Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This open-label single arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Vemurafenib in previously treated patients with metastatic melanoma. Patients will receive oral Vemurafenib \[RG7204; PLEXXIKON: PLX4032\] at a dose of 960 mg b.i.d. continuously until disease progression or withdrawal from study and will be assessed at regular intervals for tumour response and tolerability. Target sample size is \<100 patients.

- Best Overall Response (BOR) Assessed by an Independent Review Committee Using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1)
- timeFrame
- From first treatment through September 27, 2010
- description
- BOR was defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) confirmed per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Patients who never received study treatment and treated patients without any post-baseline tumor assessments were considered as non-responders. CR: Disappearance of all target lesions, all non-target lesions, and no new lesion. Any pathological lymph nodes must have had reduction in the short axis to \<10 mm. PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, no progression in non-target lesion, and no new lesion.
