As a result of the little benefit obtained from standard treatments and the poor prognosis of these patients, the BRAF-V600E mutant MSS aCRC represents an unmet medical need requiring clinical research. The combination of encorafenib, cetuximab and binimetinib as second- or third-line treatment for mCRC resulted in significantly better outcomes than standard therapy in a phase 3 clinical trial, which also revealed treatment safety and tolerability to be acceptable. Compared to the control group (cetuximab and irinotecan or cetuximab and FOLFIRI), the triplet therapy cohort showed higher median overall survival (9.3 vs. 5.9 months) and response rates (26.8% vs. 1.8%). Grade 3 adverse events occurred in 65.8% and 64.2% of patients for triple-therapy and control groups, respectively. Based on these results, the investigators speculated that the combination of encorafenib, cetuximab and binimetinib could be used as induction therapy to improve treatment outcomes in BRAF-V600E-mutated MSS aCRC locally advanced initially unresectable but potentially resectable; initially resectable or initially unresectable but potentially resectable oligometastatic disease; and in patients with stage II-IV who have relapsed after chemotherapy (neo and/or adjuvant) or surgery, if the shorter time after resection or from treatment end to relapse is longer than 6 months.
