Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?Patients with unresectable or metastatic BRAF-mutant melanoma high-risk patients will be given 450 mg orally (PO) daily (QD) plus binimetinib 45 mg PO twice daily (BID) together with nivolumab administered intravenously (IV) at 3mg/kg and ipilimumab administered IV at 1 mg/kg every 3 weeks for 4 doses, followed by nivolumab administered IV at 480mg every 4 weeks until progression or discontinuation due to toxicity. Concurrently, a triple therapy arm will be explored with encorafenib 300 mg PO QD together with ipilimumab administered IV at 1mg/kg and nivolumab 3mg/kg IV every 3 weeks for 4 doses, followed by nivolumab administered at 480mg every 4 weeks until progression or discontinuation due to toxicity. Tolerability of the two arms will be compared, and a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) will be determined. After determination of treatment schedule, expansion cohorts will further explore the preliminary efficacy and further describe the toxicity profile of the triplet or quadruplet regimen in high-risk cohorts including symptomatic brain metastases or liver metastases with elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) or bulky systemic disease burden.
