This open-label study will assess the efficacy and safety of vemurafenib (RO5185426) in metastatic melanoma patients with untreated or treated brain metastases. Patients will receive vemurafenib (RO5185426) at a dose of 960 mg twice daily orally until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

An open-label, single-arm, phase II, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of vemurafenib in metastatic melanoma patients with brain metastases - NA (no short title)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of vemurafenib using Best Overall Response Rate (BORR), as assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST, v1.1) in the brain of metastatic melanoma patients with previously untreated brain metastases;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of vemurafenib using BORR in the brain of patients with previously treated or untreated brain metastases assessed by an IRC using RECIST v1.1 criteria • To evaluate the efficacy of vemurafenib using BORR in the brain of patients with previously-treated brain metastases as assessed by an IRC using RECIST v1.1 criteria • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of vemurafenib in patients with melanoma metastatic to the brain, as assessed by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.0 (NCI CTCAE, v4.0) • To evaluate BORR outside of the brain as assessed by an IRC, duration of response (DOR) in and outside of the brain, progression-free survival (PFS), time to development of new brain metastases in responding patients, and overall survival (OS) in patients with melanoma metastatic to the brain • To evaluate the efficacy of vemurafenib using BORR in the brain and outside of the brain;Primary end point(s): Best Overall Response Rate (BORR) in previously untreated brain metastases (assessed by Independent Review Committee using RECIST) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: June 2012
