Treatment of Melanoma/Renal Cell Carcinoma Request title: Treatment of Melanoma/Renal Cell Carcinoma Reference Number: F4066 Date of Response: 15/07/2021 Further to your Freedom of Information Act request, please find the Trust’s response, in blue bold text below: Request and Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust Response I am researching the incidence and treatment of melanoma and renal cell carcinoma. Could you please answer the following three questions; Q1. How many patients have been treated in the past 3 months with the following agents for renal cell carcinoma: Avelumab + Axitinib * ≤5 Axinitib * ≤5 Cabozantinib * ≤5 Everolimus 0 Lenvantinib + Everolimus 0 Nivolumab 9 Nivolumab + Ipilimumab * ≤5 Pazopanib 6 Pembrolizumab + Axitinib 0 Sunitinib 11 Temsirolimus 0 Tivozanib 0 Other 0 * ≤5. In accordance with section 40 (2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, we are unable to provide figures where the number of patients is less than or equal to five and could risk the identification of those patients and breach Caldicott principles. This follows NHS Digital (formerly HSCIC) analysis guidance (2014) which states that small numbers within local authorities, wards, postcode districts, CCG’s providers and Trusts may allow identification of patients and should not be published. Q2. How many patients have been treated in the past 3 months with the following agents for melanoma (any stage): Cobimetinib Dabrafenib * ≤5 Dabrafenib + Trametinib 11 Encorafenib + Binimetinib * ≤5 Ipilimumab * ≤5 Ipilimumab + Nivolumab * ≤5 Nivolumab 18 Pembrolizumab 23 Trametinib 0 Vemurafenib 0 Vemurafenib + Cobimetinib 0 Other active systemic anti-cancer therapy * ≤5 Palliative care only 0 3. If possible, could you please provide the patients treated in the past 3 months with the following agents for metastatic melanoma ONLY: Cobimetinib 0 Dabrafenib * ≤5 Dabrafenib + Trametinib 7 Encorafenib + Binimetinib * ≤5 Ipilimumab * ≤5 Ipilimumab + Nivolumab * ≤5 Nivolumab 16 Pembrolizumab 16 Trametinib 0 Vemurafenib 0 Vemurafenib + Cobimetinib 0 Other active systemic anti-cancer therapy * ≤5 Palliative care only * ≤5 .

  • Combined BRAF and MEK Inhibition with Vemurafenib and Cobimetinib for Patients with Advanced Melanoma
    Review Melanoma Combined BRAF and MEK Inhibition with Vemurafenib and Cobimetinib for Patients with Advanced Melanoma Antonio M Grimaldi, Ester Simeone, Lucia Festino, Vito Vanella and Paolo A Ascierto Melanoma, Cancer Immunotherapy and Innovative Therapy Unit, Istituto Nazionale Tumori Fondazione “G. Pascale”, Napoli, Italy cquired resistance is the most common cause of BRAF inhibitor monotherapy treatment failure, with the majority of patients experiencing disease progression with a median progression-free survival of 6-8 months. As such, there has been considerable A focus on combined therapy with dual BRAF and MEK inhibition as a means to improve outcomes compared with monotherapy. In the COMBI-d and COMBI-v trials, combined dabrafenib and trametinib was associated with significant improvements in outcomes compared with dabrafenib or vemurafenib monotherapy, in patients with BRAF-mutant metastatic melanoma. The combination of vemurafenib and cobimetinib has also been investigated. In the phase III CoBRIM study in patients with unresectable stage III-IV BRAF-mutant melanoma, treatment with vemurafenib and cobimetinib resulted in significantly longer progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) compared with vemurafenib alone. One-year OS was 74.5% in the vemurafenib and cobimetinib group and 63.8% in the vemurafenib group, while 2-year OS rates were 48.3% and 38.0%, respectively. The combination was also well tolerated, with a lower incidence of cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma and keratoacanthoma compared with monotherapy. Dual inhibition of both MEK and BRAF appears to provide a more potent and durable anti-tumour effect than BRAF monotherapy, helping to prevent acquired resistance as well as decreasing adverse events related to BRAF inhibitor-induced activation of the MAPK-pathway.

Studies have shown polypharmacology as common phenomenon. In-silico approaches help in screening large compound libraries at once which could take years in a laboratory. We screened a library of 1050 FDA-approved drugs against spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV2 in-silico. Anti-cancer drugs have shown good binding affinity which is much better than hydroxychloroquine and arbidol. We have also introduced a hypothesis named “Bump” hypothesis which and be developed further in field of computational biology. Keywords: spike glycoprotein; FDA; drug repurposing; anti-cancer; hydroxychloroquine Introduction Identification of potential drug-target interaction for approved drugs serves as the basis of repurposing drugs. Studies have shown polypharmacology as common phenomenon [1][2]. Since the three-dimensional structures of proteins of SARS-CoV2 have been mapped it opens opportunity for in-silico approaches of either novel drug discovery or drug repurposing. In the absence of an exact cure or vaccine, coronavirus disease-19 has taken a huge toll of humanity. Our study of target specific drug docking and novel hypothesis contributes in this fight. In-silico approaches help in screening large compound libraries at once which could take years in a laboratory.

  • Cobimetinib/Vemurafenib Combination Therapy for Melanoma: a Nursing Tool from the Melanoma Nursing Initiative (MNI)
    Cobimetinib/Vemurafenib Combination Therapy for Melanoma: A Nursing Tool From The Melanoma Nursing Initiative (MNI) Cobimetinib (Cotellic®)/vemurafenib (Zelboraf®) combination therapy is indicated for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma with BRAF V600E or V600K mutations. Cobimetinib is a MEK1 and MEK2 inhibitor, and vemurafenib is an inhibitor of some mutated forms of BRAF kinase, including BRAF V600E. About half of patients with melanoma have a mutated form of the BRAF protein in their tumors. Combination MEK/ BRAF inhibitor therapy is associated with superior tumor response and improved patient survival compared with single-agent BRAF inhibitor therapy. Using the combination also decreases the high rates of secondary cutaneous malignancies associated with single-agent BRAF inhibitory therapy. This document is part of an overall nursing toolkit intended to assist nurses in optimizing care of melanoma patients receiving newer anti-melanoma therapies. © 2017 The Melanoma Nursing Initiative. All rights reserved www.themelanomanurse.org Inspired By Patients . Empowered By Knowledge . Impacting Melanoma DRUG-DOSING/ADMINISTRATION • For advanced melanoma, both cobimetinib and vemurafenib are orally administered drugs. Cobimetinib is administered as 60 mg (three 20-mg tablets) once daily for 3 weeks, followed by a 1-week break, and vemurafenib as 960 mg (four 240-mg tablets) twice daily, for a total daily dosage of 1920 mg, each according to the regimens outlined below. The cobimetinib dose can be taken at the same time as one of the vemurafenib doses. The schedule repeats until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. • If the patient misses a dose of cobimetinib or vemurafenib, adjust as follows: » Cobimetinib: If ≤4 hours from scheduled dosing time, take the dose.
