Phase 1/2 Study Epigenetic Modification of BRAF-mutated Metastatic Melanoma: Treatment of a Resistant Disease Using Decitabine Combined With Vemurafenib Plus Cobimetinib
The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of Vemurafenib with Decitabine plus
Cobimetinib improves the low therapy response rate in subjects with malignant melanoma.
Cobimetinib improves the low therapy response rate in subjects with malignant melanoma.
The primary objective of the Phase I portion of this study is to evaluate the safety and
tolerability of the proposed schedule of decitabine and Vemurafenib plus Cobimetinib in the
treatment of metastatic melanoma.
tolerability of the proposed schedule of decitabine and Vemurafenib plus Cobimetinib in the
treatment of metastatic melanoma.
