- Brief Summary
This phase II MATCH treatment trial identifies the effects of trametinib and dabrafenib in patients whose cancer has genetic changes called BRAF V600 mutations. Dabrafenib may stop the growth of cancer by blocking BRAF proteins which may be needed for cell growth. Trametinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking MEK proteins which, in addition to BRAF proteins, may also be needed for cell growth. Researchers hope to learn if giving trametinib with dabrafenib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.
- Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the proportion of patients with objective response (OR) to targeted study agent(s) in patients with advanced refractory cancers/lymphomas/multiple myeloma.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the proportion of patients alive and progression free at 6 months of treatment with targeted study agent in patients with advanced refractory cancers/lymphomas/multiple myeloma.
II. To evaluate time until death or disease progression. III. To identify potential predictive biomarkers beyond the genomic alteration by which treatment is assigned or resistance mechanisms using additional genomic, ribonucleic acid (RNA), protein and imaging-based assessment platforms.
IV. To assess whether radiomic phenotypes obtained from pre-treatment imaging and changes from pre- through post-therapy imaging can predict objective response and progression free survival and to evaluate the association between pre-treatment radiomic phenotypes and targeted gene mutation patterns of tumor biopsy specimens.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive dabrafenib mesylate orally (PO) twice daily (BID) and trametinib dimethyl sulfoxide PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months if less than 2 years from study entry, and then every 6 months for year 3 from study entry.

-
Patients who previously received monoclonal antibody therapy (eg. ipilimumab and others) must have stopped the prior therapy for 8 or more weeks before starting on trametinib and dabrafenib
-
Patients with a diagnosis of metastatic melanoma from a cutaneous, acral, mucosal, or unknown primary site are excluded

-
Patients with prior exposure to dabrafenib or trametinib on another treatment subprotocol of the MATCH trial are excluded
-
Current use of a prohibited medication. Patients receiving any medications or substances that are strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A or CYP2C8 are ineligible. Current use of, or intended ongoing treatment with: herbal remedies (e.g., St. John's wort), or strong inhibitors or inducers of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) or breast cancer resistance protein 1 (Bcrp1) should also be excluded
-
Patients with a history of hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are excluded. An exception will be patients with cleared HBV and HCV infection which will be allowed on study
-
Patients with history of RAS mutation-positive tumors are not eligible regardless of interval from the current study
- NOTE: Prospective RAS testing is not required. However, if the results of previous RAS testing are known, they must be used in assessing eligibility

- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Treatment (dabrafenib, trametinib) Dabrafenib Mesylate Patients receive dabrafenib mesylate PO BID and trametinib dimethyl sulfoxide PO QD on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Treatment (dabrafenib, trametinib) Trametinib Dimethyl Sulfoxide Patients receive dabrafenib mesylate PO BID and trametinib dimethyl sulfoxide PO QD on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Objective response rate (ORR) Tumor assessments occurred at baseline, then every 2 cycles for the first 26 cycles and every 3 cycles thereafter until disease progression, up to 3 years post registration ORR is defined as the percentage of patients whose tumors have a complete or partial response to treatment among eligible and treated patients. Objective response rate is defined consistent with Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1, the Cheson (2014) criteria for lymphoma patients, and the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology criteria for glioblastoma patients. For each treatment arm, 90% two-sided binomial exact confidence interval will be calculated for ORR.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Progression free survival (PFS) Assessed at baseline, then every 2 cycles for the first 26 cycles and every 3 cycles thereafter until disease progression, up to 3 years post registration PFS is defined as time from treatment start date to date of progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Overall survival (OS) Assessed every 3 months for =< 2 years and every 6 months for year 3 OS is defined as time from treatment start date to date of death from any cause. Patients alive at the time of analysis are censored at last contact date. OS will be evaluated specifically for each drug (or step) using the Kaplan-Meier method.
