Inclusion Criteria: * Histological confirmation of adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum * Tumor tissue sample available for KRAS and BRAF assessment * Measurable metastatic Stage IV disease including at least one measurable lesion that has not previously been radiated * No prior chemotherapy for metastatic CRC * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 0 or 1 * Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks * Adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function; adequate clotting parameters Exclusion Criteria: * Prior treatment with sorafenib * Clinical or radiographic evidence of brain metastasis * Major surgery, surgical biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 28 days of randomization; evidence or history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy * Red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC), or platelet transfusions and/or growth factor use within 28 days before randomization * Adjuvant therapy for CRC (Stage I, II, or III) completed within 12 months before randomization * Serious, non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture; Grade 3 or 4 hemorrhage within 28 days before randomization * Use of anticoagulation therapy (low dose anticoagulation therapy to mitigate risk of thrombosis due to placement of a semi-permanent central venous port for administration of chemotherapy is allowed.
