#ASCO18: Array to update on Phase 3 melanoma trial


Array BioPharma Inc. (Nasdaq: ARRY) announced that it will present data from the Phase 3 COLUMBUS trial of encorafenib and binimetinib in advanced BRAF-mutant melanoma in an oral presentation on June 4, 2018, at the 54th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) in Chicago, Illinois.
“Binimetinib and encorafenib is the first targeted therapy to demonstrate over 30 months median overall survival in a Phase 3 trial and we look forward to presenting the results from the COLUMBUS trial at ASCO,” said Ron Squarer, Chief Executive Officer. “With nearly 15 months median progression-free survival and an attractive tolerability profile, these data underscore the potential of this combination to become an important new treatment option for patients with BRAF-mutant advanced, unresectable or metastatic melanoma.”
As previously announced, the most common Grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) seen in more than 5% of patients were increased gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) (9%), increased creatine phosphokinase (7%), and hypertension (6%) in the encorafenib plus binimetinib group.
