109The primary objective of this FIH study is to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of PLX4032 in patients with solid tumors. The secondary objective is to assess the pharmacodynamic activity in paired biopsy specimens obtained from patients with malignant melanoma who have the V600E BRAF oncogenic mutation.
Activating mutations of the BRAF gene have been observed in a variety of cancers, including 55-68% of malignant melanomas. In general, oncogenic mutations of BRAF correlate with a poor outcome. PLX4032 is a compound that selectively inhibits oncogenic B-Raf kinase.
Two extension cohorts of patients with confirmed V600E mutations will be recruited, consisting of advanced melanoma and metastatic colorectal carcinoma.
Oral capsules administered BID
Inclusion Criteria: Solid tumors confirmed histologically whose tumors are refractory to standard therapy, or for whom standard or curative therapy does not exist Patients from whom paired melanoma biopsies are planned must have a V600E+ BRAF mutation confirmed prior to the administration of PLX4032 Previous chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation therapy must have been completed at least 2 weeks prior to starting PLX4032 therapy, and all associated toxicity must be resolved prior to administration of PLX4032 Patients in the Extension cohorts (melanoma or adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum) must have both a V600E+ BRAF mutation and measurable disease (by RECIST V 1.0 criteria) prior to the administration of PLX4032. All patients enrolled must provide archival or fresh melanoma tumor biopsy for confirmation of V600E+ BRAF mutation status by TaqMan assay ECOG performance status 0 or 1 Life expectancy ≥ 3 months Adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function Exclusion Criteria: Brain metastases that are progressing or have been documented to be stable for less than 3 months, or for which systemic corticosteroids are required Investigational drug use within 28 days of the first dose of PLX4032 Uncontrolled intercurrent illness Refractory nausea and vomiting, malabsorption, or significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption

AUC (0-8 hour) was defined as the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time equals zero (0) to 8 hours post-dose. AUC (0-24 hour) was defined as the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time equals 0 to 24 hours post-dose. AUC (0-8 hour) and AUC (0-24 hour) were computed using the linear trapezoidal rule.

BOR of confirmed /unconfirmed (total) response was defined as CR or PR recorded from baseline until disease progression/recurrence according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) v 1.0 criteria. For target lesions (TLs), CR was defined as the disappearance of all TLs, and PR was defined as at least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of longest diameters of the TLs, taking as a reference the baseline (BL) sum of longest diameters. For non-target lesions (NTLs), CR was defined as the disappearance of all NTLs and normalization of tumor marker levels. Confirmed responses were those which were confirmed by repeat assessments performed no less than four weeks after the criteria for response are first met. Percentage of participants with best overall response rate was calculated as the (number of participants with CR or PR) divided by (total number of participants in the cohort), and then multiplied by 100. The 95% Cl was determined using the Pearson-Clopper method.

Duration of response for participants with confirmed CR or PR was the period of time measured between the date that the criteria for objective CR or PR (whichever status was recorded first) was met, and the first date that recurrent or PD was objectively documented (or death if before progression). PD was at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameters of TLs taking as reference the smallest sum of longest diameters recorded since the baseline measurements, or the appearance of one or more new lesion(s). In the event of no disease progression or documented death prior to study termination, analysis cutoff, or initiation of confounding anticancer therapy, duration of response was censored at the date of the last evaluable tumor assessment.
PFS was the period of time measured from the date of initiation of therapy to the date of the appearance of new metastatic lesions, objective tumor progression, or death if before progression. PD was defined according to the RECIST criteria (v 1.0) as increase by at least 20% in the sum of the longest diameters of each TL, taking as a reference the smallest sum of the longest diameters, reported since the start of treatment, or appearance of one or more new lesions. For Non-TLs, PD was defined as the appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-TLs.

In the event of no disease progression or documented death prior to study termination, analysis cutoff, or start of confounding anticancer therapy, PFS was censored at the date of the last evaluable tumor assessment.
OS was the period of time measured from the date of initiation of therapy to the date of the death. In the event of no death prior to study termination or analysis data cutoff, OS was censored at the last known date that the patient was alive as documented on the follow-up case report form. If this date was not available, then the last known alive date from the database was used.
Time to CR or PR was defined as the interval between the date of the first treatment to the date of the first documentation of confirmed CR or PR whichever occurred first, and not the date of confirmation at the subsequent tumor assessment. Time to response = Date of first response - initial dose date + 1.
AUC (0-8 hour) was defined as the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time equals 0 to 8 hours post-dose. AUC (0-24 hour) was defined as the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time equals 0 to 24 hours post-dose. AUC (0-8 hour) and AUC (0-24 hour) were computed using the linear trapezoidal rule.
