Current thesis
The investment case rests on positive but early CRDF-004 efficacy, FDA-aligned Phase 3 planning, and potential confirmation in first-line RAS-mutated mCRC. The reported ORR differential and unreached median PFS could support rerating if reproduced in a registrational study [#PR-EARNINGS-2026-06-02] [#SEC-8K-2026-05-14].
