First Patient Dosed in Randomized First-line RAS-mutated mCRC Trial (CRDF-004)
“Today’s announcement represents an important milestone for Cardiff Oncology and for patients with RAS-mutated mCRC, who have had no new therapies approved in almost 20 years,” said Fairooz Kabbinavar, MD, FACP, Chief Medical Officer of Cardiff Oncology. “Based on the encouraging results from our Phase 1b/2 trial in second-line KRAS-mutated mCRC and our preclinical data demonstrating the powerful impact of combining onvansertib and bevacizumab, we believe the addition of onvansertib in the first-line setting has the potential to provide a meaningful improvement to the efficacy of SoC for mCRC patients with a RAS-mutation. We are especially pleased with the opportunity to leverage Pfizer Ignite’s execution capabilities to advance the development of onvansertib. We strongly believe that we are on the cusp of a transformative advance in the treatment landscape for mCRC.”
