Improved Survival with Vemurafenib in Melanoma with BRAF V600E Mutation

Excerpt:
A phase 3 randomized clinical trial comparing vemurafenib with dacarbazine in 675 patients with previously untreated, metastatic melanoma with the BRAF V600E mutation....At 6 months, overall survival was 84% (95% confidence interval [CI], 78 to 89) in the vemurafenib group and 64% (95% CI, 56 to 73) in the dacarbazine group....Response rates were 48% for vemurafenib and 5% for dacarbazine….Vemurafenib produced improved rates of overall and progression free survival in patients with previously untreated melanoma with the BRAF V600E mutation.

Excerpt:
Patients (pts) with marginally resectable bulky stage III or resectable stage IV histologically confirmed melanoma were enrolled. BRAF V600 mutation status and pathology were confirmed...23 pts were treated with dabrafenib and trametinib, 3 pts were treated with vemurafenib and cobimetinib, and 3 with vemurafenib monotherapy.... BRAFi/MEKi combination is an effective and safe regimen in the perioperative treatment of melanoma.

Excerpt:
Recursive partitioning analysis (RPA) was performed to model relationships between prespecified covariates and ppOS in patients with BRAFV600-mutated metastatic melanoma who had experienced progressive disease (PD) following treatment with cobimetinib plus vemurafenib, vemurafenib monotherapy, or dacarbazine in the BRIM-2, BRIM-3, BRIM-7, and coBRIM studies....Across treatment cohorts, patients treated with immunotherapy or targeted therapy after PD had better ppOS than those given other treatments....

BRAF Inhibitor Resistance Mechanisms in Metastatic Melanoma: Spectrum and Clinical Impact

Excerpt:
Twenty patients had BRAFV600E (67%), 9 had BRAFV600K (30%), and 1 had BRAFV600R melanoma (3%). Nearly all (28 of 30; 93%) patients experienced tumor regression with treatment. The median PFS was 22.0 weeks [95% confidence interval (CI), 13.0–31.0) and the median OS was 80.7 weeks (95% CI, 46.0–115.4; Table 1).
