Abstract Text | Findings from a phase I/II study indicate a higher response rate among patients with BRAF-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer treated with an EGFR inhibitor alongside dual, as opposed to single-level, MAPK blockade. Panitumumab combined with trametinib and dabrafenib only modestly increased median progression-free survival, however; a short-lived decrease in responders' BRAF V600E mutant allele fraction and the emergence of RAS mutations may have been contributing factors. |

BRAF mutant | colorectal cancer | predicted - sensitive | Dabrafenib + Panitumumab + Trametinib | Phase Ib/II | Actionable | In a Phase I/II trial, treatment with the triple combination of Tafinlar (dabrafenib), Mekinist (trametinib), and Vectibix (panitumumab) resulted in an objective response rate (ORR) of 21% and median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 4.2 mo, compared with 0% ORR and mPFS of 2.6 mo with Mekinist (trametinib) plus Vectibix (panitumumab), and 10% ORR and mPFS of 3.5 mo with Tafinlar (dabrafenib) plus Vectibix (panitumumab) in patients with BRAF-mutant colorectal cancer (PMID: 27770002; NCT01750918). | 27770002 |
