Conditions

Metastatic Melanoma, BRAF V600 Mutation Positive

Brief summary

This is a two-part, Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, two-period, one-sequence study to investigate the effect of itraconazole and rifampin on the PK of vemurafenib following multiple 960 milligrams (mg) twice daily (BID) dosing in adult participants with unresectable Stage IIIC or Stage IV metastatic melanoma positive for the BRAF V600 mutation, or other malignant tumor types that harbor a V600-activating mutation of BRAF where the participant has no acceptable standard treatment options.

Interventions

DRUGItraconazole

Itraconazole will be administered as a 200 mg oral solution QD during Part 1 only for 20 consecutive days.

DRUGRifampin

Rifampin will be administered as a 600 mg oral solution QD during Part 2 only for 20 consecutive days.

DRUGVemurafenib

Vemurafenib will be administered in both Part 1 and Part 2 at a dose of 960 mg BID for at least 40 conseutive days.

Inclusion criteria

* Participants with age greater than or equal to (\>=) 18 years with either unresectable Stage IIIC or Stage IV metastatic melanoma positive for the BRAF V600 mutation, or other malignant tumor types that harbor a V600-activating mutation of BRAF * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status 0 to 2 * Life expectancy \>=12 weeks * Adequate hematologic and end organ function obtained within 2 weeks prior to first dose of study drug * Female participants of childbearing potential and male participants with partners of childbearing potential must agree to always use two effective methods of contraception including at least one method with a failure rate of \<1% per year during the course of the study and for at least 6 months after completion of study treatment * Negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to commencement of dosing in women of childbearing potential * Absence of any psychological, familial, sociological, or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule

Exclusion criteria
