Brief Summary
Limited agents are optional after standard first and second line treatment for mCRC. Only Regorafenib and Fruquintinib are approved in China. PFS of these targeted drugs are not very long. Pemetrexed has shown significant efficacy in advanced lung cancer regarding PFS and OS with controllable toxicity. TAS-102 has been used in colorectal cancer with promising outcomes. Bevacizumab is also an important monoclonal antibody which could make benefits in treated patients. This study is aimed to explore the efficacy, safety in advanced colorectal cancer failed to standard therapy in Chinese population.

- Subjects treated with oxaliplatin in an adjuvant setting should have progressed during or within 6 months of completion of adjuvant therapy.
- Subjects who have withdrawn from standard treatment due to unacceptable toxicity and precluding retreatment with the same agent prior to progression of disease will also be allowed.
- Prior treatment with bevacizumab and/or cetuximab will be allowed, but the use of bevacizumab should be no more than one single line treatment.
