Brief Summary:
This is a multicenter, randomized open-label Phase 2 study to assess the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic (PK) of 2 dosing regimens of encorafenib + binimetinib combination in patients with BRAFV600-mutant melanoma with brain metastasis. Approximately 100 patients will be enrolled, including 9 patients in a Safety Lead-in of the high-dose treatment arm. After a Screening Period, treatment will be administered in 28-day cycles and will continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, start of subsequent anticancer therapy, death.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Standard Dose Arm

Patients in the standard-dose treatment arm will receive encorafenib and binimetinib in 28-day cycles.

  • 450 mg encorafenib orally once a day (QD)
  • 45 mg binimetinib orally twice a day (BID)

Patients who are able to tolerate the standard dose during the first 4 weeks of treatment (Cycle 1) should be dose-escalated to 600 mg encorafenib QD plus 45 mg binimetinib BID provided they meet protocol-defined criteria.

 Drug: encorafenib
taken orally

Drug: binimetinib
taken orally
Experimental: High Dose Arm

Patients in the high-dose treatment arm will receive encorafenib and binimetinib in 28-day cycles.

  • 300 mg encorafenib orally twice a day (BID)
  • 45 mg binimetinib orally twice a day (BID)
 Drug: encorafenib
taken orally

Drug: binimetinib

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :

  2. Safety Lead-in: Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 days ]
  3. Safety Lead-in: Incidence of dose modifications due to AEs [ Time Frame: Up to 28 days ]
  4. Safety Lead-in: Incidence of treatment discontinuations due to AEs [ Time Frame: Up to 28 days ]
  5. Phase 2: Brain metastasis response rate (BMRR) per modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (mRECIST v1.1) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Extracranial response rate per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  2. Global response rate (brain metastasis response per mRECIST v1.1 and extracranial response per RECIST v1.1) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
    Global response rate is defined as the proportion of patients with a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per Investigator assessment for brain metastasis and extracranial lesions according to mRECIST v1.1 and RECIST v1.1, respectively.

  3. Disease control rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  4. Duration of Response (DOR) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  5. Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  6. Brain metastasis response rate (BMRR) per mRECIST v1.1 for Safety Lead-in only [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  7. Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  8. Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 24 months ]
  9. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of binimetinib and its metabolite [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 1 and Day 1 of Cycle 2 and Cycle 3; 28 day cycles ]
    Plasma concentrations of binimetinib

  10. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of encorafenib and its metabolite [ Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 15 of Cycle 1 and Day 1 of Cycle 2 and 3; 28 day cycles ]
    Plasma concentrations of encorafenib

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma with metastases to the brain.
  • Presence of B-RAF proto-oncogene, V600 mutant (BRAFV600) mutation in tumor tissue previously determined by a local PCR or NGS-based assay at any time prior to Screening or by a central laboratory during Screening.
  • Must have at least 1 parenchymal brain lesion ≥ 0.5 cm and ≤ 4 cm, defined as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast-enhancing lesion that may be accurately measured in at least 1 dimension. (Measurable intracranial lesions that have been previously irradiated and have not been shown to be progressing following irradiation should not be considered as target lesions).

  • Patients may have received the following prior therapies:

    1. Safety Lead-in, Phase 2 Randomized , Phase 2 Arm A Cohort 1: May have received prior local therapy for brain metastases including but not restricted to brain surgery, whole brain radiotherapy, stereotactic radiotherapy or stereotactic radiosurgery. Multiple local (brain) therapies or combinations of local therapies are allowed. For patients receiving local therapy to all brain lesions (including WBRT), progression of pre-existing lesions based on RECIST 1.1 (> 20% increase in longest diameter on baseline scan) or new measurable lesions are required. For patients receiving local therapy for some but not all lesions, disease progression based on RECIST 1.1 is not required as long as there are remaining brain lesions that are measurable and not previously treated.
    2. Phase 2 Arm A Cohort 2: Received no prior local therapy (e.g., brain surgery, craniotomy, SRS or SRT) for brain metastases.
    3. All patients (Safety Lead-In and Phase 2): May have received prior immunotherapy.
    4. All patients (Safety Lead-In and Phase 2): If receiving concomitant corticosteroids must be on a stable or decreasing dose for at least 2 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment (up to a total daily dose of 4mg of dexamethasone or equivalent).
  • An Eastern Cooperation Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0 or 1 and Karnofsky score ≥ 80
  • Adequate bone marrow, organ function and laboratory parameters

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with symptomatic brain metastasis.
  • Uveal or mucosal melanoma.
  • History of or current leptomeningeal metastases.
  • Treatment with SRS or craniotomy within 14 days prior to start of study treatment, or treatment with whole-brain radiation within 28 days prior to study treatment. Patients who received local therapy should have complete recovery with no neurological sequelae.

  • Either of the following:

    1. Radiation therapy to non-brain visceral metastasis within 2 weeks prior to start of study treatment;
    2. Continuous or intermittent small-molecule therapeutics or investigational agents within 5 half-lives of the agent (or within 4 weeks prior to start of study treatment, when half-life is unknown).
  • Patients treated in the adjuvant setting with BRAF or MEK inhibitor(s) < 6 months prior to enrollment. Patients who received BRAF or MEK inhibitors in the metastatic setting are excluded.
  • Patient has not recovered to ≤ Grade 1 from toxic effects of prior therapy before starting study treatment.
