1.Have histologically confirmed colorectal cancer.
2.Have failed therapy with an oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine containing regimen defined as:
·Progression on or following treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer
·Progression within 12 months of adjuvant chemotherapy for colorectal cancer.
3.Have World Health Organisation (WHO) performance status 0-2 and life expectancy > 12 weeks.
4.Are suitable for treatment with irinotecan, 5-FU and leucovorin (FOLFIRI).
5. Be aged at least 18 years.
6.Provide written informed consent to participate in the study.
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years)
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years)
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
1.Previous treatment with small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors of VEGFR or EGFR eg, erlotinib, gefitinib. Prior monoclonal antibodies are permitted, eg, cetuximab, bevacizumab.
2.Previous adjuvant therapy with irinotecan within 12 months of randomisation.
3.More than one prior course of chemotherapy for treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer.
4.Any recent surgery, unhealed surgical incision or severe concomitant condition which, in the Investigator’s opinion, makes it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which would jeopardize compliance with the study protocol.
5.Current or prior malignancy within previous 3 years (other than colorectal cancer or adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in-situ carcinoma of the cervix).
6.Brain metastases or spinal cord compression unless treated and stable off steroids for one month.
7.With the exception of alopecia and neuropathy, any unresolved toxicity = CTCAE grade 2 from previous anticancer therapy unless specified eleswhere within these selection criteria. Persistent neuropathy >CTCAE grade 2 following prior oxaliplatin therapy.
8.At time of randomisation less than 4 weeks since completion of prior radiotherapy to the primary tumour or persistence of any acute radiotherapy toxicity.
9.Chronic inflammatory bowel disease, bowel obstruction or other current active gastrointestinal disease.
10.Significant cardiovascular event (eg, myocardial infarction, New York Heart Association classification of heart disease (NYHA) = 2) within 3 months of randomisation, or presence of cardiac disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, increases the risk of ventricular arrhythmia.
11.History of arrhythmia (multifocal premature ventricular contractions, bigeminy, trigeminy, ventricular tachycardia, symptomatic or uncontrolled atrial fibrillation) that is symptomatic or requires treatment (CTCAE grade 3) or asymptomatic sustained ventricular tachycardia. Atrial fibrillation, controlled on medication, is not excluded.
12.Left bundle branch block.
13.Hypertension not controlled by medical therapy (systolic blood pressure > 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 110 mmHg).
14.Baseline mean QTc measurement =480ms using Bazett’s formula. Patients who are receiving a drug that has a risk of QTc prolongation (see Appendix C, Table 2) are excluded if QTc is =460ms.
15.Patients with factors that increase risk of QTc prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events such as heart failure, hypokalaemia, congenital long QT syndrome, family history of unexplained sudden death under 40 years of age or any concomitant medication known to prolong QTc.
16.Any of the following laboratory values:
·Potassium < 4.0mmol/l despite supplementation
·Total calcium (or calcium adjusted for albumen) or magnesium below normal range despite supplementation.
17.Any of the following laboratory values:
·Total bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN (upper limit of normal)
·Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 2.5 x ULN if no demonstrable liver metastases or > 5 x ULN in presence of liver metastases.
18.Any
