Main Objective: The study aims to ascertain whether 3 months of treatment for colorectal cancer is as efficacious as 6 months with the further aim of providing robust evidence on the cost effictiveness of reducing the duration of adjuvant therapy.;Secondary Objective: Economic analysis to assess the 2 treatment alternatives; comparison of 2 randomisation methodologies;Primary end point(s): Disease free survival (defined as time from randomisation to recurrence, development of new colorectal cancer or death from any cause)
