Abstract Text | Metastatic BRAFV600E mutated colorectal cancer is associated with poor overall survival and modest effectiveness to standard therapies. Furthermore, survival is influenced by the microsatellite status. Patients with microsatellite-stable and BRAFV600E mutated colorectal cancer have the worst prognosis under the wide range of genetic subgroups in colorectal cancer. Herein, we present a patient case of an impressive therapeutic efficacy of dabrafenib, trametinib, and cetuximab as later-line therapy in a 52-year-old woman with advanced BRAFV600E mutated, microsatellite-stable colon cancer. This patient achieved a complete response after 1 year of triple therapy. Due to skin toxicity grade 3 and recurrent urinary tract infections due to mucosal toxicity, a therapy de-escalation to dabrafenib and trametinib was performed, and the double therapy was administered for further 41 months with ongoing complete response. For 1 year, the patient was off therapy and is still in complete remission. |

BRAF V600E | colon adenocarcinoma | predicted - sensitive | Cetuximab + Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, the combination of Tafinlar (dabrafenib), Mekinist (trametinib), and Erbitux (cetuximab) resulted in a partial response after 2 months followed by a complete response in a patient with microsatellite-stable, metastatic colon adenocarcinoma harboring BRAF V600E, and the patient remained in complete remission 11 months after discontinuation of treatment (PMID: 37213293). | 37213293 |
