Study of Intravenous Aflibercept in Combination With FOLFIRI in Japanese Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

The primary objective is to determine the dose of aflibercept to be further studied in combination with irinotecan/5-fluorouracil/isovorin (FOLFIRI) in Japanese patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

Secondary objectives of this study are to assess the safety profile of aflibercept, to determine the pharmacokinetics of aflibercept, to make a preliminary assessment of antitumor effects.
