The armamentarium in CRC is expanding; moreover, agents across multiple lines of therapy are becoming available for patients and, overall, improving their survival, Bekaii-Saab explains. It is very important to understand sequencing of therapies, he adds. This is a major question currently among the CRC community.
In the second-line setting, there are 2 agents available: regorafenib (Stivarga) and TAS-102. The optimal sequence of these agents in the second-line setting is still unknown, he adds.
