A Phase III, Randomised, Open-label Study Comparing the Combination of the BRAF Inhibitor, Dabrafenib and the MEK Inhibitor, Trametinib to the BRAF Inhibitor Vemurafenib in Subjects With Unresectable (Stage IIIc) or Metastatic (Stage IV) BRAF V600E/K Mutation Positive Cutaneous Melanoma
This is a two-arm, open-label, randomised, Phase III study comparing dabrafenib (GSK2118436)
and trametinib (GSK1120212) combination therapy to vemurafenib. Subjects with histologically
confirmed cutaneous melanoma that is either stage IIIc (unresectable) or stage IV, and BRAF
V600E/K mutation positive will be screened for eligibility. Subjects who have had prior
systemic anti-cancer treatment in the advanced or metastatic setting will not be eligible
although prior systemic treatment in the adjuvant setting will be allowed. Approximately 694
subjects will be randomised 1:1 (combination therapy:vemurafenib). The primary endpoint is
overall survival (OS) for subjects receiving the combination therapy compared with those
receiving vemurafenib.

stereotactic radiosurgery and lesions, if still present, are confirmed stable for >=
12 weeks prior to randomisation or if no longer present are confirmed no evidence of
disease for >= 12 weeks, and are asymptomatic with no corticosteroid requirements for
>= 4 weeks prior to randomisation, and no enzyme inducing anticonvulsants for >= 4
weeks prior to randomisation
- History or evidence of cardiovascular risk (LVEF < LLN; QTcB >= 480 msec; blood
pressure or systolic >=140 mmHg or diastolic >= 90 mmHg which cannot be controlled by
anti-hypertensive therapy)
- History or current evidence/risk of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or central serous
