Dr Cathy Eng discusses a study into trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab (FTD/TPI + BEV) and trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) monotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer.

The primary outcome was that the meta-analysis study suggested that FTD/TPI + BEV provides benefits over FTD/TPI in patients with refractory mCRC and has a similar safety profile, but it is associated with a higher rate of grade ≥3 neutropenia.

Dr Eng concludes the by discussing the significance of the study findings
