Clinical Trial Summary

This phase II trial studies trametinib in treating patients with melanoma with v-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B (BRAF) non-V600 mutations that has spread to other places in the body. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.


Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the clinical efficacy of trametinib in advanced BRAF nonV600mutation (MUT) melanoma ("high activity" group). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To characterize the safety of trametinib. II. To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of trametinib in advanced BRAF nonV600MUT melanoma. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the clinical efficacy of trametinib in advanced BRAF nonV600MUT melanoma ("low activity/unknown" group). II. Identify mechanisms of resistance to trametinib in this patient population. OUTLINE: Patients receive trametinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 28 days.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other Duration of Response in "Low Affinity" Group Estimated probable duration from date of first partial or complete response as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria to date of disease progression, using the Kaplan-Meier method with censoring (see analysis population description for additional details). Disease progression is defined under RECIST v1.1 as >= 20% increase in sum of longest diameters of target lesions, unequivocal progression of non-target lesions, or appearance of new lesions. Up to 3 years
Other Clinical Benefit (CR + PR + SD) Per RECIST v. 1.1 in "Low Affinity" Group Per RECIST criteria v. 1.1: measurable lesions: complete response (CR) disappearance of target lesions, partial response (PR) > 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) > 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions or appearance of new lesions, stable disease (SD) neither sufficient decrease nor increase of the sum of smallest sum of the LD of target lesions. Up to 12 months
Other Molecular Characteristics of Patient Samples, Including Archival Samples Molecular characterization of tumor tissue will be performed to identify markers that correlate with clinical responsiveness to treatment with trametinib. Optional on-treatment biopsies will be used to evaluate pharmacodynamic and other molecular effects of treatment, which will be compared to clinical outcomes. Optional post-progression samples will be analyzed to identify mechanisms of resistance. Up to 3 years
Primary Overall Response Rate in "High Affinity" Group Per RECIST criteria version (v.) 1.1: measurable lesions: complete response (CR) disappearance of target lesions, partial response (PR) > 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, progressive disease (PD) > 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions or appearance of new lesions, stable disease (SD) neither sufficient decrease nor increase of the sum of smallest sum of the LD of target lesions. Up to 12 months
Secondary Progression-Free Survival All Patients Progression of disease as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria will be reported. Time from on treatment to progression or death (whichever comes first). For those did not progress or die, they were censored at the last follow up or off study date(if they do not have a last date of follow up). On-study date to lesser of date of progression or date of death from any cause (assessed up to 3 years)
Secondary Duration of Response in "High Affinity" Group Estimated probable duration from date of objective response to date of disease progression, using the Kaplan-Meier method with censoring (see analysis population description for additional details). Disease progression is defined under RECIST v1.1 as >= 20% increase in sum of longest diameters of target lesions, unequivocal progression of non-target lesions, or appearance of new lesions. Date of first partial or complete response as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria to date of progression up to 3 years
