Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This open-label, Phase I study will evaluate the impact of severe hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics and safety of vemurafenib in participants with BRAF V600 mutation positive cancer. Participants will receive vemurafenib 960 milligrams (mg) (normal hepatic function) or 720 mg (severe hepatic impairment) orally twice daily (BID) on Days 1 to 20 (morning dose) and from Day 27 onward until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Dose-Normalized Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) of Vemurafenib During the Dose Interval (12 hours) (AUCtau) on Day 20 [Pre-dose (0 hour); 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 168 hours after the morning dose on Day 20]

    2. Dose-Normalized Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of Vemurafenib on Day 20 [Pre-dose (0 hour); 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 168 hours after the morning dose on Day 20]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Percentage of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) [Baseline up to approximately 3 years]

    2. Dose-Normalized AUCtau of of Vemurafenib on Day 1 [Pre-dose (0 hour); 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours after the morning dose on Day 1]

    3. Dose-Normalized AUC from Time 0 to Last Measurable Concentration Time Point (AUC0-last) of Vemurafenib on Day 20 [Pre-dose (0 hour); 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 168 hours after the morning dose on Day 20]

    4. Dose-Normalized AUC from Time 0 to Infinity (AUC0-∞) of Vemurafenib on Day 20 [Pre-dose (0 hour); 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, and 168 hours after the morning dose on Day 20]
