Second-line chemo plus TAS-102 combo for advanced colorectal cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests adding a new drug combo (TAS-102 and bevacizumab) to standard second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer, followed by local treatments. It may help if your first treatment stopped working and you are otherwise in good health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have colorectal cancer that has spread and cannot be removed by surgery.
- Your first chemotherapy treatment didn't work, and you are about to start your second treatment.
- You must have at least one tumor that can be measured on scans.
- Your overall health and daily activities are good (ECOG score of 0 or 1).
- You have not taken TAS-102 before, and you do not have a bleeding disorder or take full-dose blood thinners.

This trial tests a new combination—fruquintinib (a targeted pill) plus TAS-102 (another chemo pill)—against a standard regimen of bevacizumab (Avastin) plus TAS-102 for people whose advanced colorectal cancer has continued to grow after multiple prior treatments.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, TAS-102 and bevacizumab, as a follow-up maintenance treatment for people with advanced colorectal cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can keep the cancer from growing after initial chemotherapy and bevacizumab therapy.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, TAS-102 (an oral chemotherapy) and bevacizumab (a targeted therapy), as a first treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that has spread. It may be an option for people who cannot have or do not tolerate standard combination chemotherapy.
This trial tests a lower dose of a chemotherapy pill (trifluridine/tipiracil) combined with bevacizumab for advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer with fewer side effects.
This Phase 2 trial tests a chemotherapy combination (liposomal irinotecan), along with TAS-102 and bevacizumab, in people with metastatic colon cancer. It may help if your tumor has mismatch repair–proficient features and you’ve already tried standard colon cancer drugs.
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment plan that alternates two cancer pills and adds bevacizumab (a blood-vessel drug) for metastatic colon cancer that has come back or worsened after standard treatment. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease growth after later-line therapy options.
