Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Colorectal Cancer

• Registration Number: NCT00234429
• Lead Sponsor: AstraZeneca

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to compare the activity of raltitrexed and ZD1839 versus raltitrexed alone as second line chemotherapy in subjects with colorectal carcinoma by estimating progression free survival (PFS) in each treatment arm.
