Frequently asked questions about Dabrafenib twice a day

What is dabrafenib twice a day?

Dabrafenib twice a day is a dosing regimen of dabrafenib given at 150 mg twice daily (BID) to patients with cancer. It is a small molecule drug developed by GSK plc (ticker: GSK). The regimen has been studied in a Phase 1 pharmacokinetics trial in patients with BRAF V600 mutation positive tumors.

What is dabrafenib twice a day used for?

Dabrafenib twice a day is used in cancer, specifically in patients with BRAF V600 mutation positive tumors. The studied population was biomarker selected, meaning treatment is directed at tumors carrying the BRAF V600 mutation. The Phase 1 trial enrolled 23 adult patients aged 18 years and older across the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

What does dabrafenib twice a day target?

Dabrafenib twice a day targets BRAF, a kinase in the MAPK signaling pathway. It acts as an inhibitor of BRAF, and the clinical program is restricted to BRAF V600 mutation positive tumors, so the target mutation is used to select patients. The ChEMBL identifier for dabrafenib is CHEMBL2028663.

Who makes dabrafenib twice a day?

Dabrafenib twice a day is developed by GSK plc, which trades under the ticker GSK. GSK is the sponsor associated with the clinical development of this dabrafenib dosing regimen. The asset is a small molecule in the oncology therapeutic area.

What phase is dabrafenib twice a day in?

Dabrafenib twice a day is in Phase 1 development. The single registered trial, NCT01954043, is a completed Phase 1 pharmacokinetics study, and no active trials of this regimen are listed. It is an investigational dosing regimen studied in a biomarker selected cancer population.

What clinical trials is dabrafenib twice a day in?

Dabrafenib twice a day has been studied in one clinical trial, NCT01954043, titled A Pharmacokinetics (PK) Study of the Effects Rabeprazole and Rifampin on Dabrafenib in Subjects With BRAF V600 Mutation Positive Tumors. It was a completed Phase 1, uncontrolled study that enrolled 23 patients in the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
