Abstract | BACKGROUND: The International Duration Evaluation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy (IDEA) pooled analysis compared 3 to 6 months of adjuvant chemotherapy for stage III colon cancer. Patients were classified into low risk and high risk, suggesting low-risk patients may be offered only 3 months of treatment. In this study, we aimed to assess the benefit of oxaliplatin in the adjuvant setting per IDEA risk groups, using data from 3 large adjuvant phase III studies, namely Multicenter International Study of Oxaliplatin/ Fluorouracil/ Leucovorin in the Adjuvant Treatment of Colon Cancer (MOSAIC), C-07, and XELOXA. METHODS: Using the MOSAIC, C-07, and XELOXA previously published studies, we identified 2810 low-risk and 2124 high-risk patients with stage III colon cancer. We used Cox regression model to evaluate the magnitude of survival differences between IDEA risk groups, according to oxaliplatin use. Based on design similarity and equivalent follow-up data, MOSAIC and C-07 were pooled, whereas XELOXA was analyzed separately. Subgroup analyses were also performed for T4 and/or N2 patients. RESULTS: Individuals with IDEA low and high risk derived overall survival benefit from the addition of oxaliplatin to adjuvant chemotherapy, with adjusted hazard ratios of 0.79 (0.66-0.95) and 0.84 (0.71-0.99), respectively. Among individuals with IDEA high risk, those with T4 disease did not gain overall survival benefit from addition of oxaliplatin with hazard ratio of 0.95 (0.71-1.27). Similar results were demonstrated using data from the XELOXA study. CONCLUSION:
