About this trial

This study is divided into two phases. The first phase aims to preliminarily evaluate the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib in combination with irinotecan liposome and capecitabine as second-line therapy for advanced metastatic colorectal cancer. The second phase is designed to further assess the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib in combination with irinotecan liposome and capecitabine compared to bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy, also as second-line treatment for advanced metastatic colorectal cancer.

The first phase is a single-arm study, while the second phase is a randomized (1:1) controlled trial. Entry into the second phase is determined by the investigators based on the efficacy results from the first phase study: if the primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) is met in the first phase, participants will proceed to the second phase study. In the second phase, randomization is stratified according to the RAS status and the presence of disease progression within six months of adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy.

In the second phase, patients will be ramdomly assigned to receive fruquintinib(4mg/d, PO, D1-14, Q3W) in combination with irinotecan liposome(56mg/m2, ivgtt, D1, Q3W) and capecitabine(800mg/m2, PO, BID, D1-14, Q3W) or bevacizumab(7.5mg/kg, ivgtt, D1, Q3W) in combination with the same chemotherapy. Every three weeks is a cycle.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients voluntarily enrolled in the study and signed an informed consent form, were compliant and cooperated with follow-up visits;

Patients with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma confirmed by pathology or histology;

Age: 18-75 (inclusive of 18 and 75), male or female;

Patients who have previously failed or were intolerant to first-line standard therapy (recurrence within 6 months of the end of adjuvant chemotherapy is considered first-line treatment failure).

Disqualifiers

History of major surgery or severe trauma within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of the study drug.

Use of immunosuppressive agents, including systemic or locally absorbed corticosteroids, for immunosuppressive purposes, with a daily dose of prednisone >10 mg or equivalent, and continued us within 2 weeks prior to enrollment.

Prior exposure to any irinotecan-containing chemotherapy regimen.

Reception of live attenuated vaccines within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of the study drug.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Fruquintinib+Irinotecan Liposome+Capecitabine

    Drug

    Stage 1: Participants received fruquintinib, irinotecan liposome, and capecitabine for 6-8 cycles. If no disease progression was observed after the initial treatment, patients were transitioned to maintenance therapy with fruquintinib and capecitabine. Stage 2: if the primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) was met in the first stage, participants were eligible for the second stage. Participants were randomly assigned to two groups (A and B), Group A: Fruquintinib + irinotecan liposome + capecitabine. After 6-8 cycles of treatment, patients who had no disease progression were transitioned to maintenance therapy with Fruquintinib + capecitabine

  • Bevacizumab+Irinotecan Liposome+Capecitabine

After 6-8 cycles of treatment, patients who had no disease progression were transitioned to maintenance therapy with bevacizumab + capecitabine
