Inclusion Criteria:



- Histologically or cytologically confirmed colorectal carcinoma

- Patients must have received at least one oxaliplatin-contained chemotherapy before

CT scan

- Age ≥ 18 year, ECOG performance status 0, 1, 2, 3

- White blood cell (WBC) ≥ 3,000/mm3, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3,
platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3 and hemoglobin ≥ 8 mg / dl

- Serum creatinine level 2.0 mg/dL or lower

- Serum bilirubin less than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal range (ULN)

- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) less than 2.5

immunotherapy, or biologic systemic (including any target therapy)
