Detailed Description:

Primary Objective:

  • To determine response rate (RR; complete and partial response[CR,PR] and duration after therapy with Aroplatin (Liposomal NDDP, L-NDDP) in subjects with locally recurrent, unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer refractory to 5-FU/leucovorin or capecitabine, and irinotecan.
