New hope for Tough-to-Treat skin cancer: trial tests Triple-Drug attack

NCT ID NCT04557956

Summary

This study is testing a new three-drug combination for people with advanced melanoma that has a specific genetic change (BRAF mutation) and has gotten worse despite standard targeted therapy. The goal is to see if adding a drug called tazemetostat to two existing drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) can better control the cancer's growth. The study will first find the safest dose and then see if this combination helps patients live longer without their cancer progressing.
