Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of masitinib at 7.5 mg/kg/day in the treatment of patients with non-resectable or metastatic stage 3 or stage 4 melanoma carrying a mutation in the juxta membrane domain of c-Kit and who have not previously been treated for melanoma.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Masitinib is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potent activity against the juxta membrane domain of c-Kit. Masitinib is also thought to promote survival via modulation of immunostimulation-mediated anticancer effects and modulation of the tumor microenvironment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of masitinib with respect to dacarbazine in the treatment of non-resectable or metastatic stage 3 or stage 4 melanoma carrying a mutation in the juxta membrane domain of c-Kit. Following a protocol amendment, the dacarbarzine treatment group was closed and recruitment restricted to masitinib treatment of chemo-naïve (first-line) patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patient with histologically or cytologically confirmed non-resectable or metastatic stage 3 (non-resectable IIIB or IIIC, AJCC TNM staging system 7th edition) or stage 4 melanoma
* Patient with detectable c-Kit JM mutation (mutation in exon 9, 11 or 13) confirmed by DNA or RNA sequencing, which is expected to be mainly found after screening of mucosal or acral melanoma or melanoma on skin with chronic sun-induced damages (defined by a microscopically marked elastosis involving the skin surrounding their primary melanoma).
* Patient not previously treated for melanoma (first-line)

Exclusion Criteria

* Pregnant, or nursing female patient
* Patient with active brain metastases.
* Prior treatment with a tyrosine kinase c-Kit inhibitor
