Binimetinib and Imatinib for Unresectable Stage III-IV KIT-Mutant Melanoma

Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) of binimetinib plus imatinib in participants with advanced KIT-mutant melanoma.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the safety and tolerability of binimetinib plus imatinib in participants with advanced KIT-mutant melanoma.

II. To estimate efficacy and survival parameters in participants with advanced KIT-mutant melanoma treated with binimetinib plus imatinib.

III. To estimate efficacy in participants with advanced KIT-mutant melanoma treated with binimetinib plus imatinib.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To investigate association between changes in drug phosphorylated end products (p-KIT, p-MEK, p-ERK) and clinical response.

II. To investigate association between clinical response and baseline Neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1) and SPRED1 status.

III. To investigate pathologic correlates of acquired resistance. IV. To investigate whether NF1 and SPRED1 loss contribute to acquired resistance.

V. To generate participant-derived xenograft models. VI. To determine the relationship between clinical outcomes and clinicopathologic features including KIT exon mutated, melanoma subtype, melanoma primary site, race/ethnicity, prior treatment history including immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-experienced versus (vs) – naive.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive binimetinib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 and imatinib PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up at day 30 and 100, and then every 3 months.
