Gene Variant Descriptions | BRAF Class 3 variants are BRAF variants that demonstrate low or no BRAF kinase activity, but activate downstream signaling through CRAF activation, in a dimer-dependent, RAS-dependent manner (PMID: 28783719). |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
BRAF class 3 | melanoma | predicted - sensitive | Exarafenib | Preclinical - Cell line xenograft | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Exarafenib (KIN-2787) treatment led to inhibition of tumor growth in a melanoma cell line xenograft model harboring a BRAF class 3 mutation (J of Clin Oncol 39, no. 15_suppl (May 20, 2021) 3116-3116). | detail... |
BRAF class 3 | Advanced Solid Tumor | predicted - sensitive | BDTX-4933 | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, BDTX-4933 inhibited proliferation of cells expressing a BRAF class 3 mutation in culture (Eur J Cancer (2022), Vol 174, Supplement 1: S86). | detail... |
BRAF class 3 | Advanced Solid Tumor | predicted - sensitive | Exarafenib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a Phase I trial, Exarafenib (KIN-2787) was tolerated and resulted in a partial response in 17.6% (6/34) and stable disease in 23.5% (8/34) of patients with BRAF-driven advanced solid tumors or NRAS-driven melanoma, including a partial response in 1 patient harboring a BRAF class 3 mutation (Cancer Res (2023) 83 (8_Supplement): CT032; NCT04913285). | detail... |
BRAF class 3 | Advanced Solid Tumor | predicted - sensitive | DCC-3084 | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, DCC-3084 inhibited downstream signaling and proliferation in cells expressing a BRAF class 3 mutation in culture (Cancer Res (2023) 83 (7_Supplement): 4045). | detail... |
BRAF class 3 | Advanced Solid Tumor | no benefit | Belvarafenib | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (TAPISTRY), Belvarafenib (HM95573) treatment did not result in any confirmed objective responses in patients with advanced solid tumors harboring BRAF class III alterations, with a clinical benefit rate of 8.7% (2/23), 34.8% (8/23) with stable disease, a median progression-free survival of 2.0 months, and a median overall survival of 8.2 months (Ann Oncol (2024) 35 (Suppl_2): S498-S499; NCT04589845). | detail... |
