Title:
Contribution of MEK Inhibition to BRAF/MEK Inhibitor Combination Treatment of BRAF-Mutant Melanoma: Part 2 of the Randomized, Open-Label, Phase III COLUMBUS Trial
Excerpt:Eligible patients were 18 years and older with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced, unresectable/metastatic cutaneous melanoma or unknown primary melanoma (American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC] stage IIIB, IIIC, or IV) and the presence of BRAFV600E and/or BRAFV600K mutation in tumor tissue....The median PFS (95% CI) was 12.9 months (10.9 to 14.9) for COMBO300 versus 9.2 months (7.4 to 11.1) for ENCO300 (parts 1 and 2) and 7.4 months (5.6 to 9.2) for ENCO300 (part 2)....COMBO300 improved PFS, ORR, and tolerability compared with ENCO300, confirming the contribution of binimetinib to efficacy and safety.

Title:
Encorafenib plus binimetinib versus vemurafenib or encorafenib in patients with BRAF-mutant melanoma (COLUMBUS): a multicentre, open-label, randomised phase 3 trial
Excerpt:COLUMBUS was conducted as a two-part, randomised, open-label phase 3 study...Eligible patients were aged 18 years or older and had histologically confirmed locally advanced (American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC] stage IIIB, IIIC, or IV), unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma, or unknown primary melanoma; a BRAF V600E or BRAF V600K mutation;...1345 screened patients were randomly assigned to either the encorafenib plus binimetinib group (n=192), the encorafenib group (n=194), or the vemurafenib group (n=191)….median progression-free survival was 14·9 months (95% CI 11·0–18·5) in the encorafenib plus binimetinib group and 7·3 months (5·6–8·2) in the vemurafenib group (hazard ratio [HR] 0·54, 95% CI 0·41–0·71; two-sided p<0·0001)....Encorafenib plus binimetinib could represent a new treatment option for patients with BRAF-mutant melanoma.
