Summary

This trial is testing the effects and best dose of uprosertib when given with dabrafenib and trametinib for stage IIIC-IV cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with stage IIIC-IV cancer, specifically those with BRAF^V600 mutant metastatic cancer. Participants must have resolved any previous treatment side effects to a mild level and be able to take oral medication without significant gastrointestinal issues. They should not be pregnant or nursing, have active hepatitis B/C, uncontrolled illnesses like heart disease or diabetes, or a history of severe allergic reactions to similar drugs.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of uprosertib with dabrafenib and trametinib in patients with advanced cancer stages. It aims to find the best dose that can block enzymes needed for tumor cell growth and determine how effective this drug combo is compared to current treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include but are not limited to: changes in heartbeat rhythm, high blood pressure, bleeding risks including internal bleeding, inflammation of lungs (pneumonitis), liver function changes due to hepatitis infection risk increase, vision problems such as retinal vein occlusion (RVO), and possible allergic reactions.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (uprosertib, dabrafenib, trametinib)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Dabrafenib mesylate and uprosertib (Phase I): Patients receive dabrafenib PO BID and uprosertib PO QD on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo a CT scan, MRI, and blood sample collection throughout trial. Patients may also undergo a biopsy throughout the trial. Dabrafenib mesylate, trametinib dimethyl sulfoxide, and uprosertib (Phase I and Phase II): Patients receive dabrafenib PO BID, trametinib PO QD, and uprosertib PO QD on days 1-28.
