2. Age =18 years
3. Patient must be able to comply with the protocol.
4. Histologically or cytologically confirmed carcinoma of the colon and/or rectum with evidence of metastases (new confirmation of metastatic disease is required in case the time interval from last histological/cytological diagnosis to enrolment exceeds 3 years).
5. Diagnosis of metastatic disease for which treatment will have to be started not more than 3 months prior to enrolment.
6. Life Expectancy of at least 3 months.
7. At least one measurable metastatic lesion (as per RECIST criteria)
8. Prior adjuvant or neo-adjuvant chemotherapy/radiotherapy allowed if completed more than 6 months before inclusion.
9. ECOG performance score of 0 or 1
10. Adequate haematological function: ANC =1.5 x 10(9)/L; platelets = 100 x 10(9)/L, Hb =9 g/dL
11. INR = 1.5; aPTT = 1.5 x ULN within 7 days prior to starting study treatment
12. Adequate liver function: Serum bilirubin = 1.5 x ULN; alkaline phosphatase and transaminases = 2.5 x ULN (in case of liver metastases < 5 x ULN)
13. Serum Creatinine = 1.5 x ULN
14. Urine dipstick for proteinuria < 2+. If urine dipstick is = 2+, 24- hour urine must demonstrate = 1 g of protein in 24 hours.
15. Negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days of starting study treatment in pre-menopausal women and women < 2 years after the onset of menopause. This test has to be reconfirmed by a urine test, should the 7 days window be exceeded.
Fertile women and men of childbearing potential (<2 years after last menstruation in women) must use effective means of contraception (oral contraceptives, intrauterine contraceptive device, barrier method of contraception in conjunction with spermicidal jelly or surgically sterile).

9. Current or recent (within 10 days prior to study treatment start) use of full-dose oral or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agent for therapeutic (as opposed to prophylactic) purposes.
10. History of thromboembolic or haemorrhagic events within 6 months prior to treatment.
11. Evidence of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy.
12. Serious, non healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
13. Major surgical procedure, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to treatment, or anticipation of the need for major surgery during the course of the study. CVAD for chemotherapy administration inserted within 2 days prior to study treatment start.
14. Evidence of any other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding or laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of an investigational drug or puts the patient at high risk for treatment-related complications.

Primary Outcome(s)
Main Objective: To determine the efficacy of bevacizumab in combination with irinotecan and infusional 5-fluorouracil plus folinic acid based regimens as compared with historical controls, based on progression free survival.
