Trial overview
Official title: An Open-Label, Multicentre, Corollary Study of Pre-Operative Therapy with Dabrafenib and the Combination of Dabrafenib with Trametinib in Subjects with BRAF Mutation-Positive Metastatic Melanoma to the Brain
Trial description: This is a global, multi-centre, open-label, study of GSK2118436 conducted in up to 30 evaluable subjects with resectable, BRAF V600E or V600K mutation-positive metastatic melanoma to the brain. All subjects in this study are required to have accessible extracranial metastases and are agreeable to undergo repetitive biopsies. The first cohort of 15 subjects will receive dabrafenib orally 150mg twice daily (BID) for 7 to 14 days prior to surgery (Cohort A); the second cohort of 15 subjects will receive the combination of dabrafenib 150 mg BID and trametinib 2 mg once daily for 7 to 14 days prior to surgery (Cohort B). The primary purpose of this study is to determine levels and distribution of dabrafenib, its metabolites, and trametinib (Cohort B only) in parenchymal brain metastases, extracranial metastases, and peripheral blood (plasma) within two cohorts of subjects with BRAF V600E/K mutation-positive melanoma that has metastasized to the brain. All subjects will be followed for survival and new anti-cancer therapy for a total of two years or until death or the subject wishes to withdraw from further follow-up.

Accepts healthy volunteers
No
- Signed written informed consent
- Histologically-confirmed metastatic melanoma (Stage IV), carrying BRAF V600E or V600K mutation as determined by testing certified for clinical diagnostic purposes. Previously performed certified BRAF testing is acceptable. If no prior BRAF mutation testing results are available, testing of a distant metastasis is preferred, but testing of a regional metastasis or primary tumor is also acceptable
- Neurological symptoms related to brain metastasis that are not controlled with a stable or decreasing dose of oral steroids for at least 7 days prior to starting GSK2118436
- Prior Central Nervous System (CNS)-directed local therapies, including surgical resection, whole brain radiation (WBRT), Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), or gamma knife (GK)
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Signed written informed consent
- Histologically-confirmed metastatic melanoma (Stage IV), carrying BRAF V600E or V600K mutation as determined by testing certified for clinical diagnostic purposes. Previously performed certified BRAF testing is acceptable. If no prior BRAF mutation testing results are available, testing of a distant metastasis is preferred, but testing of a regional metastasis or primary tumor is also acceptable
- At least one intracranial lesion >=1.0 cm but <=4.0 cm that can be treated with surgical resection in the opinion of the treating physicians, and for which immediate local therapy is not clinically indicated
- At least two extracranial lesions that are easily accessible for biopsy, in the judgment of the treating physician. Easily accessible tumors may include cutaneous, subcutaneous, and superficial lymph node metastases.
- Age >18 years of age.
- Able to swallow and retain oral medication
- Women with child-bearing potential must be willing to practice acceptable methods of birth control during the study
- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days of first dose of study treatment.
- Must be able to understand and comply with protocol requirements and instructions
