TS at first assessment was specified as ETS. DpR was defined as the maximum percentage change from baseline of the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions. DTS was defined as the time from first TS to first increase in tumor size, progressive disease, or death.In the FTD/TPI + bevacizumab group, 48 $\%$ had TS and 39 $\%$ had ETS. In the FTD/TPI group, 21 $\%$ had TS and 17 $\%$ had ETS. In patients achieving ETS, median DTS was prolonged with FTD/TPI + bevacizumab compared to FTD/TPI (3.8 versus 2.1 months; HR: 0.34 [95 $\%$ CI: 0.22, 0.53]; P < 0.0001). Magnitude of DpR was greater with FTD/TPI + bevacizumab than with FTD/TPI.The survival benefit of treatment with FTD/TPI + bevacizumab versus FTD/TPI is likely associated with the improvement of ETS and DpR.}, keywords = {Bevacizumab (Other) / Colorectal cancer (Other) / Depth of response (Other) / Response parameters (Other) / Trifluridine/tipiracil (Other)}, cin = {BE01}, ddc = {610}, cid = {I:(DE-He78)BE01-20160331}, pnm = {899 - ohne Topic (POF4-899)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF4-899}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, pubmed = {pmid:40694985}, doi = {10.1016/j.ejca.2025.115644}, url = {https://inrepo02.dkfz.de/record/303095}, }
