NCT ID NCT07318389
First seen Jan 09, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This early-phase trial tests whether matching drug combinations to a patient's tumor characteristics can better control metastatic colorectal cancer. Researchers will use blood draws, biopsies, and imaging to track how tumors resist treatment. The study enrolls 100 adults with measurable tumors and aims to check safety first.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Combination of standard chemotherapy (FOLFIRI, FOLFOX) and targeted drugs (bevacizumab, cetuximab, panitumumab, encorafenib, adagrasib, trifluridine/tipiracil, trastuzumab deruxtecan, tucatinib, sotorasib) chosen based on tumor genetics
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward more effective, personalized treatment plans for metastatic colorectal cancer by overcoming drug resistance.
What could go wrong
This is a very early (Phase 1) trial with only 100 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The main goal is safety, not yet proof of effectiveness. Side effects from multiple drug combinations are possible.
Conditions
