ESCAT: clinical review pendingBIO-POLD1-GERMLINEPOLD1 germline exonuclease-domain pathogenic (PPAP — polymerase proofreading–associated polyposis)IIA

Evidence cited from clinical guidelines; per-source evidence levels not yet structured. See Phase-2-of-CIViC-pivot for re-cite roadmap.
POLD1 germline pathogenic variants in the exonuclease (proofreading) domain cause PPAP — similar to POLE-PPAP but with a stronger endometrial-cancer signal in women (lifetime endometrial risk ~50% per published cohorts). Phenotype includes attenuated polyposis with early-onset CRC, endometrial cancer, and CNS tumors in some families. Confirmed-carrier surveillance protocol (Lynch-like): colonoscopy q1-2y starting age 20-25, endometrial sampling + TVUS q1-2y from age 30-35 in women (consider earlier given higher endometrial risk than POLE), EGD q3y from age 30, urinalysis q1y from age 30. Tumor ultramutator phenotype (TMB high) suggests immunotherapy responsiveness in advanced disease; pembrolizumab FDA- approved for TMB-H solid tumors. Risk-reducing hysterectomy + BSO after childbearing is reasonable to discuss in POLD1 carriers (analogous to Lynch INTENSIFIED-track decision).

Reason
Provisional current-line default from ALGO-CRC-ADJUVANT: step 1 did not select a treatment branch. Stage I — observation; Stage IV — metastatic algorithm applies.

Red flags — PRO / CONTRA aggressive

PRO-AGGRESSIVE

Triggers that push toward the aggressive track
  • Frailty/age profile precluding doublet-intensive or triplet chemo: ECOG ≥3, OR (age ≥80 + Charlson ≥3), OR composite (age ≥75 + albumin <3.0 + ≥2 comorbidities). Triggers de-escalation toward 5-FU/LV mono, capecitabine mono, or best supportive care.
    IDEA pooled analysis: 3 mo CAPOX adjuvant non-inferior to 6 mo for low-risk (T1-3 N1) stage III — explicitly designed for elderly / fragile. FOCUS-2 trial: capecitabine ± oxaliplatin in elderly mCRC showed acceptable efficacy with reduced…

CONTRA-AGGRESSIVE

Hard contraindications to escalation

What NOT to do

Explicit prohibitive rules, each grounded in a regimen / supportive care / contraindication entity
Standard plan (IND-CRC-ADJUVANT-STAGE2-HIGHRISK-FOLFOX)
  • Do NOT offer adjuvant chemo to dMMR/MSI-H stage II — no benefit, possible harm
  • Do NOT delay adjuvant beyond 8 weeks post-surgery
  • Do NOT add bevacizumab — NSABP C-08 negative
  • Do NOT continue oxaliplatin past Grade 2 functional neuropathy — switch to 5-FU/LV
  • Do NOT apply IDEA 3-month CAPOX data to FOLFOX (not interchangeable for duration reduction)
Standard plan (IND-CRC-ADJUVANT-STAGE3-FOLFOX)
  • Do NOT delay adjuvant beyond 8 weeks post-surgery if avoidable — diminishing benefit thereafter
  • Do NOT continue oxaliplatin past Grade 2 functional neuropathy — switch to 5-FU/LV alone
  • Do NOT add bevacizumab in adjuvant — NSABP C-08 negative, NOT a standard
Standard plan (IND-CRC-ADJUVANT-STAGE3-CAPOX)
  • Do NOT use CAPOX if CrCl <30 mL/min — capecitabine renally cleared
  • Do NOT add bevacizumab — adjuvant bevacizumab NSABP C-08 negative
  • Do NOT apply IDEA 3-month data from CAPOX to FOLFOX (FOLFOX 3 mo was inferior)
  • Do NOT delay adjuvant beyond 8 weeks post-surgery
  • Do NOT continue oxaliplatin past Grade 2 functional neuropathy — switch to capecitabine alone

Data quality

Usable with caveats. No critical default-track gap was found, but the MDT should review the listed caveats before final sign-off.
