Inclusion criteria
1. Histologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma. 2. At least one CRLM * measurable according to RECIST 1.1, * at least \>2 cm in maximal diameter, * visible on non-contrast enhanced computerized tomography (CT) scan or ultrasonography, * amenable to biopsy, * and amenable to percutaneous i.t. injection. 3. At least one other metastasis (controlateral CRLM or a distant visceral or lymph node metastasis) * measurable according to RECIST 1.1, * and amenable to biopsy. 4. Tumor lesions located in previously irradiated areas are considered measurable if disease progression has been demonstrated in such lesions. 5. Tumor liver involvement \<50% on baseline CT scan. 6. Previous failure of active drug classes in mCRC (fluoropyrimidines, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, EGFR inhibitors \[if wild-type RAS mCRC\] and antiangiogenics). 7. Representative tumor specimens at the initial diagnosis of CRC (paraffin blocks (preferred) or at least 10 unstained slides), with the corresponding pathology report, if available. 8. Age \>/=18 years. 9. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1 10. Expected life expectancy \>3 months (no rapidly progressive disease). 11. Adequate organ functions: * Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL or ≥5.6 mmol/L (blood cell transfusions are allowed), absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 x 109/L, platelets ≥100 x 109/L * Serum creatinine ≤1.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN) or creatinine clearance (measured, or calculated per institutional standard) ≥50 mL/min for subject with creatinine levels \>1.5 x institutional ULN (glomerular filtration rate can also be used in place of creatinine or creatinine clearance) * Serum total bilirubin ≤1.5 ULN or direct (unconjugated) bilirubin ≤ULN for subjects with total bilirubin levels \>1.5 ULN * AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) ≤5 ULN * Albumin \>33 g/L * International normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5 ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants 12. Female subjects of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study medication. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required. 13. Female subjects of childbearing potential should be willing to use two validated methods of birth control or be surgically sterile, or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through 7 months after the last dose of study medication (Reference Section 5.9.2). Subjects of childbearing potential are those who have not been surgically sterilized or have not been free from menses for \> 1 year. 14. Sexually active male subjects unless surgically sterile, must agree to use condoms as an effective barrier method of contraception or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through 7 months after the last dose of study medication. It is recommended that their sexual partners use an effective contraceptive during the same period. 15. Signed informed consent. 16. Affiliation to or beneficiary of a social security system.
Exclusion criteria
1. Allergy or contraindication to oxaliplatin (including peripheral neuropathy \[≥ grade 2\]), fluorouracil (including known dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency) or leucovorin or to any other study drug. 2. Prior history of intolerance to full-dose FOLFOX regimen. 3. History of anterior organ transplantation, including allograft stem cell transplantation 4. History of interstitial lung disease 5. Patients eligible for curative-intent local therapies (e.g., surgery or thermablation). 6. Contraindication to percutaneous injection/biopsy (e.g., coagulation disorder, anticoagulant or antiaggregant therapy). Patients treated with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) are eligible if they can interrupt their treatment for biopsies and i.t. injections. 7. Concomitant administration of any other anticancer therapy during the trial treatment period. 8. Prior chemotherapy, targeted therapy or radiation therapy within 2 weeks prior to study Day 1 or adverse events due to a previously administered agent that have not recovered (i.e., ≤ Grade 1) at baseline. 9. Immunodeficiency or systemic steroid therapy equivalent to prednisolone \>10mg/day or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment. 10.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) | For all the cohorts, the DLT period to determine the MTD will be 28 days | MTD will be determined based on the DLT definitions and identified as the maximum dose level at which less than 33% of DLT are observed in the evaluable patients. |
| Recommanded phase 2 dose (RP2D) | RP2D will be assessed on 8 weeks | RP2D will be determined based on the MTD identified, on analysis of DLT defining events |
