Encorafenib and Cetuximab in Patients With Metastatic, BRAFV600E-mutated Colorectal Carcinoma A Multi-center, Multi-national, Prospective, Longitudinal, Non-interventional Study in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying metastatic colorectal carcinoma mCRC patients who have a specific BRAFV600E mutation, which is linked to poorer outcomes compared to those without it. This mutation leads to shorter survival times after initial treatments, prompting the need for new therapy combinations. This research aims to observe how the drugs encorafenib and cetuximab work together in real-world settings for patients who have already received prior systemic therapies. This non-interventional, prospective, longitudinal study focuses on patients treated with encorafenib plus cetuximab following prior systemic therapy. The study collects data on treatment effectiveness, safety, and quality of life among a broader patient population in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Patients may have started treatment up to three months before joining the study or plan to start soon, and the study observes their outcomes without influencing treatment decisions. Participants will be monitored through data collection on their disease and treatment profiles, including patient and physician assessments, adverse events, and treatment details. The main outcome measured is overall survival at 12 months after starting treatment. Additional information gathered includes treatment duration, dose intensity, interruptions, and patient-reported quality of life using questionnaires. Safety and tolerability are also evaluated throughout treatment, with follow-up averaging nine months.
