New drug A140 challenges standard treatment for colorectal cancer
NCT ID NCT04835142
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a new drug called A140 works as well as the standard drug Erbitux for people with a certain type of advanced colorectal cancer (RAS wild-type). Both drugs were given together with chemotherapy. The trial involved 688 adults and measured how many patients' tumors shrank after 12 weeks of treatment. The goal was to see if A140 could be a similar, possibly more affordable, option for controlling the disease.
