This study offers access to the drug TAS-102 for patients with advanced colorectal cancer who have not responded to standard treatments and are new to TAS-102 therapy.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The purpose of this program is to provide the drug TAS-102 to patients with advanced colorectal cancer who have not responded to standard chemotherapy treatments. This includes patients who have not been treated with TAS-102 before and for whom this treatment is considered appropriate.

Description

This study is open-label, meaning both the doctors and patients know what treatment is being given. It aims to provide TAS-102 to patients with advanced colorectal cancer before it becomes widely available. Eligible patients are those who have already tried other standard treatments, such as chemotherapy and targeted therapies, but have not had success. The study will collect information on any serious side effects, whether or not they are related to TAS-102, as well as any pregnancies, overdoses, or medication errors. All side effects related to the study medication and any that lead to stopping the treatment will be recorded.
