BRAF L597S (gain of function)

BRAF R239Q (unknown)

Relevant Treatment Approaches

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

BRAF R239Q BRAF L597S melanoma sensitive Binimetinib + Encorafenib Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, the addition of Braftovi (encorafenib) to treatment with Mektovi (binimetinib) increased growth inhibition in patient-derived melanoma cells harboring BRAF L597S, as well as BRAF R239Q, in culture, and resulted in tumor shrinkage in 67% of tumors, increased inhibition of ERK phosphorylation, and increased tumor growth delay compared to either agent alone in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 29903896). 29903896
BRAF R239Q BRAF L597S melanoma sensitive Encorafenib Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Braftovi (encorafenib) inhibited ERK activation and proliferation of patient-derived melanoma cells harboring BRAF L597S, as well as BRAF R239Q, in culture, and delayed tumor growth and induced shrinkage in 8% (1/12) of tumors in a melanoma patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 29903896). 29903896
BRAF R239Q BRAF L597S melanoma sensitive Binimetinib Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, Mektovi (binimetinib) inhibited growth of patient-derived melanoma cells harboring BRAF L597S, as well as BRAF R239Q, in culture, and induced tumor shrinkage in 25% (3/12) of tumors and delayed tumor growth in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 29903896). 29903896
BRAF R239Q BRAF L597S melanoma sensitive Dabrafenib + Trametinib Preclinical - Pdx & cell culture Actionable In a preclinical study, the addition of Tafinlar (dabrafenib) to treatment with Mekinist (trametinib) resulted in increased growth inhibition in a patient-derived melanoma cell line harboring BRAF L597S, as well as well as BRAF R239Q, in culture, and resulted in tumor shrinkage in 100% (13/13) of subcutaneous tumors, and decreased growth of intracranial tumors in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 29903896). 29903896
