* Signed informed consent form and expected cooperation of the patients for the treatment and follow-up must be obtained and documented according to International Conference on Harmonization - Good Clinical Practice and national/local regulations

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient has metastatic dMMR/MSI colorectal cancer.
* Patient has initially resectable metastatic disease for which neoadjuvant therapy is deemed superfluous.
* Patient has supradiaphragmatic metastatic disease as the sole site(s).
* Patient has untreated or symptomatic brain metastasis (patient must be symptom-free without the use of corticosteroids).
* Patient has experienced a period of less than 6 months since discontinuation of neoadjuvant or adjuvant oxaliplatincontaining chemotherapy.
* Patient is ineligible for full (100%) chemotherapy doses at first treatment cycle.
* Patient has partial or complete dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency.
* Patient has had radiation therapy against the only measurable lesion within 4 weeks of start of study treatment.
* Patient has a medical condition treated with anticoagulant medication that cannot be replaced by low molecular weight heparin or a direct oral anticoagulant during active study treatment.
* Patient has a nervous system disorder worse than CTCAE grade 1.
* Patient has any medical condition that will preclude him/her from immune checkpoint blockade therapy, such as:

  * Active or chronic hepatitis B or hepatitis C. - Known history of human immunodeficiency virus or acquired immunodeficiency-related illnesses.
  * Diagnosis of immunodeficiency or medical condition requiring systemic steroids or other forms of immunosuppressive therapy.
  * Autoimmune disease that has required systemic therapy within the past 2 years.
  * Receipt of live attenuated vaccination within 30 days prior to study entry or within 30 days of receiving study therapy.
  * Active infection or chronic infection requiring chronic suppressive antibiotics.
  * Known history of previous diagnosis of tuberculosis.
* Patient with current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 28 days before the first dose of study therapy, with the exceptions of intranasal corticosteroids or systemic corticosteroids at physiological doses that do not exceed 10mg/day of prednisone or an equivalent corticosteroid.
* Patient has any medical condition or needs to use medication, as listed in the SmPC of each Investigational Medical Product (IMP), that will preclude him/her from receiving treatment with IMP, such as:

  * Pernicious anemia or anemias due to vitamin B12 deficiency (SmPC-listed contraindications for folinic acid).
  * A known complete absence of DPD activity.
  * Has been treated with brivudine, sorivudine, or their chemically related analogs, which are potent inhibitors of the enzyme DPD that degrades fluorouracil. Fluorouracil must not be taken within 4 weeks of treatment with brivudine, sorivudine, or their chemically related analogs.
  * Other SmPC-listed contraindications for the IMPs are covered by other exclusion criteria.
* Patient has undergone treatment with any IMP that may interfere with the study treatment within 4 weeks prior to first administration of study drug.
* Patient has known hypersensitivity to any of the study IMP components.
* Patient has history of other prior malignancy, with the exception of curatively treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, cervical cancer stage IB, stage I prostate cancer considered not necessary to treat, and another malignancy that was treated with curative intent more than 5 years ago and has not relapsed later.
* Patient has significant cardiac, pulmonary, or other medical illness that would limit activity of daily life or survival.
* Patient is pregnant or breastfeeding.
* Patient has any other reason, in the opinion of Clinical Investigator, not to participate in the study.
