Treatment for BRAFF V600E mutant colerectal cancer

Ginni6

I was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2022 which metastasised to my liver in 2024.

I have recently had a liver resection to remove a BRAFF V600E tumour. My followup scans showed seven new tumours in the remaining section of liver. 

I have previously had CAPOX following previous cancer surgery.   My oncologist is now proposing chemotherapy FOLFIRI paired with Braftovi Erbitux. I’d like to know if anyone has experienced this type of treatment. Many thanks  

  • Hi Ginni6,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. It sounds like you've been going through a lot, and I hope you're getting on as OK as can be at the moment.

    I wanted to send a reply to your post to give it a little boost, so a few more people should see it and hopefully you'll get more replies. From the homepage of the forum you can use the search bar at the top to find other relevant discussions and people to connect with, if you'd like to.

    We also have nurses available if you'd like to talk anything through with one of them. You can reach them on freephone 0808 800 4040 - Monday-Friday, 9-5.

    I hope that the forum can be useful for you - we're always here for support if you need it.
