Palbociclib | Ibrance | PD0332991|PD-0332991 | CDK4/6 Inhibitor 14 | Ibrance (palbociclib) is a selective inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and 6 (CDK6) (PMID: 19874578). Ibrance (palbociclib) is approved in combination with an aromatase inhibitor in postmenopausal patients with ER-positive, ERBB2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer, and in combination with Faslodex (fulvestrant) in patients with ER-positive, ERBB2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer (FDA.gov). |
Trametinib | Mekinist | GSK1120212 | MEK inhibitor (Pan) 26 MEK1 Inhibitor 26 MEK2 Inhibitor 24 | Mekinist (trametinib) inhibits MEK 1 and 2, which potentially leads to reduced tumor cell proliferation (PMID: 27956260). Mekinist (trametinib) is FDA approved for melanoma patients harboring BRAF V600E or BRAF V600K mutations, and in combination with Tafinlar (dabrafenib) for BRAF V600E/K-mutant melanoma, BRAF V600E- mutant non-small cell lung cancer, BRAF V600E-mutant anaplastic thyroid cancer, for adult and pediatric patients of 6 years or older with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors harboring BRAF V600E, and for pediatric patients of 1 year or older with low-grade glioma harboring BRAF V600E (FDA.gov). |

BRAF V600E CDKN2A loss NRAS G12V | melanoma | predicted - sensitive | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Pdx | Actionable | In a preclinical study, combination treatment with Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) led to inhibition of tumor growth in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model of melanoma harboring BRAF V600E, NRAS G12V, and CDKN2A copy number loss (PMID: 34376578). | 34376578 |
BRAF mut RB1 loss | melanoma | decreased response | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, a melanoma cell line with a BRAF mutation and loss of RB1 demonstrated minimal sensitivity when treated with the combination of Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) in culture (PMID: 27488531). | 27488531 |
NRAS wild-type | melanoma | decreased response | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, an NRAS wild-type melanoma cell line demonstrated minimal sensitivity when treated with the combination of Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) in culture (PMID: 27488531). | 27488531 |
BRAF wild-type | melanoma | decreased response | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, a BRAF wild-type melanoma cell line demonstrated minimal sensitivity when treated with the combination of Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) in culture (PMID: 27488531). | 27488531 |
NRAS mut PIK3CA E545K | melanoma | predicted - resistant | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, four of four NRAS-mutant melanoma cell lines expressing PIK3CA E545K were resistant to the combination treatment of Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) in culture (PMID: 30819666). | 30819666 |

NRAS Q61K | colorectal cancer | sensitive | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Pdx | Actionable | In a preclinical study, combination treatment with Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) led to greater inhibition of tumor growth than either agent alone in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model of colorectal cancer harboring NRAS Q61K (PMID: 35913398). | 35913398 |
NRAS mutant | melanoma | predicted - sensitive | Palbociclib + Trametinib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, melanoma cell lines harboring an NRAS mutation were sensitive to the combination therapy of Ibrance (palbociclib) and Mekinist (trametinib) in culture, demonstrating reduced cell viability, colony formation, and pathway activity, and increased cell cycle arrest (PMID: 30819666). | 30819666 |
