Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This open-label, dose-escalation study of vemurafenib in combination with cobimetinib will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics in participants with BRAFV600 mutation-positive metastatic melanoma. Participants with previously untreated, BRAFV600E mutation-positive, locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic melanoma or those who have progressed on vemurafenib monotherapy immediately prior to enrolling in this trial are eligible. Participants will be assigned to different cohorts with escalating oral doses of vemurafenib and cobimetinib. This study consists of 2 stages, Stage 1 (Dose Escalation Stage [DES] and Cohort Expansion Stage [CES]) and the anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or any other discontinuation criterion is met.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants With an Objective Response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version (V) 1.1 [Assessed at screening (within 28 days prior to initiation of Cycle 1), every 6 weeks thereafter until disease progression (up to 82 months)]

      Tumor response of CR or PR is considered as objective response. CR: disappearance of all target lesions, reduction in short axis <10 millimeters in pathological lymph nodes (target and non-target lesions); PR: at least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter. Responses were confirmed by repeat assessments ≥4 weeks after initial documentation.

    2. Percentage of Participants With Disease Progression According to RECIST V 1.1 [Assessed at screening (within 28 days prior to initiation of Cycle 1), every 6 weeks thereafter until disease progression or death (up to 82 months)]

      Progressive disease (PD) according to RECIST V 1.1: at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (nadir), including baseline; in addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm; appearance of 1 or more lesions is also considered as progression.

    3. Median Duration of Response (DOR) [Time from first occurrence of objective response until the time of disease progression or death from any cause (up to 82 months)]

      Duration of response, defined as the time from first occurrence of a documented objective response until the time of disease progression, as determined by investigator review of tumor assessments using RECIST v 1.1, or death from any cause during the study (that is within 30 days after the last dose of study treatment).

    4. Overall Survival (OS) [Assessed at screening (within 28 days prior to initiation of Cycle 1), every 6 weeks thereafter until disease progression or death (up to 82 months)]

      OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Participants were censored at the last date of tumor measurement, the last date in the study drug log, or the date of last follow-up. OS analyzed using Kaplan-Meier estimate.

    5. Average Percent Change From Baseline in Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron Emission Tomography (FDG-PET) at Cycle 1 and Cycle 2 [Cycle 1 (Days 10 to 14), Cycle 2 (Days 14+7)]

      The pharmacodynamic effect of cobimetinib in combination with vemurafenib was assessed by measuring changes in FDG uptake as characterized by the lean body mass corrected (LBM) maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) measurement using FDG-PET. Post-baseline timepoint Cycle 1 was averaged between Days 10 to 14 and Cycle 2 for Days 14+7.

    6. Pharmacodynamics: Number of Participants With Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) Inhibition, as Assessed by Immunohistochemistry (IHC) [At baseline; Cycle 1: Day 14; at disease progression (Up to 32 months)]

      Changes in effector molecules of the MAPK pathway that are directly or indirectly affected by BRAF and MEK inhibition (including but not limited to ERK and phosphorylated ERK and MEK) by IHC using biopsies at baseline, between Days 10-14 of Cycle 1, and at disease progression. IHC is a staining process performed on fresh/frozen tumor tissue samples.

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details Study included two stages. Stage 1: dose escalation stage (DES), consisted of 9 "Cobimetinib + Vemurafenib" combination arms and 1 Cobimetinib monotherapy. Stage 2: cohort expansion stage (CES), consisted of 2 "Cobimetinib + Vemurafenib" combination arms, treated with recommended phase 2 dose.
    Pre-assignment Detail Participants data were pooled across dose/regimen cohorts from two stages and analyzed separately per final analysis for vemurafenib-PD and BRAFi-naive participants who received cobimetinib and vemurafenib. Data is presented based on the final CSR. As of 2017 per-cohort data were not collected
    Arm/Group Title Vemurafenib PD Participants BRAFi-naïve Participants Cobimetinib Monotherapy (100 mg or 60 mg)
    Arm/Group Description All participants who progressed on vemurafenib monotherapy immediately prior to enrollment into this study were treated with vemurafenib in combination with cobimetinib at a particular dose combination and dosing schedule depending on the cohort in which they were enrolled until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or any other discontinuation criterion was met. All participants who were previously untreated or previously treated but naïve to BRAF or MEK inhibitor therapy were considered as BRAFi-naïve participants. These participants were treated with vemurafenib in combination with cobimetinib at a particular dose combination and dosing schedule depending on the cohort in which they were enrolled until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or any other discontinuation criterion was met. Participants received oral 60 mg cobimetinib QD on 21/7 dosing schedule, or oral 100 mg cobimetinib QD on 14/14 dosing schedule of every cycle (1 Cycle=28 Days), until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or any other discontinuation criteria were met.
