Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients prescribed 5-FU/Capecitabine as part of their standard of care treatment will provide an additional 2 blood samples and a single dried blood spot for therapeutic drug monitoring.

Samples will be collected by either doctor, research nurse or pathology collector. The first sample is collected at the patient's screening visit with other routine blood samples. The second sample will be collected additionally during the patient's treatment and will require 10 minutes for collection.

Levels of drug will be provided back to clinician and dose of 5-FU/Capecitabine may change based on individual clinicians clinical judgement.

The level of drug in blood sample will be correlated with level of drug in dried blood spot for feasibility of using dried blood spot and/or whole blood samples for ongoing therapeutic drug monitoring of 5-FU/Capecitabine.

The change (is applicable) and outcome will be collected.

Type of endpoint/s
Pharmacokinetics
Statistical methods / analysis
This is a non-interventional non-comparative clinical study. Demographic and clinical data will require simple statistical comparison of the 5-FU pk parameters (AUC) and toxicity. Univariate and multivariate analysis using logistic regression to identify potential predictive factors for toxicity (age, gender, ECOG PS, creatinine, other standard blood parameters, 5-FU dose, and 5-FU pk, uracil and DPD parameters) will be undertaken
