Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - MEK162
Treatment: Drugs - AMG 479

Experimental: Dose escalation - Dose finding group chosen in order to establish a safe and tolerated dose of binimetinib in combination with ganitumab in patients with selected advanced solid tumors.

Experimental: KRAS mutated colorectal adenocarcinoma - Patients with KRAS mutant colorectal cancer.
The starting dose (30 mg bid) of binimetinib chosen for this study was a fraction of the MTD (60 mg bid) and the RP2D (45 mg bid) determined for single agent use. The starting dose for ganitumab was 12 mg/kg q2w which had been shown to be a well-tolerated dose in combination with other anti-cancer agents.

Experimental: Metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma - Patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
The starting dose (30 mg bid) of binimetinib chosen for this study was a fraction of the MTD (60 mg bid) and the RP2D (45 mg bid) determined for single agent use. The starting dose for ganitumab was 12 mg/kg q2w which had been shown to be a well-tolerated dose in combination with other anti-cancer agents.

Experimental: BRAF mutated melanoma - Patients with mutant BRAF V600 melanoma.
The starting dose (30 mg bid) of binimetinib chosen for this study was a fraction of the MTD (60 mg bid) and the RP2D (45 mg bid) determined for single agent use. The starting dose for ganitumab was 12 mg/kg q2w which had been shown to be a well-tolerated dose in combination with other anti-cancer agents.


Treatment: Drugs: MEK162
Supplied as tablets of dosage strength 15 mg in high-density polyethylene bottles with child-resistant closure.

Treatment: Drugs: AMG 479
Supplied as sterile liquid for intravenous infusion in vials in boxes. Until April 2013 a frozen formulation with a concentration of 30 mg/ml was used; from May 2013 onwards a refrigerated formulation with a concentration of 70 mg/ml was used.

Summary
Brief summary
This is a multi-center, open-label, phase Ib/II study. First, the aim of the phase Ib part is
to estimate the MTD(s) and/or to identify the recommended phase II dose(s) (RP2D) for the
combination of MEK162 and AMG 479 (ganitumab), followed by the phase II part to assess the
clinical efficacy and to further assess the safety of the combination in selected patient
populations. The dose escalation part of the study will be guided by a Bayesian Logistic
Regression Model (BLRM). At least 18 patients are expected to be enrolled in the dose
escalation part.

Following MTD/ RP2D declaration, patients will be enrolled in three phase II arms to assess
efficacy of the combination as well as to better understand the safety, tolerability, PK,
antibody concentrations and PD of the combination at MTD/RP2D. Phase II arm 1 will consist of
approximately 25 patients with KRAS-mutant colorectal adenocarcinoma. Phase II arm 2 will
consist of approximately 20 patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Phase II arm
3 will consist of approximately 28 patients with mutant BRAFV600 melanoma.

Patients will be treated until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity develops, or
withdrawal of informed consent, whichever occurs first. All patients will be followed up - at
minimum patients must complete the safety follow-up assessments 30 days after the last dose
of the study treatment.
