Targeted therapy for BRAF V600E mutated colorectal cancer
This trial tests if combining three targeted drugs (cetuximab, encorafenib, and binimetinib) before surgery can shrink or control cancer in people with a specific BRAF V600E mutation and a stable (MSS) tumor. It focuses on colorectal cancer that is either already able to be removed or could become removable with treatment.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06225843RecruitingPhase 2

Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06311214RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized ADC therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests personalized antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for advanced solid tumors. It looks for specific proteins on your tumor cells to match you with a treatment that targets them directly.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06320405RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—axatilimab, retifanlimab, and paclitaxel—for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth, and it is for people who have already tried taxane chemotherapy.
