Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - FOLFIRI
Treatment: Drugs - E7820
Treatment: Drugs - Bevacizumab

Active Comparator: FOLFIRI - The FOLFIRI regimen consists of irinotecan at 180 mg/m2 (IV infusion) on Day 1 and Day 15 of each 28-day cycle, leucovorin at 200 mg/m2 (400 mg/m2 if using d,l-racemic mixture of leucovorin) by IV infusion on Days 1 and 15 of each cycle, and 5-FU at 400 mg/m2 as an IV bolus injection followed by a total of 2400 mg/m2 by CIV infusion over 46 hours over Days 1 and 2 via an ambulatory programmable pump (the use of an ambulatory pump is optional). The 5-FU IV bolus (400 mg/m2) and CIV infusion (2400 mg/m2) over 46 hours is repeated on Days 15 and 16 of each cycle.

Experimental: E7820 - E7820 is administered orally in tablet form once daily, every day of each 28-day treatment cycle. For the Phase Ib portion, the doses will be 40 mg/day, 70 mg/day, and 100 mg/day, and for the Phase II portion, the dose will be the MTD recommended Phase IB dose in combination with FOLFIRI, as determined during the Phase Ib portion of the study.

Experimental: FOLFIRI plus Bevacizumab - Bevacizumab at 5 mg/kg (IV infusion) on Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day treatment cycle


Treatment: Drugs: FOLFIRI
FOLFIRI will be administered as IV infusion on Days 1 and 15 of each cycle, and 5-FU at 400 mg/m^2 as an IV bolus injection followed by a total of 2400 mg/m2 by CIV infusion over 46 hours over Days 1 and 2 via an ambulatory programmable pump. The 5-FU IV bolus (400 mg/m^2) and CIV infusion (2400 mg/m^2) over 46 hours is repeated on Days 15 and 16 of each cycle.

Treatment: Drugs: E7820
E7820 will be administered orally in tablet form once daily, every day of each 28-day treatment cycle.

Treatment: Drugs: Bevacizumab
Bevacizumab will be administered at 5 mg/kg (IV infusion) on Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day treatment cycle.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Patients may be entered in the study only if they meet all of the following criteria:

1. Male or female patient greater than or equal to 18 years of age;

2. Histologically or cytologically confirmed nonresectable locally advanced or metastatic
colorectal adenocarcinoma;

3. Patients must have failed a first-line chemotherapy regimen for nonresectable locally
advanced or mCRC (first-line bevacizumab is allowed). Patients randomized to the Phase
Ib portion can have up to 3 total prior regimens (including adjuvant therapy in
addition to treatment for advanced disease);

4. At least 1 site of measurable disease by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid
Tumors (RECIST version 1.1) criteria;

5. Life expectancy of > 3 months;

6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) 0 or 1;

7. Patients must have adequate renal function as evidenced by serum creatinine <2 mg/dL
and creatinine clearance >50 mL/minute per the Cockcroft and Gault formula;

8. Patients must have adequate bone marrow function as evidenced by absolute neutrophil
count (ANC) >1.5 x 109/L, platelets >100 x 109/L, hemoglobin >9.0 g/dL (a hemoglobin
<9.0 g/dL at Screening is acceptable if it is corrected to >9 g/dL by growth factor or
transfusion prior to first dose);

9. Patients must have adequate liver function as evidenced by bilirubin <1.5 times the
upper limit of the normal range (ULN), and alkaline phosphatase, alanine
aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) <3 X ULN (in the case of
liver metastases, <5 X ULN). If there are bone metastases, liver-specific alkaline
phosphatase may be separated from the total and used to assess liver function instead
of total alkaline phosphatase;

10. Blood pressure must be well-controlled (<140/90 mmHg at screening) with or without
antihypertensive medication. Patients must have no history of hypertensive crisis or
hypertensive encephalopathy;

11. Male or female patients of child-producing potential must agree to use double barrier
