Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of TAS-102 versus placebo in patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Colorectal Cancer Drug: TAS-102 Drug: Placebo Phase 3

Detailed Description:
This is a multinational, double-blind, two-arm, parallel, randomized Phase 3 comparison study evaluating the efficacy and safety of TAS-102 versus placebo in patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients will be randomly assigned (2:1) to TAS-102 (experimental arm) or placebo (control arm).

Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall survival [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks. Survival status should be collected for up to 12 months after the last patient is randomized or until the target number of events (deaths) is met, whichever is later. ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free survival [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks. Tumor assessments will be performed until radiologic progression develops or the start of new anticancer treatment, for up to 12 months after the last patient is randomized or until the target number of events (deaths) is met. ]
  2. Safety and tolerability evaluation will focus on adverse events and laboratory assessments [ Time Frame: Through 30 days following last administration of study medication or until initiation of new anticancer treatment ]
