Low-dose Trifluridine/Tipiracil With Bevacizumab in Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: a Multicenter, Single-arm, Phase 2 Study
This is a phase II, single-center, prospective trial aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of a modified regimen of trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients will be treated with trifluridine/tipiracil (17.5 mg/m2 dose orally twice daily, d1-10, every 14-days) plus bevacizumab (5mg/kg dose intravenously once at day 1, every 14-days). The study treatment will be administered until progression of disease, intolerable toxicity or withdraw of consent.
