Combination chemotherapy of mFOLFOX6 (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin) plus panitumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), is one of the standard treatments for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) without KRAS mutation. A few reports suggested no need of dose adjustment of cetuximab, a similar chimeric anti-EGFR antibody, in patients with renal impairment. However, panitumumab combined with cytotoxic drugs for hemodialysis patients has not been reported. We herein report a case of a hemodialysis mCRC patient successfully treated with mFOLFOX6 and panitumumab combination therapy.

Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency induces severe adverse events in patients receiving fluoropyrimidines. We encountered a 64-year-old DPD-deficient man with a severe capecitabine-related gastrointestinal disorder. He received capecitabine-containing chemotherapy after rectal cancer resection. During the first course of chemotherapy, he developed severe diarrhea, a fever, and hematochezia. Endoscopy revealed mucosal shedding with bleeding throughout the gastrointestinal tract. DPD deficiency was suspected because he developed many severe adverse events of capecitabine early and was finally confirmed based on the finding of a low DPD activity level in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. After one month of intensive care, hemostasis and mucosal healing were noted, although his gastrointestinal function did not improve, and he had persistent nutritional management issues.
