Summary:
This is an observational study using data that has been collected from participants who
received their usual treatments.
Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is a cancer of the colon (large bowel) or the rectum
(lowest part of the bowel just before the anus) that has spread to other parts of the
body.
Regorafenib is an anti-cancer drug that blocks several proteins, called enzymes, which
are involved in the growth of cancer. The combination of anti-cancer drugs trifluridine
and tipiracil is called TAS-102. It prevents cancer cells from growing and multiplying.
Both regorafenib and TAS-102 are approved treatments for metastatic colorectal cancer and
are available for doctors to prescribe to people with mCRC after previous lines of
treatment have been unsuccessful.
Regorafenib and TAS-102 work in different ways and impact people differently. People
might receive one of these drugs first and followed by the other. The best sequence for
taking these drugs is still unclear.
Researchers have also found that TAS-102, when taken with another anti-cancer drug called
bevacizumab, helps people live longer than when taken alone.
To better understand the impact of the sequence of taking regorafenib and TAS-102 (with
or without bevacizumab), more knowledge is needed about how these work together in people
with mCRC in real world settings.
The main purpose of this study is to learn more about the characteristics and impact of
treatment in people with mCRC who received regorafenib and TAS-102 (with or without
bevacizumab) one after the other. This information will be grouped based on their
treatment sequence and age group (less or more than 65 years old).
In addition, the researchers want to learn about :
- how long participants were treated with regorafenib and TAS-102 taken one after the
other in a sequential order,
- any treatment for mCRC that the participants received after the sequential
treatment,
- any treatment received for a condition in which the bone marrow cannot make up
enough blood cells (a common side effect of cancer treatment), during the sequential
treatment,
- if and how often white blood cells that fight infection decreased during the
sequential treatment,
- the number of hospital or testing facility visits that participants had during the
sequential treatment, and
- how long did participants live (also called overall survival).
The participants in this study had already received regorafenib and TS-102 (with or
without bevacizumab) as part of their regular care from their doctors.
The data will come from the participants' information stored in an electronic health
records database called Flatiron mCRC EDM. Data collected will be from January 2015 to
December 2022.
Researchers will only look at the health information from adults in the United States of
America.
In this study, only available data from routine care is collected. No visits or tests
will be required as part of this study.
Criteria for eligibility:
Study pop:
Patients with mCRC who received sequential treatment of Regorafenib and TAS-102 (with or
without Bev), and patients with mCRC who received combo use of TAS+BEV from Jan 2015 to
Sep 2022 (or 3 months prior to the latest data cut) from Flatiron CRC EDM data (v Dec
2022 or the latest version)
Sampling method:
Non-Probability Sample
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

bevacizumab) after mCRC diagnosis, with at least one documented clinical visit on or
after treatment; OR
- Patients with mCRC who received combo use of TAS+BEV, with at least one documented
clinical visit on or after treatment
Exclusion Criteria:
