Current Secondary Outcome Measures  ICMJE
 (submitted: March 30, 2022)
  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Randomization to Date of Death or until the date of first documented objective disease progression or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months) ]
    PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first objective documentation of disease progression per RECIST 1.1 (PD) or death, whichever comes first.
  • Disease Control Rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: Randomization to Date of Death or until the date of first documented objective disease progression or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months) ]
    DCR is defined as the percentage of patients with a documented complete response, partial response, and stable disease (CR + PR + SD) based on RECIST 1.1. The primary estimate of DCR will be based on patients with measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 at randomization
  • Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Randomization to Date of Death or until the date of first documented objective disease progression or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months) ]
    ORR is defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response and partial response (CR + PR) based on RECIST 1.1. The primary estimate for ORR will be based on patients with measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 at randomization.
  • Mean Change From Baseline for Global Health Status at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1) and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1). [ Time Frame: From baseline at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1), approximately 57 days and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1), approximately 113 days ]
    The Quality of Life (QoL) of patients will be assessed using European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) (EORTC QLQ-30) while the patient remains on study treatment (FOLFIRI with or without BBI-608). EORTC QLQ-30 is used to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients using 28 questions with a 4 point scale. (1 'Not at all' to 4'Very Much'); 2 questions use a 7-point sale (1 'Very Poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores are averaged and transformed to 0-100 scale; higher overall score = better quality of life.
  • Mean Change From Baseline for Physical Functioning Status at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1) and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1). [ Time Frame: From baseline at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1) and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1) ]
    The Quality of Life (QoL) of patients will be assessed using European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) (EORTC QLQ-30) while the patient remains on study treatment (FOLFIRI with or without BBI-608). EORTC QLQ-30 is used to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients using 28 questions with a 4 point scale. (1 'Not at all' to 4'Very Much'); 2 questions use a 7-point sale (1 'Very Poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores are averaged and transformed to 0-100 scale; higher overall score = better quality of life.
  • Number of Patients With Adverse Events in the General Population [ Time Frame: All adverse event are collected from date of signed informed consent until 30 days after protocol treatment discontinuation. Outcome followed until study discontinuation up to 4 years ]
    All patients who have received at least one dose of either BBI-608 or FOLFIRI will be included in the safety analysis according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.0. The incidence of adverse events will be summarized by type of adverse event and severity.

All patients must have received a minimum of 6 weeks of the first-line regimen that included bevacizumab (if applicable), oxaliplatin and a fluoropyrimidine in the same cycle. Treatment failure is defined as radiologic progression during or < 6 months after the last dose of first-line therapy.
  4. FOLFIRI therapy is appropriate for the patient and is recommended by the Investigator.
  5. Imaging investigations including CT/MRI of chest/abdomen/pelvis or other scans as necessary to document all sites of disease performed within 21 days prior to randomization. Patients with either measurable disease or non-measurable evaluable disease are eligible.
  6. Must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1.
  7. Must be ≥ 18 years of age.
  8. For male or female patient of child bearing potential: Must agree to use contraception or take measures to avoid pregnancy during the study and for 180 days for female and male patients, of the final FOLFIRI dose. Patients who receive single agent napabucasin without FOLFIRI must agree to use contraception or take measures to avoid pregnancy during the study and for 30 days for female patients and 90 days for male patients, of the final napabucasin dose.
  9. Women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 5 days prior to randomization. The minimum sensitivity of the pregnancy test must be 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG.
  10. Must have alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3 × institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) [≤ 5 × ULN in presence of liver metastases] within 14 days prior to randomization.
  11. Must have hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9.0 g/dL within 14 days prior to randomization. Must not have required transfusion of red blood cells within 1 week of baseline Hgb assessment.
  12. Must have total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × institutional ULN [≤ 2.0 x ULN in presence of liver metastases] within 14 days prior to randomization.
  13. Must have creatinine ≤ 1.5 × institutional ULN or Creatinine Clearance > 50 ml/min (as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI]) within 14 days prior to randomization.
  14. Must have absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 10^9/L within 14 days prior to randomization.
  15. Must have platelet count ≥ 100 x 10^9/L within 14 days prior to randomization. Must not have required transfusion of platelets within 1 week of baseline platelet assessment.

  18. Patient must consent to provision of, and Investigator(s) must confirm access to and agree to submit a representative formalin fixed paraffin block of tumor tissue in order that the specific biomarker assays may be conducted. Submission of the tissue is to occur prior to randomization, unless approved by the Sponsor. Where local center regulations prohibit submission of blocks of tumor tissue, two 2 mm cores of tumor from the block and 10-30 unstained slides of whole sections of representative tumor tissue are preferred. Where two 2 mm cores of tumor from the block are unavailable, 10-30 unstained slides of whole sections of representative tumor tissue alone are acceptable. Where no previously resected or biopsied tumor tissue exists or is available, on the approval of the Sponsor/designated CRO, the patient may still be considered eligible for the study.
  19. Patient must consent to provision of a sample of blood in order that the specific correlative marker assays may be conducted.
  20. Patients must be accessible for treatment and follow-up. Patients registered on this trial must receive protocol treatment and be followed at the participating center. This implies there must be reasonable geographical limits placed on patients being considered for this trial. Investigators must ensure that the patients randomized on this trial will be available for complete documentation of the treatment, response assessment, adverse events, and follow-up.
  21. Protocol treatment is to begin within 2 calendar days of patient randomization.
  22. The patient is not receiving therapy in a concurrent clinical study and the patient agrees not to participate in other interventional clinical studies during their participation in this trial while on study treatment. Patients participating in surveys or observational studies are eligible to participate in this study.
