columbia-1: novel oncology therapies in combination with chemotherapy and bevacizumab as first- line therapy in mss-crc

Conditions: Metastatic Microsatellite-stable Colorectal Cancer

Summary: columbia-1 is a phase 1b/2 platform study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of standard of care (folfox plus bevacizumab) alone and in combination with novel oncology therapies in first-line metastatic microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer (mss-crc).

columbia-1 is a phase 1b/2, open-label, multicenter, randomized, multidrug platform study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of standard of care (folfox plus bevacizumab) in combination with novel oncology therapies in patients with first-line metastatic mss-crc. the study is designed to concurrently evaluate potential novel combinations with clinical promise using a 2-part approach. part 1 is a phase 1b study of safety, and part 2 is a phase 2 study of efficacy and safety.
