A post-surgical LB executed 2-4 weeks after surgery will guide a "Molecular Adjuvant" treatment:

* ctDNA+ patients: CAPOX for 3 months
* ctDNA- patients: capecitabine (CAPE) for 6 months. LB after 1 cycle and if found ctDNA+ will be switched to CAPOX.

A post-Molecular Adjuvant treatment LB will be performed and instruct subsequent treatment:

* ctDNA+/+ patients: up-scale to a "Molecular Metastatic" treatment with FOLFIRI for 6 months or until radiological progression or toxicity;
* ctDNA-/+ patients: up-scale to a "Molecular Metastatic" treatment with CAPOX for 6 months or until radiological progression or toxicity. LB after 3 months at the end of treatment and in case of positivity switch to FOLFIRI.
* ctDNA+/- patients: de-escalate treatment to CAPE for 3 months. 3 LB performed within 3 months and in case of positivity switch to FOLFIRI.
* ctDNA-/- patients: interventional follow-up comprising 2 further LB and in case of positivity switch to CAPOX treatment.

DAY 1

* OXA 130 mg/m2 administered as intravenous infusion over 2 hours in 250 mL dextrose 5%
* CAPE 1000 mg/m2 administrated per os twice daily

DAY 2-14

• CAPE 1000 mg/m2 os twice daily

Cycle length is 3 weeks comprising 2 hours of oxaliplatin infusion every 21 days, 14 days of oral capecitabine and 7 days of resting.

CAPOX

DAY 1-14

• CAPE 1250 mg/m2 os twice daily

Cycle length is 3 weeks comprising 14 days of oral capecitabine and 7 days of resting.

Day 1:

* IRI, 180 mg/m2 administered as iv infusion over 30-90 minutes in 250 mL dextrose 5%, concurrently (via a Y-connector) with
* LV, 400 mg/m2 administered as an iv infusion over 2 hours, in 250 mL dextrose 5%, followed by
* 5-FU, 400 mg/m2 administered as a bolus injection (iv push administered by hand) and then at 2400 mg/m2 administered as a iv infusion over 46 hours.

Cycle length is 2 weeks comprising approximately 48 hours of infusion and 12 days of rest.

PEGASUS is a prospective multi-centric study designed to prove the feasibility of using liquid biopsy to guide the post-surgical and post-adjuvant clinical management in 140 microsatellite stable Stage-III and T4N0 Stage-II colon cancer patients.

The LUNAR1 Test (Guardant Health, Redwood City, CA, USA) will be used for ctDNA determination. For the efficacy analysis, the PEGASUS cohort will be compared with a cohort of 420 patients from the TOSCA trial (NCT00646607) population matched 3:1 for all known prognostic phenotypes.

A post-surgical LB executed 2-4 weeks after surgery will guide a "Molecular Adjuvant" treatment as follows: i) ctDNA+ patients will receive CAPOX for 3 months; ii) ctDNA- patients will receive capecitabine (CAPE) for 6 months but will be retested after 1 cycle, and if found ctDNA+ will be switched to CAPOX treatment.

Immediately after the end of the "Molecular Adjuvant" treatment a further LB will be performed and instruct subsequent treatment. Positive patients (ctDNA+/+ and ctDNA-/+) will receive an up-scaled "Molecular Metastatic" systemic treatment for 6 months or until radiological progression or toxicity as follows: i) ctDNA+/+ patients will be treated with FOLFIRI; ii) ctDNA-/+ patients with CAPOX. These patients will be subjected to a LB after 3 months at the end of treatment and in case of positivity will be switched to FOLFIRI.

Patients experiencing ctDNA conversion to negative (ctDNA+/-) will receive a de-escalated treatment with CAPE for 3 months. 3 LB will be performed within 3 months and in case of positivity the patient will be switched to FOLFIRI. Patients with ctDNA-/- will be subjected to an interventional follow-up comprising 2 further LB and in case of positivity they will be switched to CAPOX treatment. PEGASUS is piggybacked to AlfaOmega (NCT04120935), a Master Observational Protocol that will follow patients from diagnosis to 5 years or recurrence/death (whichever comes first), collecting clinical data, radio-images and biological samples. AlfaOmega provides a clinical and logistic ecosystem for the seamless integration of PEGASUS clinical results with the biological underpinning of colon cancer.
