ClinicalTrials ID:NCT06887218

This clinical trial is testing a combination of chemotherapy drugs, 5-Fluorouracil and Leucovorin, with regorafenib to see if it is effective and safe for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have already tried other treatments.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of two treatment options for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have not responded to previous treatments. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either a combination of 5-Fluorouracil/Leucovorin and regorafenib or a combination of trifluridine-tipiracil and bevacizumab. The trial will help determine if the new combination is as effective as the current standard treatment.
