Summary
Researchers are looking for other ways to treat locally advanced or metastatic colorecal cancer (mCRC) that is unable to be removed through surgery (unresectable) and has a gene mutation called KRAS G12C.
Standard (or usual) treatments for this type of colorectal cancer may include mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab targeted therapy. Researchers want to learn if adding MK-1084 (the study medicine) and cetuximab to mFOLFOX6 can treat locally advanced or mCRC with the KRAS G12C mutation. MK-1084 and cetuximab are targeted therapies.
The goals of this study are to learn:
- About the safety of MK-1084 with cetuximab and mFOLFOX6 and if people tolerate the treatments
- If people who receive MK-1084 with cetuximab and mFOLFOX6 livelonger without mCRC growing or spreading compared to people who receive mFOLFOX6 with or without bevacizumab.
The study has two parts, and those participating in part 2 must not have received prior systemic anticancer therapy for their locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic disease.
