Exclusion Criteria:

• No measurable disease according to RECIST criteria.
• Prior anti-cancer therapy < 3 weeks before first dose. For cetuximab < 30 days or bevacizumab < 60 days prior to the first dose.
• Unresolved toxicity > CTC gr 1 from previous anti-cancer therapy (including radiotherapy) except for alopecia.
• Inadequate bone marrow function (Hb ≤ 5.6 mmol/L, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≤ 1.5 x 109/L, platelets ≤100 x 109/L)
• renal dysfunction (serum creatinine ≥ 1.5x ULN and glomerular filtration rate ≤ 50 ml/min)

• No major surgery < 4 weeks prior to study entry.
• No radiotherapy < 4 weeks prior to study entry except for palliative radiotherapy at focal sites.
• Any evidence of concurrent severe or uncontrolled disease (i.e. uncontrolled hypertension, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction < 6 months, chronic active infection, poorly regulated diabetes mellitus)
• Any previous significant cardiovascular event during previous fluoropyrimidine therapy (i.e.

myocardial ischemia or infarction, arterial thrombosis, pulmonary emboli)

• History of impairment of gastrointestinal function or -disease that may significantly impair the absorption of oral drugs (i.e. uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, malabsorption syndrome, bowel obstruction, or inability to swallow tablets)
• Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial
