Filter by:KIT (receptor tyrosine kinase) mutations occur in 15% of acral and mucosal melanomas. PIANO is a single arm, phase II, open-label, multicentre study to evaluate the efficacy and safety (plus molecular basis of such effects) of the KIT inhibitor PLX3397 (developed by Plexxikon) in advanced KIT mutated acral and mucosal melanoma. In this trial a total of 24 patients (9 in the first stage and 15 in the second stage) will receive treatment over a 24 month recruitment period. Following consent and successful screening, patients will receive PLX3397 capsules 1000mg/day as monotherapy, and will remain on therapy as long as they are deriving clinical benefit. Patients will be seen every 4 weeks during treatment to monitor response and toxicity. Routine blood tests will be carried out at all visits and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics sampling (1 x 8 milliliter(ml) whole blood sample) will be done pre-dose on Day 1 and Day 15, frozen and stored locally and sent to Plexxikon's vendor for central analysis at the end of the study. Imaging will be carried out every 12 weeks to monitor response. The first 9 patients will also receive two [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET scans (baseline and at Day 15). From specific named participating sites, 12 patients will provide additional (optional) consent to take part in translational research. 5 of these patients will have a fresh tumour biopsy taken at baseline, at day 15 and upon disease progression. The same 5 patients plus an additional 7 patients (to give a total of 12 patients) will also donate blood samples at baseline, 2 weeks, 12 weeks and on disease progression for the evaluation of circulating tumour cells and circulating free tumour DNA. All patients will be followed up every 6 months until death or for 12 months after the last patient has discontinued study treatment.
This multi-center, prospective, observational safety study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Zelboraf (vemurafenib) in a real world setting. Data from Zelboraf-treated patients with BRAF-V600 mutation-positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma will be collected for 2 years.
The purpose of this study is to find the safe dose of nab-paclitaxel in children with solid tumors, and to see if it works to treat these solid tumors in children and young adults (in Phase 1 ≤ 18 years old and in Phase 2 ≤ 24 years old). After the final dose has been chosen, patients will be enrolled according to the specific solid tumor type, (neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, or Ewing's sarcoma), to see how nab-paclitaxel works in treating these tumors.
This open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of vemurafenib in Chinese participants with BRAF V600 mutation-positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Participants will receive vemurafenib 960 milligrams (mg) orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
This open-label, single-arm, multicenter study will assess the safety and efficacy of Zelboraf (vemurafenib) in patients with Braf V600 mutation positive metastatic melanoma. Patients will receive Zelboraf 960 mg twice a day until progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, death, reasons deemed by the treating physician or study termination.
This non-interventional study will compare the Cobas BRAF V600 mutation assay with in-house methods used in molecular laboratories for the assessment of the BRAF mutation status in melanoma tumor samples. No patients will be enrolled in this study. Data will be collected for approximately 6 months.
This study was conducted to compare survival using pembrolizumab (SCH 900475, MK-3475) or standard chemotherapy in participants with advanced melanoma (MEL) who had progressed after prior therapy. Initial Treatment Period: Participants were initially randomized to receive either low-dose (2 mg/kg) pembrolizumab, higher dose (10 mg/kg) pembrolizumab or Investigator-choice chemotherapy (ICC). The four standard chemotherapy choices were: carboplatin + paclitaxel, paclitaxel alone, dacarbazine, or temozolomide. The randomization to either pembrolizumab or ICC was conducted in an open-label fashion. The starting pembrolizumab dose was initially blinded to Investigators and participants until Amendment 03. With Amendment 03, all ongoing pembrolizumab participants were to be treated with open label, fixed dose pembrolizumab 200 mg, instead of a weight-based dosing of pembrolizumab. Switch-to-Pembrolizumab Treatment Period: Participants who were initially randomized to receive ICC and experienced progressive disease (PD) may have been eligible to switch to receiving pembrolizumab provided they met protocol-specified requirements for switching. Qualified participants were re-randomized to receive either pembrolizumab 2 mg/kg or pembrolizumab 10 mg/kg in a double-blind fashion. Participants who qualified to switch to pembrolizumab must have completed a washout period of ≥28 days from last dose of chemotherapy before receiving pembrolizumab. With Amendment 03, all switched-to-pembrolizumab participants were to be treated with open-label, fixed dose pembrolizumab 200 mg instead of a weight-based dosing of pembrolizumab.
To evaluate the efficacy of vemurafenib in combination with cobimetinib (GDC-0973), compared with vemurafenib and placebo, in previously untreated BRAF V600 mutation-positive patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic melanoma, as measured by progression-free survival (PFS), assessed by the study site investigator.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase Ib, dose-escalation and cohort-expansion study of atezolizumab (anti-programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1] antibody) in combination with vemurafenib or vemurafenib plus cobimetinib in participants with BRAFV600-mutation positive metastatic melanoma. Enrolled participants may continue treatment until they are no longer experiencing clinical benefit as assessed by the investigator and in alignment with the protocol.
This multicenter, open-label study will assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of DEDN6526A in patients with metastatic or unresectable melanoma. Cohorts of patients will receive escalating doses of DEDN6526A by intravenous infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. In the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, patients may continue to receive DEDN6552A for up to 17 cycles (1 year).
