Trial Outcomes & Findings for Encorafenib and Binimetinib Before Local Treatment in Patients With BRAF Mutant Melanoma Metastatic to the Brain (NCT NCT03898908)

NCT ID: NCT03898908

Last Updated: 2025-05-21

Results Overview

iORR calculated as the proportion of patient with a best overall intracranial response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) before local treatment according to modified RECIST 1.1. Modified RECIST 1.1 consists of: Up to 5 intracranial lesions could be selected as target lesions Target lesions might have a longest diameter ≥ 5 mm when evaluated by contrast-enhanced MRI This endpoint was also independently reported in patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic brain metastasis.

Participant Flow

the initial sample size was set at 48 patients, to ensure obtaining 38 evaluable patients. The cohort of symptomatic patients was exploratory and no formal sample calculation was performed, anticipating the inclusion of up to 15 patients.The trial was amended and patients were included irrespective of symptomatology.

Encorafenib - Orally, 75 mg and 50 mg capsules Binimetinib - Orally, 15 mg tablets In each cohort, patients will be treated with encorafenib 450 mg once daily and binimetinib 45 mg twice daily until PD or death. encorafenib: Encorafenib 75mg and 50mg (capsules) for a 450mg daily for oral administration during 56 days and after local radiation treatment. If no progression of disease progression (PD) is reported, treatment will continue until PD, unacceptable toxicity or death. binimetinib: Binimetinib 15mg (tablets) for a 45mg/12 hours for oral administration during 56 days and after local radiation treatment. Whole brain radiation therapy: The whole brain planning target volume (PTV) will receive 30 Gy in 10 fractions. Treatment will be delivered once daily, 5 fractions per week, over 2 to 2.5 weeks. Radiosurgery/stereotactic radiosurgery: Dose selection must be based on previously published Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) data, with dose modification left up to the treating physician. The total dose will depend on the size of the metastatic lesion(s) and proximity to critical structures. Suggested doses are as follow: 1 fraction x 15-25 Gy; 3 fractions x 9-11 Gy; 5 fractions x 6-7 Gy; or 6 fractions x 5-6 Gy. For GTV \> 20 mm hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy could be preferred. Treatment will be delivered once daily, alternate-day, 3 fractions per week.

Timeframe: 24 months after start of treatment

Population: The endpoint is calculated for the full dataset and also in two subgroups with symptomatic or asymptomatic brain metastasis, respectively.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Throughout the study period, up to approximately 24 months

Defined as the time from the date of inclusion to the date of the first documented intracranial disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS was determined based on tumor assessment (modified RECIST version 1.1 criteria). The local Investigator's assessments was used for analyses. Those patients who were alive and had not progressed at the last follow-up, date of progression was censored at the date of the last follow-up. Patients with no additional image test other than baseline were censored the day after inclusion.

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Population: Only patients who completed the quality of life questionnaires

The EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire is validated for cancer. It is composed of 30 questions or items that assess QoL. The questionnaire is structured in 5 functional scales physical functioning, daily activities, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning and social functioning), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain and nausea, vomiting), 1 global health status scale, and 6 independent items (dyspnea, insomnia, anorexia, constipation, diarrhea and economic impact). Values between 1 and 4 (1: not at all, 2: a little, 3: quite, 4: a lot) are assigned according to the patient's responses to the item, only in items 29 and 30 are they evaluated with a score of 1 to 7 (1: dreadful, 7: excellent). The scores obtained are standardized and a score between 0 and 100 is obtained, which determines the level of impact of the cancer on the patient on each of the scales. Higher values indicate better performance

The EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire is validated for cancer. It is composed of 30 questions or items that assess QoL. The questionnaire is structured in 5 functional scales physical functioning, daily activities, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning and social functioning), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain and nausea, vomiting), 1 global health status scale, and 6 independent items (dyspnea, insomnia, anorexia, constipation, diarrhea and economic impact). Values between 1 and 4 (1: not at all, 2: a little, 3: quite, 4: a lot) are assigned according to the patient's responses to the item, only in items 29 and 30 are they evaluated with a score of 1 to 7 (1: dreadful, 7: excellent). The scores obtained are standardized and a score between 0 and 100 is obtained, which determines the level of impact of the cancer on the patient on each of the scales. Higher values indicate better performance

Encorafenib - Orally, 75 mg and 50 mg capsules Binimetinib - Orally, 15 mg tablets In each cohort, patients will be treated with encorafenib 450 mg once daily and binimetinib 45 mg twice daily until PD or death. encorafenib: Encorafenib 75mg and 50mg (capsules) for a 450mg daily for oral administration during 56 days and after local radiation treatment. If no progression of disease progression (PD) is reported, treatment will continue until PD, unacceptable toxicity or death. binimetinib: Binimetinib 15mg (tablets) for a 45mg/12 hours for oral administration during 56 days and after local radiation treatment. Whole brain radiation therapy: The whole brain planning target volume (PTV) will receive 30 Gy in 10 fractions. Treatment will be delivered once daily, 5 fractions per week, over 2 to 2.5 weeks. Radiosurgery/stereotactic radiosurgery: Dose selection must be based on previously published Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) data, with dose modification left up to the treating physician. The total dose will depend on the size of the metastatic lesion(s) and proximity to critical structures. Suggested doses are as follow: 1 fraction x 15-25 Gy; 3 fractions x 9-11 Gy; 5 fractions x 6-7 Gy; or 6 fractions x 5-6 Gy. For GTV \> 20 mm hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy could be preferred. Treatment will be delivered once daily, alternate-day, 3 fractions per week.
