BRAF V600E | glioblastoma | sensitive | Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) combination treatment resulted in significant clinical improvement in a patient with epithelioid glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E, however, her disease progressed after 3 months of therapy (PMID: 31217909). | 31217909 |
BRAF V600E | glioblastoma | sensitive | Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Guideline | Actionable | Combination of Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) is included in guidelines for patients with recurrent glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E (NCCN.org). | detail... |
BRAF V600E | glioblastoma | sensitive | Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, combination therapy of Tafinlar (dabrafenib) and Mekinist (trametinib) resulted in improved clinical symptoms in a patient with epithelioid glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E, and treatment of the patient's cells resulted in decreased cell viability, reduced phosphorylation of Mek and Erk, increased apoptotic activity compared to either agent alone, and cell cycle arrest in culture, and led to tumor growth suppression in the patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model (PMID: 31345255). | 31345255 |
BRAF V600E | glioblastoma | sensitive | Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) combination treatment resulted in a complete resolution of symptoms and radiographic partial response after the first treatment in a patient with glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E whose disease progressed on PLX8394 treatment, and a complete response after 11 months of treatment, CDKN2A/B loss and CHEK2 T367fs were also identified in the tumor (PMID: 32923904). | 32923904 |
BRAF V600E | glioblastoma | sensitive | Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, an epithelioid glioblastoma patient harboring BRAF V600E treated with Mekinist (trametinib) and Tafinlar (dabrafenib) combination therapy resulted in stable disease, and the patient continued to demonstrate stable disease at least 16 months after initiation of therapy (PMID: 29632053). | 29632053 |
BRAF V600E | glioblastoma | sensitive | Dabrafenib + Trametinib | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (ROAR), Tafinlar (dabrafenib) and Mekinist (trametinib) combination treatment resulted in an objective response in 32% (10/31, 2 complete responses, 8 partial responses) and stable disease in 19% (6/31) of patients with glioblastoma harboring BRAF V600E (PMID: 34838156; NCT02034110). | 34838156 |
