Brief Summary: Colorectal cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the large intestine colon or the rectum end of the colon Several drugs are often given in combination to treat colorectal cancer One of the most active treatment combinations is known as FOLFOX which is a combination of 5-fluorouracil 5-FU leucovorin and oxaliplatin Oxaliplatin is a type of platinum drug and was approved by the FDA in 2004 While generally well-tolerated oxaliplatin may cause toxicity to the nerves such as sensory loss or cold sensitivity

Picoplatin is a new type of platinum drug that has shown activity with 5-FU in pre-clinical studies and has undergone extensive Phase 1 and Phase 2 testing in a variety of cancers No significant nerve toxicity has been seen in previous studies of picoplatin

This study will review the safety and effectiveness of FOLPI which is the combination of 5-FU and leucovorin with picoplatin in participants with colorectal cancer
Detailed Description: Subjects will be randomized centrally to treatment with picoplatin administered either every two or every four weeks and will be assigned a dose of picoplatin dependent on the study results to date Each patient will also receive therapy every two weeks with 5-FU and leucovorin In each schedule the cohort size will be 3 subjects to be expanded to 6 subjects if a dose-limiting toxicity is observed If not dose-limiting toxicity observed among the 3 subjects within a cohort picoplatin dose escalation may proceed until the maximum tolerated dose is established
