherapy with 5-FU/LV effectively prolongs DFS or RFS. In patients with unresectable CRLM, a neoadjuvant chemotherapy with high response rate and high liver resection rate, such as FOLFOX(or CAPOX, SOX)plus bevacizumab, FOLFOX/FOLFIRI plus cetuximab, or FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab, could be an optimal regimen for the conversion therapy.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive value of carbohydrate antigen125 (CA125) and carcino embryonic antigen (CEA) expression and its guiding role of choosing chemotherapy regimen in post-operation patients with colorectal carcinoma.The clinical data of all patients, including laboratory data and pathological data, were collected from the electronic medical records. Kaplan-Meier Log rank test, COX regression model and subgroup analyses were employed to assess the correlation between the expression of CA125 and CEA in patients with colorectal carcinoma and the survival, and the effect on chemotherapy efficacy.Kaplan-Meier showed that CA125 expression is negatively related to the progression-free survival (PFS) of the post-operative patients, Median PFS was 1140 days in the patients with high expression, and Median PFS was 1387 days in the patients with low expression (χ = 4.715, P = .030); CEA expression is also negatively associated with the PFS of the post-operative patients, Median PFS was 1197 days in the patients with high expression, and Median PFS was 1424 days in the patients with low expression (χ = 4.992, P = .025). Subgroup analysis also showed that the patients with normal CA125 and CEA had better prognosis, median PFS was 1505 days, and the patients with CA125 and (or) CEA high expression had poor prognosis and median PFS was 1162 days (χ = 13.346, P = .001), and found that there was no statistical difference in patients with oxaliplatin plus capecitabine (XELOX) and oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and Calcium folinate (FOLFOX) chemotherapy in patients with CA125 and CEA low expression. However, in these patients with CA125 or (and) CEA high expression, the median PFS of patients treated with XELOX was 1082 days, and the median PFS of patients treated with FOLFOX chemotherapy was 1335 (χ = 4.547, P = .033).Expression of CA125 and CEA associated with the survival of patients, and have some guiding significance for chemotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer after operation; Compared with XELOX, FOLFOX chemotherapy is more effective for CA125 or (and) CEA high expression patients with colorectal carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of panitumumab supplementation for colorectal cancer remains controversial. We conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the influence of panitumumab supplementation on treatment efficacy of colorectal cancer. METHODS We search PubMed, EMbase, Web of science, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases through June 2019 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the efficacy of panitumumab supplementation for colorectal cancer. This meta-analysis is performed using the random-effect model. RESULTS Five RCTs are included in the meta-analysis. Overall, compared with control group for colorectal cancer, panitumumab supplementation is associated with the increase in objective response for wild-type (WT) KRAS (RR = 1.70; 95% CI = 1.07-2.69; P = .03), but has no remarkable influence on objective response for mutant KRAS (RR = 0.92; 95% CI = 0.79-1.08; P = .32), objective response (RR = 1.35; 95% CI = 1.00-1.83; P = 0.05), progressive disease for WT KRAS (RR = 0.94; 95% CI = 0.85-1.02; P = .15), mortality (RR = 0.86; 95% CI = 0.69-1.08; P = .20), or mortality for WT KRAS (RR = 0.94; 95% CI = 0.84-1.05; P = .28). In addition, grade 3 and 4 adverse events are found to be higher in panitumumab group than those in control group (RR = 1.17; 95% CI = 1.08-1.27; P = .0001; ). CONCLUSIONS Panitumumab supplementation can provide some improvement in objective response for colorectal cancer patients with WT KRAS, but results in the increase in grade 3 and 4 adverse events.

Abstract
A 69-year-old man with dyschezia was diagnosed with locally advanced colorectal cancer invading the urinary bladder and pelvis. We performed ileostomy to avoid passage disturbance because curative resection was difficult. The patient received 2 courses of modified FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab. The size of the primary tumor and lymph nodes decreased after chemotherapy. High anterior resection with D3 lymph node dissection was performed. Histopathological analysis revealed that the tumor stage was pT3, N0, M0, StageⅡ. The patient has been receiving adjuvant chemotherapy with oral UFT/UZEL for 6months. No recurrence has been observed for the past 4 months.

Abstract
A 71-year-old woman with advanced ascending colon cancer was admitted to our hospital. Abdominal computed tomography( CT)revealed locally advanced sigmoid colon cancer with suspected invasion of the liver and duodenum. The clinical stage of the disease was cT4bN3M1a, cStage Ⅳa, with wild-type RAS and UGT1A1 expression. An ileostomy was performed because of bowel obstruction. The patient received 6 courses of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab(Bev). The only adverse event was Grade 3 neutropenia. Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with lymph node dissection was performed. The pathological diagnosis was the absence of viable, Grade 3 carcinoma cells. This result suggested that preoperative FOLFOXIRI plus Bev chemotherapy is useful for the treatment of locally advanced colon cancer.

Abstract
A 73-year-old woman presenting with weight loss was diagnosed as having ascending colon cancer with synchronous liver metastasis. The liver metastasis was solitary but it occupied the medial and anterior segments. The size was over 9 cm in diameter and was located adjacent to the left, middle, and right hepatic veins, making it initially unresectable. Following surgical resection of the primary tumor, she received mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab chemotherapy, resulting in a decrease in size of the liver metastasis. During the 15 courses of chemotherapy, an allergic reaction to oxaliplatin occurred and oxaliplatin administration was stopped. Although the liver metastasis was considered to be in a stable disease state according to the RECIST criteria at the time following 32 courses of chemotherapy, we discontinued chemotherapy due to various reasons of the patient. However, the liver metastasis continues to be in the stable disease state, and has not grown for over 5 years since initiating mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab chemotherapy and for over 3 years since discontinuing the chemotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was aimed at evaluating the intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameter alterations of liver metastases of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) during antiangiogenic bevacizumab combination therapy. METHODS Twenty-five patients with CRC liver metastases treated with bevacizumab in combination with FOLFOX-or-FOLFIRI protocols were enrolled in the study. MRI was performed using a 1.5-tesla scanner pre-treatment (PT) and at 3, 6, and 9 months of therapy. Routine abdominal MRI sequences and an IVIM-DWI (diffusion-weighted imaging) sequence were obtained. The IVIM-DWI sequence was executed with 16 b-values varying from 0 to 1,400 s/mm2. The mean values of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), true diffusion (D), pseudodiffusion (D*), and perfusion fraction (f) of each metastasis were obtained for all b-values, and the time-related changes were recorded to analyze the chronologic responses to antiangiogenic therapy. The RECIST 1.1 criteria were used for the evaluation of treatment response. RESULTS The diameters of the metastases diminished significantly at 9 months when compared with PT (p = 0.03). The D (p = 0.10) and ADC (p = 0.21) values of the metastases increased at 9 months of therapy. D* was the highest at 3 months (p =0.24); it decreased at 6 (p =0.97) and 9 months (p =0.87) of therapy. The f value had peaked at 3 months (p =0.51) and started to decrease thereafter. At 6 months, f decreased to the lowest values (p =0.12). CONCLUSION IVIM parameters, particularly the perfusion fraction, may quantitatively reflect the response to antiangiogenic treatment. The antiangiogenic response manifests after 3 months of therapy before the RECIST-related response.

Abstract
FOLFOX therapy has been used for gastric cancer in Japan since 2017. We retrospectively analyzed the efficacy of FOLFOX therapy compared to that of FP. Forty-seven cases were evaluated between January 2010 and December 2018. Eighteen patients received mFOLFOX6 therapy, and 29 patients received FP therapy. The median time to treatment failure was 206 days in the mFOLFOX6 group and 58 days in the FP group. The response rate was 50% in the mFOLFOX6 group and 17% in the FP group. Neutropenia(56%), thrombocytopenia(50%), and peripheral neuropathy(56%)were the common adverse events in the mFOLFOX6 group, and leukopenia(69%)and neutropenia(69%)were the common adverse effects in the FP group. Based on our results, we conclude that, unlike FP, FOLFOX is an effective therapy for of gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main drawbacks of neoadjuvant chemotherapy of colorectal liver cancer metastases are related to the toxic liver damage. To determine the degree of biochemical and morphologic liver damage after therapeutic protocol treatment with "bevacizumab plus FOLFOX IV", as well as the correlation between the sex, age, the existence of metabolic syndrome, the length of neoadjuvant therapy treatment and the degree of liver damage. METHODS The study includes the total of 60 colorectal cancer metastases operated patients, divided into two groups of 30 patients: the group of patients who were treated with "bevacizumab plus FOLFOX IV" protocol as a neoadjuvant therapy - prior to liver metastases surgery and the control group, patients with the liver resection done without previous neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The following parameters were examined: biochemical liver function parameters, the presence of metabolic syndrome, pathohistological assessment of the degree of steatosis and SOS syndrome. RESULTS The increase in AF was observed in the experimental group (Z = 2.566, p = 0.010), Dbilirubin (Z = 1.970, p = 0.037), LDH (Z = 2.951, p = 0.003) and decrease in albumin values (t = 5.100, p <0.001). The pathohistological examination in only 3.3% showed moderate liver steatosis, while SOS syndrome was recorded in as many as two-thirds (66.66%) of patients in the study group. In 14 patients (46.7%) a mild degree was registered, and in 6 (20.0%) moderate levels of this type of liver damage. Pole (p = 0.13), age (p = 0.09) and length of administration of chemotherapy (p = 0.35), as well as the presence of metabolic syndrome (χ2 = 0.390, p = 0.830), did not have any statistically significant effect on the liver damage degree. CONCLUSION In our study, after the administration of the "bevacizumab plus FOLFOX IV" protocol, a statistically significant increase in AF, Dbilirubin and LDH, as well as a decrease in albumin values, were found. Dominant liver damage was by type of SOS syndrome (66.7%), while steatosis of the liver was recorded in only 3.3% of patients. Gender, age, the presence of metabolic syndrome and the number of chemotherapy cycles did not have any statistic significance on the biochemical parameters and morphological degree of liver damage.

Abstract
A 33-year-old man was diagnosed with bowel obstruction due to advanced sigmoid colon cancer and underwent an emergency laparotomy. The sigmoid colon cancer turned out to be unresectable because of firm invasion to the retroperitoneum with severe adhesions and diffuse dissemination. Therefore, unplanned jejunostomy was performed, which was complicated by high-output stoma and short bowel syndrome. His condition was stable enough to receive chemotherapy via parenteral nutrition and parenteral electrolyte solution infusion added to the diet. mFOLFOX6 plus cetuximab therapy was started 4 weeks postoperatively. Although oxaliplatin was discontinued because of worsening numbness, he was sustained without cancer progression by receiving chemotherapy for a year. Chemotherapy was interrupted by a Candida fungemia 13months postoperatively, and he died 4 months later. Patients with jejunostomy may have difficulty absorbing enough water and nutrients in the intestine; therefore, they are at risk of dehydration and electrolyte depletions due to high stomal output, and malnutrition due to the short bowel. These complications may prevent colorectal cancer patients with jejunostomy to be indicated for chemotherapy.
