5-Fluorouracil/Leucovorin (5FU/LV) in Combination With Regorafenib in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

This is a non-inferiority randomized phase II trial investigating the efficacy and safety of 5FU/LV in combination with regorafenib for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer in the third-line setting. Patients will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio between 5FU/LV combined with regorafenib or trifluridine-tipiracil (FTD-TPI) plus bevacizumab. Arm 1 (Treatment Arm) will consist of the 5FU/LV administered to 38 patients as (LV \[400 mg/m² IV over 120 minutes\], followed by 5FU \[400 mg/m² IV bolus then 2400 mg/m² IV infusion over 46 hours\] in 2-week cycles) and regorafenib will be administered dose of 80-120 mg per day with weekly 40 mg per day increases to a maximum of 120 mg per day for 3 weeks on /1 week off until disease progression, up to 12 cycles of treatment. Arm 2 (Control Arm) received by an additional 19 patients, will be given as FTD-TPI, administered orally, BID, at a starting dose of 35 mg/m2 of body-surface area, on days 1 through 5 and on days 8 through 12 every 28 days. Bevacizumab, at a dose of 5 mg per kilogram of body weight, will be administered intravenously on days 1 and 15. The 28-day treatment cycle continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxic effects occurred or consent was withdrawn, up to 12 cycles of treatment.
