New hope for melanoma: drug cocktail battle for BRAF patients after first treatment fails

NCT ID NCT05926960

First seen Jan 08, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study compares two combinations of drugs for people with advanced melanoma that has a specific genetic change (BRAF V600E/K) and has worsened after prior anti-PD-1 therapy. Participants receive either a three-drug combo (encorafenib, binimetinib, and pembrolizumab) or a two-drug combo (nivolumab and ipilimumab). The goal is to see which combination works better at shrinking tumors and controlling the disease.
