5. Must have received at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen for metastatic or recurrent CRC
6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1
7. Measurable disease per RECIST v1.1 (Eisenhauer et al., 2009)
8. Able to provide archival or fresh tumor tissue during screening (required) and post-treatment (optional)
9. Adequate renal function defined as creatinine clearance ≥ 60mL/min
10. Adequate liver function
11. Adequate hematologic function
12. No growth factor support, transfusions, or albumin administration within 14 days of first dose of study treatment
13. Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures
14. Male and female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly medically effective method of contraception and refrain from sperm/egg donation throughout the study starting with the first dose of study treatment (or 14 days prior to the first dose of study treatment for oral contraception) and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study treatment

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the study drugs or their excipients.

2. In Part 2, Cohort A, active liver metastases by computed topography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

3. Treatment with one of the following classes of drugs within the delineated time window prior to first dose:

   1. Small molecule/tyrosine kinase inhibitors within 2 weeks
   2. Any other systemic therapy for CRC within 3 weeks
   3. Received another investigational drug within 30 days or active participation in another clinical trial (follow-up is permitted)
   4. Medications/products which are known strong inhibitors or inducers of the CYP enzymes within 5 x T1/2

4. Received programmed cell death protein 1, PD-(L)1, or CTLA-4 therapies including any immune checkpoint inhibitor or experimental immunologic agents.

5. Partial or complete bowel obstruction within the last 3 months, signs/symptoms of bowel obstruction, or known radiologic evidence of impending obstruction.

6. Refractory ascites.

7. Current evidence of interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis, or prior history of ILD or non-infectious pneumonitis requiring glucocorticoids.

8. Continuous systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (>10 mg daily prednisone equivalents) or other immunosuppressive medications within 28 days prior to Day 1.

9. Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years

10. Patients with adrenal / pituitary insufficiency

11. History of documented congestive heart failure; unstable angina; poorly controlled hypertension; clinically significant valvular heart disease; high-risk uncontrolled arrhythmias (including sustained ventricular tachycardia); myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cerebrovascular accident, or transient ischemic attack within the last 6 months, or Canadian Cardiovascular Society angina class > 2

12. History of allogeneic organ transplant, stem cell transplant, or bone marrow transplant

13. Previous SARS-CoV-2 infection within 10 days for mild or asymptomatic infections or 20 days for severe/critical illness prior to first dose

14. Requirement for treatment with strong cytochrome P450 3A4 inducers or inhibitors

15. Presence of gastrointestinal condition, for example, malabsorption, that might affect the absorption of Investigational Product(s).

16. Troponin I > ULN

17. Uncontrolled hypertension

18. Corrected QT interval by Fridericia (QTcF) ≥ 470 ms per the central mean average of triplicate electrocardiograms (ECGs)

19. Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) < 50% using echocardiogram or multigated acquisition (MUGA)

20. Symptomatic uncontrolled central nervous system (CNS) disease requiring treatment with steroids or anti-seizure medications within 2 months prior to Day 1. However, subjects with brain metastases that have been previously treated and are stable based on imaging performed within 2 months of Day 1 following completion of any CNS-directed therapy are allowed

21. Leptomeningeal disease

22. Spinal cord compression not definitively treated with surgery and/or radiation

23. Bleeding diathesis due to underlying medical condition or anticoagulation medication which is unable to be promptly reversed by medical treatment

24. Prior additional malignancy that is progressing or has received treatment the previous 3 years prior to first dose except for locally curable cancers that have been apparently cured, such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the prostate, cervix, or breast

25. History of uncontrolled seizures, central nervous disorders, substance abuse disorder or psychiatric disability judged by the Investigator to be clinically significant and would interfere with cooperation with requirements of the study

26. Active infection requiring systemic treatment at time of first dose
