Utilization of fluoropyrimidine-based treatment in patients with metastatic colorectal malignant growth is related with huge poison levels. This investigation expected to survey the wellbeing and adequacy of raltitrexed use in patients with metastatic colorectal malignancy who created huge poison levels after fluoropyrimidine-based treatment. We distinguished patients with metastatic colorectal malignant growth who were treated with raltitrexed-based fundamental treatment in the wake of creating genuine antagonistic occasions with fluoropyrimidine-based treatment in a huge Canadian territory from 2004 to 2018. Segment, tumor, and therapy qualities were recovered from the electronic clinical records. Movement free and in general endurance were surveyed from the beginning of raltitrexed-based treatment. An aggregate of 86 patients were recognized for the examination. The middle age was 66.5 years, and 58.1% of patients were men. The essential disease site was correct, left, and cross over colon in 38.4%, 27.9%, and 9.3%, individually. The excess 24.4% had rectal malignancy. Among all patients, 43.0% had gotten more than 2 earlier fundamental treatments, and 37.6% had created past cardiotoxicity to fluoropyrimidine-based treatment. The middle movement free and by and large endurance were 8.5 and 10.2 months, separately. On the multivariable Cox relapse model, patients with left-sided colon disease.
