Brief Title: Toxicity/Benefit Ratio Optimization of Chemotherapy in Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Patients by Determination of Individual Genotypic Determinants
Official Title: Protocole Evaluant Chez Des Patients Porteurs de Cancers Colorectaux Metastatiques l'Interet Des Determinants Genotypiques Pour l'Optimisation de l'Efficacite et de la Tolerance de la Chimiotherapie Par Irinotecan et 5-fluorouracile
Study ID: NCT00138060
Brief Summary: This study intends to optimize a fluorouracil/irinotecan chemotherapy regimen by the identification of individual thymidylate synthase (TS) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1 (UGT1A1) polymorphisms before the first administration. The results of this identification determine the chemotherapy type: high-dose irinotecan or not.
