Summary

This trial is testing the safety and tolerability of different combinations of drugs in order to find the best doses and regimens for future studies.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced/metastatic BRAF V600 colorectal cancer who've had disease progression after 1-2 chemotherapy lines or are intolerant to them. Participants must be willing to undergo tumor biopsies and have a confirmed BRAF V600 mutation. Excluded are those with significant heart issues, gastrointestinal conditions affecting drug absorption, certain eye diseases, HIV, other active cancers (with exceptions), lung diseases, or pregnant/breastfeeding women.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing combinations of drugs LXH254, Dabrafenib, Spartalizumab, Tislelizumab, TNO155, Trametinib and LTT462 in adults with specific colorectal cancer. It's an early-phase study aiming to find out the safest doses for future research by monitoring participants' reactions.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions seen with cancer treatments such as nausea, fatigue, skin changes and increased risk of infections. Specific side effects will depend on the drug combination received but can also involve risks related to immune system responses or organ inflammation.
