U.S. FDA Approves FRUZAQLA™ (fruquintinib) for Previously Treated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

“There is a pressing need for new treatments for individuals with metastatic colorectal cancer, who have had limited options and continue to face poor outcomes. FRUZAQLA is the first novel chemotherapy-free treatment option approved for patients in the U.S. regardless of biomarker status in more than a decade,” said Teresa Bitetti, president of the Global Oncology Business Unit at Takeda. “For far too long, healthcare providers and patients have had limited options when selecting a therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer. FRUZAQLA has the potential to offer a significant survival benefit to patients without negatively impacting their quality of life.”
