---|---|---|---|---|
Dabrafenib | Tafinlar | GSK2118436 | BRAF Inhibitor 21 | Tafinlar (dabrafenib) inhibits the activity of BRAF, including V600E, which results in the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation (PMID: 22735384). Tafinlar (dabrafenib) is FDA approved for BRAF V600E/- positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma, and in combination with Mekinist (trametinib) for BRAF V600E/K-mutant melanoma, BRAF V600E-mutant non-small cell lung cancer, BRAF V600E-mutant anaplastic thyroid cancer, and for adult and pediatric patients of 6 years or older with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors harboring BRAF V600E (FDA.gov). |
Pembrolizumab | Keytruda | MK-3475 | Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor 151 PD-L1/PD-1 antibody 98 | Keytruda (pembrolizumab) is an antibody against PD-1 that activates T-cell mediated anti-tumor immune response (PMID: 25977344). Keytruda (pembrolizumab) is approved in melanoma, SCLC, HNSCC, classical Hodgkin Lymphoma, primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma, urothelial carcinoma, HCC, Merkel cell carcinoma, NMIBC, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, MSI-H or dMMR or TMB high advanced solid tumors, NSCLC and CD274 (PD-L1)-expressing NSCLC, gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma, squamous esophageal carcinoma, cervical cancer, and triple-negative breast cancer, in combination with pemetrexed and platinum in non-squamous NSCLC with no EGFR or ALK mutations, with carboplatin and paclitaxel/nab-paclitaxel in squamous NSCLC, with axitinib or lenvatinib in RCC, with Lenvatinib in endometrial carcinoma that is not MSI-H or dMMR, in combination with platinum and fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy for patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal carcinoma, in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab), fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy for first-line treatment of patients with HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, and in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab, for patients with CD274 (PD-L1)-expressing (CPS>=1) cervical cancer (FDA.gov). |
Trametinib | Mekinist | GSK1120212 | MEK inhibitor (Pan) 23 MEK1 Inhibitor 22 MEK2 Inhibitor 20 | Mekinist (trametinib) inhibits MEK 1 and 2, which potentially leads to reduced tumor cell proliferation (PMID: 27956260). Mekinist (trametinib) is FDA approved for melanoma patients harboring BRAF V600E or BRAF V600K mutations, and in combination with Tafinlar (dabrafenib) for BRAF V600E/K-mutant melanoma, BRAF V600E- mutant non-small cell lung cancer, BRAF V600E-mutant anaplastic thyroid cancer, and for adult and pediatric patients of 6 years or older with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors harboring BRAF V600E (FDA.gov). |

BRAF V600K | melanoma | predicted - sensitive | Dabrafenib + Pembrolizumab + Trametinib | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (IMPemBra), Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in combination with short-term or intermittent Tafinlar (dabrafenib) plus Mekinist (trametinib) resulted in improved median progression-free survival compared to Keytruda (pembrolizumab) monotherapy (27.0 vs 10.6 mo, p=0.13) in patients with treatment-naive advanced melanoma harboring BRAF V600E (n=26) or V600K (n=6) mutations (J Clin Oncol 38: 2020 (suppl; abstr 10021); NCT02625337). | detail... |
