NCT ID NCT03451370

First seen Apr 28, 2026 ยท Last updated Apr 28, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how well a combination of three drugs (capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab) works as a first treatment for elderly patients (70 years or older) with metastatic colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see how long the cancer stays under control. The study involves 121 participants and is observational, meaning it follows real-world practice without assigning treatments.
