Second-line Doublet Chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) Plus Fruquintinib Versus Doublet Chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) Plus Bevacizumab in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
The standard second-line treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) involves chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) combined with an antiangiogenic agent, such as bevacizumab or aflibercept. Maintaining VEGF inhibition between first and second-line treatments has shown modest clinical benefits, with exploratory analyses suggesting that bevacizumab is more effective in smaller tumors. The ULYSSE trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib, a potent antiangiogenic agent, combined with a doublet chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) in second-line treatment for BRAF wild-type, MSS mCRC patients who have failed prior treatment.
