Brief Summary:

The purpose of this study is to evaluate two study medicines (encorafenib plus cetuximab) taken alone or together with standard chemotherapy for the potential treatment of colorectal cancer that:

  • has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic);
  • has a certain type of abnormal gene called "BRAF"; and
  • has not received prior treatment.

Participants in this study will receive one of the following study treatments:

  • Encorafenib plus cetuximab: These participants will receive encorafenib by mouth at home every day and cetuximab once every two weeks by intravenous (IV) infusion (an injection into the vein) at the study clinic.
  • Encorafenib plus cetuximab with chemotherapy: These participants will receive encorafenib and cetuximab in the way described in the bullet above. Additionally, they will receive standard chemotherapy by IV infusion and oral treatment at home.
  • Chemotherapy alone: These participants will receive chemotherapy, the standard treatment for this condition, by IV infusion at the study clinics and oral treatment at home.

This study is currently enrolling participants who will receive either encorafenib plus cetuximab with chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone.

The study team will monitor how each participant responds to the study treatment for up to about 3 years.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Neoplasms Drug: Encorafenib Drug: Cetuximab Drug: Oxaliplatin Drug: Irinotecan Drug: Leucovorin Drug: 5-FU Drug: Capecitabine Drug: Bevacizumab Phase 3

Detailed Description:
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether encorafenib plus cetuximab (EC), alone or in combination with chemotherapy, can improve clinical outcomes relative to current standard of-care chemotherapy in participants with previously untreated BRAF V600E-mutant mCRC. Since encorafenib has not previously been combined with chemotherapy, the tolerability and PK of EC in combination with mFOLFOX6 and in combination with FOLFIRI will be evaluated in separate cohorts in the safety lead-in portion of the trial in order to identify which chemotherapy combination is to be used in the Phase 3 portion of the study.

    EORTC QLQ-C30: included functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), global health status, symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea/vomiting) and single items (dyspnoea, appetite loss, insomnia, constipation/diarrhea and financial difficulties). Most questions used 4 point scale (1 'Not at all' to 4 'Very much'; 2 questions used 7-point scale (1 'very poor' to 7 'Excellent'). Scores averaged, transformed to 0-100 scale; higher score=better level of functioning or greater degree of symptoms.

  39. Cohort 3: Change from Baseline in the EuroQol-5D-5L (EQ-5D-5L) Questionnaire [ Time Frame: Duration of Cohort 3, approximately 21 months ]
    The EQ-5D-5L is a standardized measure of health utility that provides a single index value for the participant's health status. It is frequently used for economic evaluations of health care and has been shown to be a valid and reliable instrument, and comprises a short descriptive system questionnaire and a visual analogue scale (EQ VAS) that are cognitively undemanding, taking about 2 minutes to complete

  40. Cohort 3: Change from Baseline in the Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGIS) [ Time Frame: Duration of Cohort 3, approximately 21 months ]
    The PGIS is a single-item questionnaire designed to assess participant's overall impression of disease severity at a given point in time.

  41. Cohort 3: Change from Baseline in the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) questionnaires [ Time Frame: Duration of Cohort 3, approximately 21 months ]
    The PGIC is a single-item questionnaire designed to assess the participant's overall sense of whether there has been a change in symptoms or quality of life since starting treatment.

  42. Cohort 3: Confirm the MSI-status in tumor tissue [ Time Frame: Once, pre-treatment ]
    Summarize MSI-status as determined by retrospective central testing of baseline tumor tissue

  43. Cohort 3: Determine the correlation between cfDNA genetic alterations and clinical outcome [ Time Frame: Predose on Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 1 Day 15, Cycle 2 Day 15, Cycle 7 Day 1 and End of Treatment (Duration of Cohort 3, approximately 21 months). Each cycle is 28 days. ]
    BRAF V600E variant allele fraction (VAF) and/or overall mean VAF from cfDNA analysis of plasma samples collected at baseline and on treatment

  44. Cohort 3: Trough concentrations of encorafenib and its metabolite LHY746 [ Time Frame: Predose on Cycle 1 through Cycle 6. Each cycle is 28 days ]
    Trough plasma concentrations in all patients in Arm D
