NCT01286753

Brief Summary

This open-label, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Vemurafenib (RO5185426) in participants with metastatic or unresectable papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) positive for the BRAF V600 mutation and resistant to radioactive iodine therapy. Participants will receive vemurafenib 960 milligrams (mg) orally twice daily until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Best Overall Response Rate in TKI-Naive Participants

    Best overall response rate was assessed by the investigators according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. Best overall response rate: the percentage of participants with best objective response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (calculated as the number of participants with best response CR or PR divided by the total number of efficacy-evaluable participants). CR: disappearance of all target lesions with reduction in target/non-target pathological lymph nodes to \< 10 millimeters (mm). PR: ≥ 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, compared to the baseline sum diameters.

    Up to approximately 4 years

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Best Overall Response Rate in TKI-Experienced Participants

    Up to approximately 4 years

  • Clinical Benefit Rate

    Up to approximately 4 years

  • Duration of Response

    From the date of first qualifying response to the date of PD or death for any cause (up to approximately 4 years)

  • Progression-Free Survival

    From the day of first treatment until the first documented PD or death (up to approximately 4 years)

  • Overall Survival

    From the date of first treatment to the date of death for any cause (up to approximately 4 years)

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult participants. \>/= 18 years of age
  • Histologically confirmed metastatic or unresectable papillary thyroid cancer for which standard curative or palliative measures do not exist or are no longer effective; participants whose tumors exhibit areas of "other histology" may be enrolled, provided the tumor histology remains predominantly papillary
  • Positive for BRAF V600 mutation (Roche Cobas 4800 BRAF V600 Mutation Test)
  • Radioactive Iodine resistant disease
  • Prior therapy excluding (Cohort 1, TKI Naive) or including (Cohort 2, TKI Experienced) TKI
  • Clinically relevant disease progression according to RECIST criteria within the prior 14 months
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1
  • Adequate hematological, renal and liver function

You may not qualify if:

  • Histological diagnosis other than papillary PTC, including squamous cell variants of PTC or PTC with areas of squamous metaplasia
  • Active or untreated central nervous system metastases
  • History of or known carcinomatous meningitis
  • Anticipated or ongoing administration of any anti-cancer therapies other than those administered in the study
  • Active squamous cell skin cancer that has not been excised or adequately healed post excision
  • Previous treatment with any agent that specifically and selectively targets the MEK or BRAF pathway
  • Prior radiotherapy to the only measurable lesion
  • Clinically relevant cardio-vascular disease or event within the prior 6 months
