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 and older) with metastatic colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see how long the cancer stays under control. 121 patients took part, and the study is now complete but results are still being analyzed.
