Patient case: 54-year-old female with lung adenocarcinoma; genetic feature: SND1-BRAF fusion

Clinical trial: Determination of the Absolute Bioavailability of GSK2118436 Following a Single Oral Dose Co-Administered With an Intravenous Radiolabelled Microtracer of GSK2118436 in Subjects With BRAF Mutant Solid Tumors

Summary: GSK2118436 is an orally administered, potent and selective small molecule BRAF inhibitor that is currently being developed for the treatment of BRAF mutation-positive tumors. This is an open-label, non-randomized study designed to determine the absolute bioavailability of an oral dose of 150 mg of GSK2118436 co-administered with an intravenous 50 microgram dose of [14C]GSK2118436 in subjects with BRAF mutant solid tumors. Pharmacokinetic samples will be obtained up to 72 hours post-dose. Safety assessments will be performed throughout the study. After completing all assessments, eligible subjects may transition to BRF114144, an open-label, rollover study of GSK2118436 to continue treatment.

  -  Current use of a prohibited medication or requires any of these medications during the study;
  -  Consumption of red wine, Seville oranges, grapefruit or grapefruit juice from 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication;

  -  Presence of active gastrointestinal disease or other condition (e.g., small bowel or large bowel resection) that will interfere significantly with the absorption of drugs. If clarification is needed as to whether a condition will significantly affect absorption of drugs, contact the GSK medical monitor for permission to enrol the subject;
  -  A history of known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection (subjects with documented laboratory evidence of HBV clearance may be enrolled);
  -  Presence of invasive malignancy other than one of the malignancies covered under Inclusion Criterion; subjects with a history of another malignancy that has been definitively treated can be enrolled;
  -  Subjects with brain metastases are excluded if their brain metastases are either:
  Symptomatic Treated (surgery, radiation therapy), but not clinically and radiographically stable for a period of at least one month prior to study entry, or Asymptomatic and untreated but > 1 cm in the longest dimension Exception: Subjects with small (≤ 1 cm in the longest dimension), asymptomatic brain metastases that do not need immediate local therapy can be enrolled. Subjects on a stable dose of corticosteroids for more than one month, or those who have been off corticosteroids for at least 2 weeks can be enrolled. Subjects must also be off of enzyme-inducing anticonvulsants for more than 4 weeks;
  -  Corrected QT (QTc) interval >/= 480 msecs;
  -  History of acute coronary syndromes (including unstable angina), coronary angioplasty, or stenting within the past 24 weeks;

  -  Known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to the study drugs, or excipients (note: to date there are no known drugs chemically related to GSK2118436 which are approved by the FDA);
  -  Uncontrolled medical conditions (e.g., diabetes mellitus, hypertension), psychological, familial, sociological, or geographical conditions that do not permit compliance with the protocol; or history of alcohol or drug abuse within 6 months prior to screening; or unwillingness or inability to follow the procedures required in the protocol;
