Five-year overall survival (OS) in COLUMBUS: A randomized phase 3 trial of encorafenib plus binimetinib versus vemurafenib or encorafenib in patients (pts) with BRAF V600-mutant melanoma.
9507 Background: Combined BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy has demonstrated benefits on progression-free survival (PFS) and OS and is standard of care for the treatment of advanced BRAF V600-mutant melanoma. Here we report a 5-year update from the COLUMBUS trial. Methods: In Part 1 of COLUMBUS, 577 pts with advanced/metastatic BRAF V600-mutant melanoma, untreated or progressed after first-line immunotherapy, were randomized 1:1:1 to encorafenib 450 mg QD + binimetinib 45 mg BID (COMBO450), encorafenib 300 mg QD (ENCO300), or vemurafenib 960 mg BID (VEM). An updated analysis including PFS, OS, objective response rate (ORR; by blinded independent central review), and safety was conducted after min…
