A Phase II study on dose optimization of fruquintinib in elderly metastatic colorectal cancer patients refractory to standard treatment.
This is a prospective, multi-center, single arm, phase II study. In this study, the low-dose initial dose incremental optimization scheme was used in the first cycle in patients ≥65 years old who need to receive fruquintinib. The aim is to observe the safety, tolerability and efficacy of fruquintinib in elderly patients with mCRC refractory to standard treatment. The correlation between the efficacy, toxicity and geriatric evaluation of fruquintinib will also be analysed.

Fruquintinib was administered for 21 consecutive days of a 28-day treatment cycle. The starting dose of fruquintinib was 3 mg/day, weekly incremental dose escalation occurred up to the maximum of 5 mg/day if no significant drug-related toxicities were observed. The highest tolerated dose from cycle 1 would be administered in cycle 2 and all subsequent cycles.
