Molecular Profiling and Matched Targeted Therapy for Patients With Metastatic Melanoma

Patients with BRAF V600 mutations detected by standard of care tumour testing will be treated with standard approved therapies or on clinical trials.

Patients with tumour found to be non-V600 BRAF, BRAF wildtype and NRAS wildtype melanoma will have tumour tested further using the extended molecular testing platform designed for this project. Patients will first receive standard therapy(ies) for non-V600 BRAF, wildtype and NRAS wildtype melanoma until disease progression or intolerable drug toxicities. Followed by a targeted therapy matched to the genetic aberration detected in their tumour on NGS testing.

Patients with non-V600 BRAF, BRAF wildtype and NRAS wildtype melanoma for whom there is no actionable genetic aberration found on extended molecular testing, may receive trametinib (if not already administered as part of standard care) and/or supportive care.

"Patients mucosal melanoma and any genetic aberration on NGS testing may receive ribociclib + trametinib initially. After failure of trametinib and ribociclib, actionable genetic aberrations from the NGS testing will be reviewed for the opportunity to use a further targeted therapy off label.~Patients with an NRAS mutation on standard of care tumour testing will also receive ribociclib + trametinib."

Patients with non-V600 BRAF, BRAF wildtype and NRAS wildtype melanoma may have an actionable aberration(s) for which there is no current study-specific drug supply. In this scenario, access will be sought for compassionate use of the off label use of the relevant regulatory approved targeted therapy
