- Phase Ib: Estimation of Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) by measuring incidence of dose limiting toxicities (DLT) [ Time Frame: up to 8 months ]To estimate the MTD(s) and/or recommended phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D(s)) of oral LGX818 in combination with oral MEK162, and of oral LGX818 in combination with oral MEK162 and oral LEE011 in patients with BRAF V600-dependent advanced solid tumors by measuring the incidence of DLTs as defined by the protocol.
- Phase II: Clinical efficacy [ Time Frame: up to 14 months ]Assess clinical efficacy of the LGX818 and MEK162 dual combination and LGX818 and MEK162 and LEE011 triple combination in the Phase II populations by evaluating the disease control rate (DCR) and objective response rate (ORR) as per RECIST 1.1
- Safety and tolerability of LGX818 and MEK162 dual combination, and LGX818 and MEK162 and LEE011 triple combination by evaluating the incidence and severity of adverse events (AE). [ Time Frame: up to 17 months ]To characterize the safety and tolerability of LGX818 and MEK162 in combination, and LGX818 and MEK162 and LEE011 in combination by evaluating the incidence and severity (as per CTCAE grading) of AEs in all patients enrolled in the study.
- Determination of single and multiple dose of Pharmacokinetics (PK) profile by measuring plasma concentrations versus time after study drug combination dosing (Phase Ib) [ Time Frame: up to 8 months ]To determine the single and multiple dose PK profile of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination and LGX818 and MEK162 and LEE011 combination, by measuring plasma concentrations of MEK162 and LGX818 and LEE011 resp. at different timepoints prior and post study drug combination dosing on several days within cycle 1 and subsequent cycles.
- Preliminary clinical anti-tumor activity by evaluating the objective response rate (Phase Ib) [ Time Frame: up to 8 months ]To assess preliminary anti-tumor activity of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination, and the LGX818 and MEK162 and LEE011 combination by evaluating the ORR as per RECIST 1.1. Safety Issue?: (FDAAA) No
- Further clinical efficacy (phase II) [ Time Frame: up to 14 months ]To further assess clinical efficacy of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination and the LGX818 and MEK162 and LEE011 combination in the Phase II populations by measuring progression free survival (PFS) as per RECIST 1.1
