The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted full approval for encorafenib in combination with cetuximab and fluorouracil-based chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for BRAF V600E–mutant metastatic colorectal cancer. The approval is supported by Phase 3 data demonstrating improved overall and progression-free survival compared with standard chemotherapy, marking a regulatory milestone for this high-risk molecular subgroup.
