- Must be ≥ 18 years of age.
- For male or female patient of child bearing potential: Must agree to use contraception or take measures to avoid pregnancy during the study and for 180 days for female and male patients, of the final FOLFIRI dose. Patients who receive single agent napabucasin without FOLFIRI must agree to use contraception or take measures to avoid pregnancy during the study and for 30 days for female patients and 90 days for male patients, of the final napabucasin dose.
- Women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 5 days prior to randomization. The minimum sensitivity of the pregnancy test must be 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG.
- Must have alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 3 × institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) [≤ 5 × ULN in presence of liver metastases] within 14 days prior to randomization.
- Must have hemoglobin (Hgb) ≥ 9.0 g/dL within 14 days prior to randomization. Must not have required transfusion of red blood cells within 1 week of baseline Hgb assessment.
- Must have total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × institutional ULN [≤ 2.0 x ULN in presence of liver metastases] within 14 days prior to randomization.
- Must have creatinine ≤ 1.5 × institutional ULN or Creatinine Clearance > 50 ml/min (as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI]) within 14 days prior to randomization.
- Must have absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 10^9/L within 14 days prior to randomization.
- Must have platelet count ≥ 100 x 10^9/L within 14 days prior to randomization. Must not have required transfusion of platelets within 1 week of baseline platelet assessment.
- Patient must have adequate nutritional status with Body Mass Index (BMI) > 18 kg/m^2 and body weight of > 40 kg with serum albumin > 3 g/dL.
- Other baseline laboratory evaluations, listed in Section 6.0, must be done within 14 days prior to randomization.
- Patient must consent to provision of, and Investigator(s) must confirm access to and agree to submit a representative formalin fixed paraffin block of tumor tissue in order that the specific biomarker assays may be conducted. Submission of the tissue is to occur prior to randomization, unless approved by the Sponsor. Where local center regulations prohibit submission of blocks of tumor tissue, two 2 mm cores of tumor from the block and 10-30 unstained slides of whole sections of representative tumor tissue are preferred. Where two 2 mm cores of tumor from the block are unavailable, 10-30 unstained slides of whole sections of representative tumor tissue alone are acceptable. Where no previously resected or biopsied tumor tissue exists or is available, on the approval of the Sponsor/designated CRO, the patient may still be considered eligible for the study.
- Patient must consent to provision of a sample of blood in order that the specific correlative marker assays may be conducted.
- Patients must be accessible for treatment and follow-up. Patients registered on this trial must receive protocol treatment and be followed at the participating center. This implies there must be reasonable geographical limits placed on patients being considered for this trial. Investigators must ensure that the patients randomized on this trial will be available for complete documentation of the treatment, response assessment, adverse events, and follow-up.
- Protocol treatment is to begin within 2 calendar days of patient randomization.
- The patient is not receiving therapy in a concurrent clinical study and the patient agrees not to participate in other interventional clinical studies during their participation in this trial while on study treatment. Patients participating in surveys or observational studies are eligible to participate in this study.
Who cannot join
- Anti-cancer chemotherapy or biologic therapy if administered prior to the first planned dose of study medication (napabucasin or FOLFIRI) within period of time equivalent to the usual cycle length of the regimen. An exception is made for oral fluoropyrimidines (e.g. capecitabine, S-1), where a minimum of 10 days since last dose must be observed prior to the first planned dose of study medication. Standard dose of bevacizumab (5 mg/kg) may be administered prior to FOLFIRI infusion, per Investigator decision, for as long as permanent decision to include or exclude bevacizumab is made prior to patient randomization. Radiotherapy, immunotherapy (including immunotherapy administered for non-malignant diseaseneoplastic treatment purposes), or investigational agents within four weeks of first planned dose of study medication, with the exception of a single dose of radiation up to 8 Gy (equal to 800 RAD) with palliative intent for pain control up to 14 days before randomization.
- More than one prior chemotherapy regimen administered in the metastatic setting.
- Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to randomization.
- Patients with any known brain or leptomeningeal metastases are excluded, even if treated.
- Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Women should not breastfeed while taking study treatment and for 4 weeks after the last dose of napabucasin or while undergoing treatment with FOLFIRI and for 180 days after the last dose of FOLFIRI.
- Gastrointestinal disorder(s) which, in the opinion of the Qualified/Principal Investigator, would significantly impede the absorption of an oral agent (e.g. intestinal occlusion, active Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, extensive gastric and small intestine resection).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall Survival (OS)
Overall survival was defined as the time from randomization until death from any cause.
Patients who are alive at the time of the interim or the final analyses or who have become lost to follow-up will be censored on the date the patient was last known to be alive.
Measured: Randomization to Date of Death from any cause or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months)
Secondary outcomes (6)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first objective documentation of disease progression per RECIST 1.1 (PD) or death, whichever comes first.
Measured: Randomization to Date of Death or until the date of first documented objective disease progression or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months)
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR is defined as the percentage of patients with a documented complete response, partial response, and stable disease (CR + PR + SD) based on RECIST 1.1. The primary estimate of DCR will be based on patients with measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 at randomization
Measured: Randomization to Date of Death or until the date of first documented objective disease progression or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR is defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response and partial response (CR + PR) based on RECIST 1.1. The primary estimate for ORR will be based on patients with measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 at randomization.
Measured: Randomization to Date of Death or until the date of first documented objective disease progression or database cutoff date (28 Apr 2020) (Approximately 43 months)
Mean Change From Baseline for Global Health Status at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1) and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1).
The Quality of Life (QoL) of patients will be assessed using European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) (EORTC QLQ-30) while the patient remains on study treatment (FOLFIRI with or without BBI-608). EORTC QLQ-30 is used to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients using 28 questions with a 4 point scale. (1 'Not at all' to 4'Very Much'); 2 questions use a 7-point sale (1 'Very Poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores are averaged and transformed to 0-100 scale; higher overall score = better quality of life.
Measured: From baseline at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1), approximately 57 days and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1), approximately 113 days
Mean Change From Baseline for Physical Functioning Status at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1) and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1).
The Quality of Life (QoL) of patients will be assessed using European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) (EORTC QLQ-30) while the patient remains on study treatment (FOLFIRI with or without BBI-608). EORTC QLQ-30 is used to assess the overall quality of life in cancer patients using 28 questions with a 4 point scale. (1 'Not at all' to 4'Very Much'); 2 questions use a 7-point sale (1 'Very Poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores are averaged and transformed to 0-100 scale; higher overall score = better quality of life.
Measured: From baseline at Time 2 (Cycle 5 Day 1) and Time 4 (Cycle 9 Day 1)
Number of Patients With Adverse Events in the General Population
All patients who have received at least one dose of either BBI-608 or FOLFIRI will be included in the safety analysis according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.0. The incidence of adverse events will be summarized by type of adverse event and severity.
Measured: All adverse event are collected from date of signed informed consent until 30 days after protocol treatment discontinuation. Outcome followed until study discontinuation up to 4 years

Key inclusion criteria (22 listed)
- Written, signed consent for trial participation must be obtained from the patient appropriately in accordance with applicable ICH guidelines and local and regulatory requirements prior to the performance of any study specific procedure.
- Must have histologically confirmed advanced CRC that is metastatic.
- Must have failed treatment with one regimen containing a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin with or without bevacizumab for metastatic disease. All patients must have received a minimum of 6 weeks of the first-line regimen that included bevacizumab (if applicable), oxaliplatin and a fluoropyrimidine in the same cycle. Treatment failure is defined as radiologic progression during or < 6 months after the last dose of first-line therapy.
- FOLFIRI therapy is appropriate for the patient and is recommended by the Investigator.
- Imaging investigations including CT/MRI of chest/abdomen/pelvis or other scans as necessary to document all sites of disease performed within 21 days prior to randomization. Patients with either measurable disease or non-measurable evaluable disease are eligible.
Key exclusion criteria (33 listed)
- Anti-cancer chemotherapy or biologic therapy if administered prior to the first planned dose of study medication (napabucasin or FOLFIRI) within period of time equivalent to the usual cycle length of the regimen. An exception is made for oral fluoropyrimidines (e.g. capecitabine, S-1), where a minimum of 10 days since last dose must be observed prior to the first planned dose of study medication. Standard dose of bevacizumab (5 mg/kg) may be administered prior to FOLFIRI infusion, per Investigator decision, for as long as permanent decision to include or exclude bevacizumab is made prior to patient randomization. Radiotherapy, immunotherapy (including immunotherapy administered for non-malignant diseaseneoplastic treatment purposes), or investigational agents within four weeks of first planned dose of study medication, with the exception of a single dose of radiation up to 8 Gy (equal to 800 RAD) with palliative intent for pain control up to 14 days before randomization.
- More than one prior chemotherapy regimen administered in the metastatic setting.
- Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to randomization.
- Patients with any known brain or leptomeningeal metastases are excluded, even if treated.
- Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Women should not breastfeed while taking study treatment and for 4 weeks after the last dose of napabucasin or while undergoing treatment with FOLFIRI and for 180 days after the last dose of FOLFIRI.
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening; this overview does not establish that a patient qualifies. Full inclusion and exclusion criteria.
