Trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) and regorafenib in older patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer is a disease of older patients, but few guidelines directly address age in their recommendations. Older patients may present comorbidities that affect the choice of chemotherapy, and care must be taken when choosing the best approach. This narrative review aimed to describe the literature regarding approved oral agents for third-line treatment in older patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer, regorafenib, and trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI).
