Clinical trials are an important way to improve treatment for people with cancer. While most are continuing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the period of time that clinical trials are available and recruiting may change quickly. If you would like to get involved in a clinical trial, speak to your treatment team or the health service where the clinical trial is being undertaken, to confirm it is open and appropriate for you. For cancer information and support, call Cancer Council's experienced cancer nurses on 13 11 20 Monday to Friday from 9am-5pm.

Trial Overview Read MoreRead more

This phase II trial is evaluating how safe and effective a combination of two targeted therapies (vemurafenib and cobimetinib) are in people with metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer and other solid cancers with BRAF V600 mutations.
 

This trial is treating patients with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer and solid cancers.

This is a systemic therapy trial.

You may be able to join this trial if:

  • You are able to swallow medication by mouth.
  • You have been diagnosed with cancer, but have not received any treatment.
  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body.
  • Your cancer has spread to other parts of the body.

You may be excluded from this trial if:

  • You have a certain disease or psychological condition.
  • You have been diagnosed with a prior or secondary type of cancer.
  • You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.

Clinical trials have complex eligibility criteria - talk to your doctor about your interest in this trial.

Summary

This is a substudy of the Cancer Molecular Screening and Therapeutic (MoST) Program (ACTRN12616000908437). In this randomised trial, participants will receive 2 drugs, vemurafenib and cobimetinib. Both drugs will be administered orally, at a dose of 960mg twice daily (days 1 to 28 in a 28-day cycle) for vemurafenib and 60mg daily (days 1-21 in a 28-day cycle) for cobimetinib. Participants will continue to receive treatment until toxicity or disease progression. Dosages may be reduced if participants experience toxicity.
