Study #2014-0409
Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Dabrafenib and Trametinib in Patients with Clinical Stage III Melanoma (Combi-Neo)
MD Anderson Study Status
Not Accepting
Treatment Agent
Dabrafenib, Trametinib
Description
This is a single arm phase II trial focused on how dabrafenib and trametinib before and after surgery works in treating patients with stage IIIB-C melanoma that has a specific mutation in the BRAF gene. Dabrafenib and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving dabrafenib and trametinib before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving dabrafenib and trametinib after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells.
