Brief Summary
This open-label, multi-center, three-period, one-sequence study will investigate the effect of rifampin on the PK of vemurafenib in participants with unresectable BRAFV600-mutation positive metastatic melanoma or other malignant tumor type that harbors a V600-activating mutation of BRAF without acceptable standard treatment options. Eligible participants will have the option to continue treatment with vemurafenib as part of an extension study GO28399 (NCT01739764).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time-curve From Zero to the Last Measurable Concentration Time Point (AUClast) of Vemurafenib
AUClast is the area under the vemurafenib plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to the time of last measured concentration of vemurafenib (Tlast). Area under the curve (AUC) is a measure of the plasma concentration of a drug over time. AUClast is presented in micrograms times (\*) hour per milliliter (mcg\*h/mL).
Predose (0 hour), 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30-32, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post vemurafenib-dose on Day 1 (Period A) and Day 17 (Period C)
Area Under the Plasma Concentration Time-curve From Zero to Extrapolated Infinite Time (AUC[0-inf]) of Vemurafenib
AUC(0-inf) is the AUC from time zero (pre-dose) to extrapolated infinite time (0-inf). AUC is a measure of the plasma concentration of a drug over time. AUC(0-inf) is presented in mcg\*h/mL.
Predose (0 hour), 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30-32, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post vemurafenib-dose on Day 1 (Period A) and Day 17 (Period C)
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Vemurafenib
Cmax is the maximum observed plasma vemurafenib concentration, presented in microgram per milliliter (mcg/mL).
Predose (0 hour), 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30-32, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post vemurafenib-dose on Day 1 (Period A) and Day 17 (Period C)
Other Outcomes (5)
Time to Reach Cmax (Tmax) of Vemurafenib
Predose (0 hour), 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30-32, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post vemurafenib-dose on Day 1 (Period A) and Day 17 (Period C)
Plasma Elimination Half Life (t1/2) of Vemurafenib
Predose (0 hour), 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30-32, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post vemurafenib-dose on Day 1 (Period A) and Day 17 (Period C)
Plasma Apparent Clearance (CL/F) of Vemurafenib
Predose (0 hour), 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 30-32, 48, 72, 96, 120, 168 hours post vemurafenib-dose on Day 1 (Period A) and Day 17 (Period C)

Study Arms (1)
Vemurafenib + Rifampin
EXPERIMENTALThere will be 3 intervention periods in the study: Period A (Days 1 to 7), Period B (Days 8 to 16), and Period C (Days 17 to 24). Participants, after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, will receive vemurafenib at a dose of 960 milligrams (mg) as film-coated tablets orally alone on Day 1 (Period A); with rifampin (at a dose of 600 mg as capsules orally) on Day 17 (Period C); and rifampin alone at a dose of 600 mg as capsules orally once daily will be administered from Days 8 through 16 (Period B) and from Days 18 through 23 (Period C).
Interventions
Rifampin at a dose of 600 mg as capsules orally once daily will be administered from Days 8 through 23 (Periods B and C).
Participants, after an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, will receive vemurafenib at a dose of 960 mg as film-coated tablets orally on Day 1 (Period A) and on Day 17 (Period C).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
