ctDNA-Guided Cetuximab or Bevacizumab Plus Trifluridine/Tipiracil in RAS/BRAF Wild-Type mCRC
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
The objective of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of ctDNA-guided rechallenge with cetuximab plus trifluridine/tipiracil compared with bevacizumab plus trifluridine/tipiracil in patients with treatment-refractory, RAS/BRAF wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer.
