The purpose of this study is to assess the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with esophageal/stomach or colorectal cancer treated by trifluridine/tipiracil +/- oxaliplatin after an episode of cardiac angina-related thoracic pain due to fluoropyrimidines in the adjuvant or metastatic setting .
After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo a 14-day screening period to determine eligibility for study entry. Patient who meet the eligibility requirement will be included in the study and will be treated by trifluridine/tipiracil +/- oxaliplatin.
Trifluridine/tipiracil : 35 mg/m² orally twice a day from day 1 to day 5 every 14 days.
If oxaliplatin is stopped or it is not indicated, trifluridine/tipiracil in monotherapy 35 mg/m² orally twice a day between days 1-5 and days 8-12; repeated every 28 days.
Oxaliplatin : 85 mg/m² intravenous at day 1 every 14 days.
