This webinar focuses on 3L treatments in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) to extend the continuum of care, as well as the impact of pronostic factors on OS and PFS. FTD/TPI and regorafenib, the current approved 3L options in Europe and Latin America, add treatment lines and increase overall survival. FTD/TPI, in particular, has a manageable toxicity profile and extends patients' continuum of care. An interactive clinical patient case is presented throughout the webinar to underline the contribution of FTD/TPI as 3L treatment.
