BRAF K601E | Advanced Solid Tumor | conflicting | Vemurafenib | Clinical Study - Cohort | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (MyPathway), Zelboraf (vemurafenib) treatment resulted in an objective response in only 4% (1/23) of patient with advanced solid tumors harboring non-V600 BRAF mutations, 6 of the non-responding patients harbored BRAF K601E (PMID: 29320312; NCT02091141). | 29320312 |
BRAF K601E | Advanced Solid Tumor | conflicting | Vemurafenib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Zelboraf (vemurafenib) did not inhibit MEK and ERK activation in transformed cells over expressing the constitutively dimerized BRAF K601E (PMID: 26343582). | 26343582 |
BRAF K601E | Advanced Solid Tumor | conflicting | Vemurafenib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment of cells expressing BRAF K601E with the BRAF inhibitor, Zelboraf (vemurafenib), decreased activation of MEK and ERK (PMID: 22798288). | 22798288 |
