AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Key Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients must have a site of disease amenable to biopsy, and be a candidate for tumor biopsy according to the treating institution's guidelines. Patients must be willing to undergo a new tumor biopsy at baseline and during on study therapy. Exceptions may be considered after documented discussion with Novartis.
* All patients must have a BRAF V600 mutation confirmed by local assessment.
* Patients with unresectable advanced/metastatic BRAF V600 cancer of the colon or rectum with measurable disease as determined by RECIST v1.1
* Patients must have documented disease progression following, or are intolerant to, 1 or 2 lines of chemotherapy for advanced/metastatic disease
Key Exclusion Criteria:
* Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or requires active treatment. Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has undergone potentially curative therapy, or in-situ cervical cancer, or other tumors that will not affect life expectancy
* Impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may signficantly alter the absorption of study drugs
* History of or current evidence/risk of retinal verin occlusion or serous retinopathy
* History of or current interstitial lung disease or non-infectious pneumonitis
* Patients with a known history of testing positive for HIV
* Clinically significant cardiac disease at screening
* Any medical condition that would, in the investigat…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
