Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the activity of raltitrexed and ZD1839 versus raltitrexed alone as second line chemotherapy in subjects with colorectal carcinoma by estimating progression free survival (PFS) in each treatment arm.

* prior chemotherapeutic regimen for metastatic or locally advanced disease with an interval of at least 4 weeks between the last administration of chemotherapy an the first administration of study treatment
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2
* life expectancy of at least 12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria

* Known severe hypersensitivity to raltitrexed or any of the excipients of this product
* known severe hypersensitivity to raltitrexed or any of the excipients of this product
* active infection or uncontrolled diarrhoea
* cerebral metastasis or meningeal carcinomatosis
* any evidence of clinically active interstitial lung disease (patients with chronic stable radiographic changes who are asymptomatic need not be excluded)
* simultaneous antitumoral treatment
* radiotherapy within 2 weeks before entry into the study
* other co-existing malignancies or malignancies diagnosed within the last 5 years with the exception of basal cell carcinoma or cervical cancer in situ

* pregnancy or breast feeding (women of child-bearing potential)
* concomitant use of phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, barbiturates, or ST John's Wort;
* Treatment with a non- approved or investigational drug within 30 days before Day 1 of study treatment
