Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Phase 1 - To establish the maximum tolerated dose of GSK1120212 in combination with paclitaxel in the treatment of patients with advanced melanoma. Phase 2 - To compare the efficacy of GSK1120212 in combination with paclitaxel, compared with paclitaxel alone in the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma. ; Secondary Objective: To further assess the safety and efficacy of GSK1120212 in combination with paclitaxel, compared with paclitaxel alone in the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma. To assess the impact of tumour characteristics on response to paclitaxel therapy with or without GSK1120212. ; Primary end point(s): Phase 1 component: Maximum tolerated dose of GSK1120212 in combination with paclitaxel Phase 2 component: Progression free survival | — |
