AMALTHEA: Prospective, Single-Arm Study of the Hellenic Cooperative Oncology Group (HeCOG) Evaluating Efficacy and Safety of First-Line FOLFIRI + Aflibercept for 6 Months Followed by Aflibercept Maintenance in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

The FOLFIRI + aflibercept regimen is active and tolerable; however, it failed to improve historical benchmarks of efficacy in chemonaive patients with mCRC. Preliminary data hint that this regimen has cytoreductive activity in disease with adverse biology.
