Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as irinotecan and capecitabine work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing Giving more than one drug combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells It is not yet known whether irinotecan and capecitabine are more effective than irinotecan alone in treating colorectal cancer

PURPOSE This randomized phase II trial is studying irinotecan and capecitabine to see how well they work as second-line therapy compared to irinotecan alone in treating older patients with progressive metastatic colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare the objective response or stable disease rate in elderly patients with unresectable progressive metastatic colorectal cancer treated with irinotecan hydrochloride with vs without capecitabine

Secondary

Compare the tolerability of these regimens in these patients
Compare the quality of life and ability to maintain self-sufficiency of patients treated with these regimens
Compare the progression-free and overall survival of patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is an open-label randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to participating center WHO performance status 0 or 1 vs 2 number of associated comorbidities Charlson index 0-2 vs 2 and age 75-79 vs 80 Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 90 minutes on day 1 Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Arm II Patients receive oral capecitabine on days 1-14 and irinotecan hydrochloride IV over 90 minutes on day 1 Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Quality of life is assessed at baseline and then every 12 weeks thereafter

After completion of study therapy patients are followed every 12 weeks

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 78 patients will be accrued for this study
