Summary

This is a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter phase 3 clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib plus best supportive care (BSC) versus placebo plus BSC in participants with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). 691 participants were randomized to one of the following treatment arms in a 2:1 ratio, fruquintinib plus BSC or placebo plus BSC.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Provide written informed consent;
  • Age ≥18 years;
  • Histologically and/or cytologically documented metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma. RAS, BRAF, and microsatellite instability microsatellite instability (MSI)/mismatch repair (MMR) status for each patient must be documented, according to country level guidelines;
  • Participants must have progressed on or been intolerant to treatment with either trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) or regorafenib. Participants are considered intolerant to TAS-102 or regorafenib if they have received at least 1 dose of either agents and were discontinued from therapy for reasons other than disease progression. Participants who have been treated with both TAS-102 and regorafenib are permitted. Participants must also have been previously treated with standard approved therapies: fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-based chemotherapy, an anti-VEGF biological therapy, and, if RAS wild-type, an anti-EGFR therapy;
  • Participants with microsatellite-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) tumors must have been treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors if approved and available in the participant's country unless the patient is ineligible for treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor;
  • Participants who received oxaliplatin in the adjuvant setting and developed metastatic disease during or within 6 months of completing adjuvant therapy are considered eligible without receiving oxaliplatin in the metastatic setting. Participants who developed metastatic disease more than 6 months after completion of oxaliplatin-containing adjuvant treatment must be treated with oxaliplatin-based therapy in the metastatic setting to be eligible;
  • Body weight ≥40kg;
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1;
  • Have measurable disease according to RECIST Version 1.1, assessed locally. Tumors that were treated with radiotherapy are not measurable per RECIST Version 1.1, unless there has been documented progression of those lesions;
  • Expected survival >12 weeks.
  • For female participants of childbearing potential and male participants with partners of childbearing potential, agreement to use a highly effective form(s) of contraception, that results in a low failure rate ( 1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN). Participants with Gilbert syndrome, bilirubin 2.5 × ULN in participants without hepatic metastases; ALT or AST >5 × ULN in participants with hepatic metastases;
  • Serum creatinine >1.5 × ULN or creatinine clearance 1.5 x ULN or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) >1.5 × ULN, unless the patient is currently receiving or intended to receive anticoagulants for prophylactic purposes;
  • History of, or active gastric/duodenal ulcer or ulcerative colitis, active hemorrhage of an unresected gastrointestinal tumor, history of perforation or fistulas; or any other condition that could, in the investigator's judgment, result in gastrointestinal hemorrhage or perforation; within the 6 months prior to screening;
  • History or presence of hemorrhage from any other site (eg, hemoptysis or hematemesis) within 2 months prior to screening;
  • History of a thromboembolic event, including deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), or arterial embolism within 6 months prior to screening.
  • Stroke and/or transient ischemic attack within 12 months prior to screening;
  • Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to acute myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass surgery within 6 months prior to enrollment, severe or unstable angina pectoris, New York Heart Association Class III/IV congestive heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias requiring treatment, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 480 msec or any factors that increase the risk of QTc prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events such as hypokalemia, congenital long QT syndrome, family history of long QT syndrome, or unexplained sudden death under 40 years of age i
