| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our previous study showed that administering oxaliplatin as first-line chemotherapy increased expression levels of ERCC1and DPD in liver CRC metastases. Second, whether the anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody bevacizumab alters tumoral VEGFA levels is unknown. We conducted this study to validate our previous findings on ERCC1 and DPD, and clarifiy the response of tumoral VEGFA expression to bavacizumab administration. ERCC1 mRNA expression was significantly higher in the chemotherapy group than in the non-chemotherapy group, and were significantly correlated. VEGFA expression level was higher in patients receiving bevacizumab than in those who did not. This study confirmed that first-line oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy increases ERCC1 and DPD expression levels, potentially enhancing chemosensitivity to subsequent therapy. We also found that bevacizumab induces VEGFA expression in tumor cells, suggesting a biologic rationale for extending bevacizumab treatment beyond first progression.
