Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Part 1 To evaluate BGB324 safety in combination with dabrafenib/trametinib and to select the dose level of BGB324 for combination treatment with dabrafenib/trametinib in patients with advanced melanoma. Part 2 To evaluate safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab and dabrafenib/trametinib in combination with BGB324 compared to pembrolizumab and dabrafenib/trametinib alone as first line treatment in patients with advanced melanoma. Part 3 To explore safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab or dabrafenib/trametinib in combination with BGB324 and pembrolizumab or dabrafenib/trametinib alone as second line treatment in BRAF+ patients with advanced melanoma failing first line treatment in Part 2 of the study. ;Secondary Objective: Part 1 and 2: - PK of BGB324 in combination with pembrolizumab and dabrafenib/trametinib compared the PK of BGB324 monotherapy using data from previous clinical studies with BGB324 - PK of dabrafenib in combination With BGB324 compared to PK for dabrafenib administered in dabrafenib/trametinib combination (historical data) - long term combined safety and efficacy profile of combination treatment of BGB324 and standard therapy to standard treatment alone Part 3: To evaluate safety and efficacy of BGB324 in combination with pembrolizumab or dabrafenib/trametinib as second line treatment in melanoma patients failing first line treatment with dabrafenib/trametinib or pembrolizumab respectively in combination with BGB324 as first line treatment in patients BRAF+ at randomisation Exploratory - evaluate the predictive value of candidate biomarkers in blood, urine or tissue - assess effects of BGB324 on biological markers - Health-related Quality of Life of melanoma patients ;Primary end point(s): Primary Efficacy Endpoint Objective Response Rate (ORR) assessed according to RECIST Version 1.1 ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Primary Efficacy Endpoint Objective Response Rate (ORR) assessed according to RECIST Version 1.1

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary Efficacy Endpoints • Progression Free Survival (PFS) • Duration of response- defined as time from objective response until disease progression (clinical or RECIST confirmed) • Overall Survival (OS) Exploratory Efficacy Endpoints • ORR assessed according to irRC • Biomarkers • HRQoL using the EuroQoL instrument and European Organisation for Research and Treatment Cancer (EORTC) quality of life questionnaire core (QLQ-C30) Pharmacokinetic Endpoints Plasma concentrations of BGB324 and dabrafenib, Area Under the Curve within a dosing interval (AUC0-T) and Average Concentration (Cav) estimated at steady state. Safety Endpoints Safety endpoints are based on continuous monitoring of adverse events and other safety parameters (laboratory safety assessments, vital signs 12-lead ECGs, physical examination and skin examination and performance status using the ECOG score). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: ongoing evaluation
