Fruquintinib Plus Capecitabine Versus Bevacizumab Plus Capecitabine as Maintenance Therapy Following First-line Treatment for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter, randomized phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib plus capecitabine versus bevacizumab plus capecitabine as maintenance therapy following first-line treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients who have already achieved disease control (including CR/PR and SD), without discontinuation for toxicity, and are progression free after 4-6 months of standard first-line induction treatment will be assigned to 2 maintenance treatment groups by randomization in a 1:1 ratio to receive fruquintinib + capecitabine (Arm A) or bevacizumab + capecitabine (Arm B). The study contains a safety lead-in phase in which the safety and tolerability of fruquintinib + capecitabine will be assessed prior to the phase 2 portion of the study. All patients from Arm A and Arm B will be treated until progressive disease, death from any cause, unacceptable toxicity or informed consent withdrawal (whichever occurs earlier).
