Colorectal Cancer Metastatic

Brief summary

Phase II randomized trial to investigate whether supplementation of zinc decreases the incidence of HFSR that occurs after treatment of tyrosine kinase inhibitor, regorafenib.

Detailed description

This study is aimed to investigate the effect of zinc supplementation on improving regorafenib treatment safety and efficacy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The difference in grade 2 or worse hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR) incidence within the first 8 weeks of regorafenib treatment between two arms will be examined as the primary objective.
