A second BRAF and MEK inhibitor pair, encorafenib plus binimetinib, shrank tumours in three quarters of untreated and nearly half of previously treated patients with BRAF V600E lung cancer, giving a better-tolerated alternative to dabrafenib-trametinib.
Phase 2 study of 98 patients with BRAF V600E-mutant metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer, 59 treatment-naive and 39 previously treated, given encorafenib plus binimetinib.
Objective response was 75 percent in treatment-naive and 46 percent in previously treated patients, with median duration of response not reached and 16.7 months respectively; pyrexia was less common than with dabrafenib-trametinib.
Encorafenib-binimetinib is approved for BRAF V600E lung cancer and offers a second targeted option, particularly for patients troubled by fever on dabrafenib-trametinib.
