(FRUITFUL)
What this study is about
This is an where both patients and doctors know the treatment given conducted at multiple hospitals, single-treatment group$1 Phase II study of Fruquintinib in combination with FOLFIRI (leucovorin calcium (folinic acid), fluorouracil, and irinotecan) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
View original scientific description
This is an open-label multicenter, single-arm Phase II study of Fruquintinib in combination with FOLFIRI (leucovorin calcium (folinic acid), fluorouracil, and irinotecan) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
Interventions
DRUG
fruquintinib
Participants will receive oral fruquintinib, with or without food, for the first 21 days of each 28-day cycle.
DRUG
FOLFIRI (Irinotecan, 5-Fluorouracil, and Leucovorin)
Participants will receive FOLFIRI once every 2 weeks on day 1 of every 28-day cycle (twice in each cycle). The FOLFIRI regimen consists of irinotecan given 180 mg/m2 intravenous infusion (IV), leucovorin 400 mg/m2 (or 200 mg/m2 levoleucovorin) IV, followed by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 400 mg/m2 bolus injection and 5-FU continuous IV infusion of 2400 mg/m2 over 46 to 48 hours. The 5-FU Bolus may be omitted starting from Cycle 1 Day 1 at the investigators discretion, specifically in participants with a history of cytopenias or toxicities within the first line of treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) rate at 6 months
Time frame: Every 2 cycles from cycle 1 day 1, until disease progression or death, up to 2 years. Each cycle is 28 days.
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) rate at 6 months, defined as the percentage of participants at 6 months who have not experienced disease progression as defined by the RECIST Version 1.1 criteria or death on study. Participants who are alive and free from disease progression will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
