A Study of the Effect of Food on the Pharmacokinetics of Single Dose RO5185426 And the Safety And Efficacy of Continuous Administration in Patients With BRAF V600E Mutation-Positive Metastatic Melanoma

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2013-05-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This randomized, open-label, two period crossover study will evaluate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of RO5185426 and the efficacy and safety of continuous administration in patients with BRAF V600E mutation-positive metastatic melanoma. Patients will be randomized to receive in a crossover design single oral doses of RO5185426 with or without food, with a 10-day washout period between doses. Following the crossover periods, patients will receive RO5185426 orally twice daily on a continuous basis until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
