Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall Response Rate (ORR)
From the start of study treatment to the last dose of study treatment, up to 20 months

To assess the efficacy of cobimetinib in patients with newly diagnosed and HMA- refractory chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of patients achieving complete remission, complete cytogenetic remission, partial remission, marrow response, and clinical benefit according to the 2015 MDS/MPN-IWG criteria. This was assessed from the dose of study medication to the decision to end treatment, up to 20 months.

Intracranial Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Baseline up to cut of date (approximately 2.5 years)

Intracranial ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with either a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR) in their intracranial disease based on two consecutive assessments \>= 4 weeks apart. Disease status for this endpoint will be determined by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) in accordance with Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) with modified measurability definition for intracranial lesions (\>= 0.5 cm by MRI) and allowing up to five intracranial target lesions. CR is defined as disappearance of all lesions. PR is defined as \>=30% decrease in tumor burden, in the absence of CR. The primary endpoint is analyzed on the BRAFV600 mutation positive (Cohort 2) only as the Sponsor had discontinued enrolment into Cohort 1. Data for Cohort 1 was not collected nor analyzed for this outcome measure.

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Up to approximately 31 months

Objective response rate was defined as the percentage of participants with a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR) on two consecutive tumor assessments ≥4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigators using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). CR was defined as disappearance of all lesions. PR was defined as ≥30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, in the absence of CR, new lesions, and unequivocal progression in non-target lesions.

The efficacy profiles of Cobimetinib plus Niraparib and Cobimetinib plus Niraparib plus Atezolizumab will be evaluated in terms of investigator-assessed confirmed ORR, as determined using RECIST v1.1 in the Intention To Treat (ITT) population and in molecularly defined subgroups by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) status.

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
Randomization up to end of study (up to approximately 3 years, 7 months)

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which did not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE was therefore any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. New or pre-existing conditions which worsened during the study were also considered AEs.

Percentage of Participants With Overall Response Rate (ORR) as Determined by the Investigator Using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) Response Criteria
From randomization to the first occurrence of a response as defined above (up to approximately 3 years, 7 months)

ORR was defined as a stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), or partial response (PR) and was analyzed in the safety evaluable population and in the biomarker-selected sub-populations of t(11;14) and RAS mutations.

Percentage of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Baseline up until 30 days after the last dose of study drug (up to 5 years, 2 months)

Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) were defined as cobimetinib-related adverse events occurring within the first 28 days of each administration of cobimetinib.

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Including Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs)

Frequently asked questions about Cobimetinib

What is Cobimetinib?

Cobimetinib is a small molecule MAP2K1 and MAP2K2 inhibitor developed by Roche Holding AG. It is being studied in hematology and oncology indications, including chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, and melanoma. It is an investigational agent in clinical development rather than a marketed product.

What does Cobimetinib target?

Cobimetinib targets MAP2K1 and MAP2K2, also known as MEK1 and MEK2. It acts as an inhibitor of these kinases, which sit in the RAS pathway. Several of its trials enroll patients selected for RAS pathway mutations or BRAF mutation status, reflecting this mechanism.

Who makes Cobimetinib?

Cobimetinib is developed by Roche Holding AG, which trades over the counter under the ticker RHHBY. Roche is the sponsor behind the clinical program evaluating the drug across hematologic and solid tumor indications.

What phase is Cobimetinib in?

Cobimetinib is in Phase 2 development. Its clinical program includes Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies, with one trial currently active and not recruiting. It is an investigational drug and is not described as approved for the indications being studied.

What clinical trials is Cobimetinib in?

Cobimetinib trials include NCT04409639 in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia with RAS pathway mutations, NCT03695380 in platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer, NCT03625141 in melanoma with central nervous system metastases, and NCT03312530 in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. These studies have enrolled 262 participants in total.

What is Cobimetinib used for in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia?

Cobimetinib is being evaluated in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia in the Phase 2 trial NCT04409639, which enrolls newly diagnosed or hypomethylating agent-treated CMML patients who have RAS pathway mutations. The study is active but not recruiting and is being conducted in the United States.
