A Phase II Study of TAS-102, Irinotecan and Bevacizumab in Pretreated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.
Primary Objective:
Determine the median progression free survival (PFS) benefit of FOLFIRI naive patients treated with TAS-102 + irinotecan + bevacizumab as compared to historic control groups treated with FOLFIRI + bevacizumab.
Secondary Objective:
Estimate the objective response rate (ORR), median overall survival (OS), and adverse event (AE) profile.

adjuvant therapy with a regimen that included oxaliplatin
- Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1
- Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL
- Absolute neutrophil count >= 1500/mm^3

(CRCL) >= 30 mL/min (by Cockcroft-Gault)
- Bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2.5 x ULN or =< 5 x
ULN if with hepatic metastases
- Have measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1
criteria present
- Participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraceptive
methods (e.g., hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study
entry. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her
partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician
immediately
- Participant must understand the investigational nature of this study and sign an
Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board approved written informed
consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure
Exclusion Criteria
- Prior treatment with TAS-102 or irinotecan
- Anti-cancer therapy within 2 weeks of the planned first dose of study medication
- Unresolved toxicities from prior therapy of > grade 1, excluding alopecia or similar
toxicities which are not deemed to be clinically significant or put the participant at
greater risk. Grade 2 neuropathy is permitted
- Major surgery within 4 weeks of anticipated start of therapy
- Uncontrolled hypertension: systolic blood pressure >= 150, diastolic blood pressure >=
100
- Unstable angina, symptomatic congestive heart failure or cardiac arrhythmia requiring
anti-arrhythmic therapy (beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers and digoxin are
allowed)
- Arterial or venous thrombotic or embolic events within 3 months of study initiation,
unless well controlled on stable anti-coagulation for >= 2 weeks. This excludes
uncomplicated catheter associated venous thrombosis
- History of cerebrovascular or myocardial ischemia within 6 months of initiation
- National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)
version (v) 5.0 grade 3 or greater hemorrhage within the past 4 weeks
- Proteinuria >= 2+, unless 24 hour urine collection demonstrates =< 1 g of protein OR
spot protein: creatinine demonstrates a ratio of =< 1
- Untreated brain metastases
- History of abnormal glucuronidation of bilirubin (Gilbert's syndrome)
- History of second primary malignancy within 3 years prior to enrollment, excluding
in-situ cervical carcinoma, non-melanoma skin cancer or malignancy of equivalent risk
which is highly unlikely to require systemic treatment in the next 2 years
- Have known active infection which would heighten the risk of complications
- Pregnant or nursing female participants
- Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements
- Any condition which in the investigator's opinion deems the participant an unsuitable
candidate to receive study drug
