NCT04720768

Brief Summary

This is an open-label, phase IB, non-randomised study consisting of a dose escalation phase and expansion phase, evaluating the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of the combination of encorafenib, binimetinib and palbociclib in patients with BRAF-mutant metastatic melanoma. Dose escalation phase: Previously treated or treatment-naïve patients will be evaluated after the first cycle for dose-limiting toxicities to ascertain the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of encorafenib, binimetinib and palbociclib. Expansion phase: Two cohorts of patients will be further evaluated for the efficacy and safety of the RP2D of palbociclib with encorafenib and binimetinib. Cohort 1 will include patients naïve to both BRAF and MEK inhibitors. Cohort 2 will include patients with either primary or acquired resistance to both BRAF and MEK inhibitors.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Dose-limiting toxicity (DLTs)

    Dose-Limiting Toxicity is defined as a toxicity that prevents further administration of the trial treatment at that dose level

    The assessment period of DLT for each patient is the first cycle (28 days) of treatment

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Adverse events (AEs) of Encorafenib, Binimetinib and Palbociclib

    Trough study completion, up until 12 months after last patient commences treatment

  • Tolerability as defined 80% compliance with each of Encorafenib, Binimetinib and Palbociclib individually.

    28 days for encorafenib and binimetinib, 21 days for palbociclib

  • Clinical effficacy defined by response

    8 weeks after commencement of treatment

  • Clinical efficacy as defined by time to progression

    From the date of registration until the date of disease progression

  • Clinical efficacy as defined by progression free survival

    From the date of registration until the date of first documented disease progression or date of death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 18 months)

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (4)

  • Response rates on Cycle 1 Day 15

    8 weeks after commencement of treatment

  • Mutation status of circulating DNA

    From the date of registration to disease progression, up to approximately 18 months

  • Genomic alterations in tumour tissue

    From the date of registration to disease progression, up to approximately 18 months

  • +1 more other outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 100 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Dose Escalation Phase only: (Australia only)
  • Patients who are naïve to, or have received prior BRAF and MEK inhibitor combination therapy. Prior treatment with chemotherapy and biological therapy (e.g. checkpoint inhibitor therapy) is permitted.
  • Dose Expansion Phase only: (All sites)
  • Cohort 1: Patients who are naïve to BRAF and MEK inhibitor therapy. Prior treatment with chemotherapy and biological therapy (e.g. checkpoint inhibitor therapy) is permitted.
  • Cohort 2: Patients who have progressed on prior BRAF and MEK inhibitor combination therapy. Prior treatment with chemotherapy and biological therapy (e.g. checkpoint inhibitor therapy) is permitted.
  • For both phases (All sites):
  • Patients (male and female) age ≥ 18 years
  • Has provided written informed consent prior to any screening procedure
  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of unresectable stage III or IV melanoma (stage IIIB to IV per American Joint Committee on Cancer \[AJCC\] 8th edition).
  • Documented evidence of BRAF V600 mutation.
  • Patients must provide either archival or newly obtained tumour sample at baseline. In addition, patients must agree to a mandatory biopsy during treatment and at the time of progression, if not medically contraindicated.
  • Evidence of measurable disease, as determined by RECIST v1.1. Note: Lesions in areas of prior radiotherapy or other locoregional therapies (e.g., percutaneous ablation) should not be considered measurable, unless lesion progression has been documented since the therapy.

  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 109/L Haemoglobin ≥ 10 g/L without transfusions Platelet count ≥ 100 x 109/L without transfusions Total serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or calculated or directly measured CrCl \< 50% LLN (lower limit of normal) Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN ( 3 x ULN in cases of known Gilbert's syndrome) AST/SGOT or ALT/SGPT ˂ 3 x ULN, or ˂ 5 x ULN if liver metastases are present PT/INR or aPTT \< 1.5xULN
  • ECOG Performance Status ≤ 2

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with uveal melanoma.
  • Patients with symptomatic or untreated brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease. Patients with previously treated or untreated for brain metastasis that are asymptomatic in the absence of corticosteroid therapy or on a stable dose of steroids for 4 weeks prior to registration are allowed to enroll. Brain metastases must be stable at least 4 weeks prior to registration with verification by imaging (e.g. brain MRI completed at screening demonstrating no current evidence of progressive brain metastases).

  • Impaired cardiovascular function or clinically significant cardiac disease including any of the following:
  • CHF requiring treatment (NYHA grade ≥ 2)
  • LVEF \< 50% as determined by MUGA scan or ECHO
  • History or presence of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias or uncontrolled atrial fibrillation
  • Clinically significant resting bradycardia
  • Unstable angina pectoris ≤ 3 months prior to registration
  • Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) ≤ 3 months prior to registration
  • QTcF \> 480 ms
