Pemetrexed and TAS-102 in Combination With Bevacizumab in Refractory Colorectal Cancer

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2024-05-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Limited agents are optional after standard first and second line treatment for mCRC. Only Regorafenib and Fruquintinib are approved in China. PFS of these targeted drugs are not very long. Pemetrexed has shown significant efficacy in advanced lung cancer regarding PFS and OS with controllable toxicity. TAS-102 has been used in colorectal cancer with promising outcomes. Bevacizumab is also an important monoclonal antibody which could make benefits in treated patients. This study is aimed to explore the efficacy, safety in advanced colorectal cancer failed to standard therapy in Chinese population.
