VO (narrator):
The smallest thing can mean so much when you’re living with metastatic colorectal cancer.
And FRUZAQLA could help you grab ahold of that life you want more of.
Because FRUZAQLA is an innovative targeted therapy.
It is not chemotherapy.
That helped people in the clinical study live longer than those given placebo.
And that is a convenient, once-daily pill.
FRUZAQLA® (fruquintinib) treats adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to other parts of the body who have previously received certain anti-cancer treatments.
FRUZAQLA may cause serious side effects including high blood pressure, protein in your urine, hand-foot skin reactions, and severe bleeding, infections, liver problems, gastrointestinal perforation, and blood clots in your blood vessels that may lead to death.
Common side effects include voice changes, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weakness and feeling very tired or sleepy.
FRUZAQLA may harm your unborn baby. Do not become pregnant while on treatment.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, especially blood thinners.

VO (Man with dog):
I’m claiming more of my life with FRUZAQLA.
Ask your doctor if it can help you claim more of yours.
