E.1.3

Condition being studied is a rare disease

E.2 Objective of the trial

E.2.1

Main objective of the trial

The main clinical hypothesis is that patients having undergone radical resection from CRC do not present with detectable tumor DNA in the plasma, whereas patients with detectable tumor DNA two weeks’ post-surgery have residual microscopic disease, and consequently a high risk of diseases recurrence which can be prevented with adjuvant chemotherapy.

The primary aim of the present study is to investigate – in a randomized trial - if use of standard adjuvant chemotherapy therapy improves the disease free survival in patients with molecular biological residual disease where adjuvant chemotherapy is not standard treatment

E.2.2

Secondary objectives of the trial

Secondary aims include investigating molecular biological response to adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with post-operative ctDNA.

E.2.3

Trial contains a sub-study

E.3

Principal inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria
• Surgically removed Adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum
• Pathologically stage I or II disease, and radical resection
• Detectable ctDNA in two weeks postoperative plasma sample
• No indication for adjuvant chemotherapy according to DCCG guidelines (website)
• Age at least 18 years
• ECOG performance status 0-2
• Clinically eligible for adjuvant chemotherapy at investigators decision.
• Adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function allowing systemic chemotherapy (Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5x109/l and thrombocytes ≥ 100x109/l. Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper normal value and alanine aminotransferase ≤ 3 x upper normal value, and Calculated or measured renal glomerular filtration rate at least 30 mL/min)
• Anticonception for fertile women and for male patients with a fertile partner. Intrauterine device, vasectomy of a female subject’s male partner or hormonal contraceptive are acceptable •
• Written and verbally informed consent

E.4

Exclusion criteria
