ACTR-30. UPDATED EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF DABRAFENIB PLUS TRAMETINIB IN PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT/REFRACTORY BRAF V600E–MUTATED HIGH-GRADE GLIOMA (HGG) AND LOW-GRADE GLIOMA (LGG)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract BACKGROUND There is a lack of treatment options for HGG and LGG patients. BRAFV600E mutations are uncommon in glioma, with a poor long-term prognosis. Combined BRAF/MEK inhibition extends progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in BRAF V600E–mutated melanoma, non small-cell lung cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer. METHODS This phase 2, open-label trial (NCT02034110) evaluated dabrafenib (BRAF inhibitor, 150mg BID) plus trametinib (MEK inhibitor, 2mg QD) in patients with BRAF V600E mutations in 9 rare tumor types, including HGG and LGG. Eligible patients had histologically-confirmed recurrent or progressive glioma (LGG:WHO grade 1 or 2; HGG:WHO grade 3 or 4), with HGG patients required to have received radiotherapy and first-line chemotherapy, or concurrent chemoradiation. Treatment continued until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or death. Primary endpoint was investigator-assessed objective response rate (ORR) using RANO criteria. Secondary endpoints included duration of response (DOR), PFS, OS, and safety. RESULTS Interim analysis (IA) #14 (data cutoff: April 2, 2018) reported additional 3 months follow-up, with 49 patients enrolled (HGG, n=39; LGG, n=10) and 3 patients not evaluable for response. In HGG patients, ORR was 27% (10/37; 95%CI: 13.8%-44.1%), including CR (n=1), PR (n=9), and SD (n=11), with 16 patients currently ongoing treatment. In LGG patients, ORR was 56% (5/9; 95%CI: 26.8%-79.3%), including PR (n=5) and SD (n=4), with 6 patients currently ongoing treatment. OS, PFS, and DOR will be presented (IA#15). In HGG patients, adverse events (AEs) included fatigue (33%), headache (31%), rash (28%), and pyrexia (23%); grade 3/4 AEs included neutropenia (8%) and fatigue (5%). In LGG patients, AEs included headache (70%), fatigue, pyrexia (60% each), nausea, and arthralgia (50% each); grade 3/4 AEs included fatigue (20%). CONCLUSIONS Dabrafenib plus trametinib demonstrated promising efficacy in patients with recurrent or refractory BRAF V600E‒mutated HGG or LGG, with manageable AEs and no new safety signals.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
