Targeted pill combination for BRAF-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer
This study tests a combination of two targeted pills (tunlametinib and vemurafenib) for people with metastatic colorectal cancer that has a specific gene change (BRAF V600E) and whose cancer has grown after at least one prior treatment. The goal is to see if this drug combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,871 recruiting metastatic cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a metastatic cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a metastatic cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
