This is a Phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of cobimetinib plus atezolizumab compared with pembrolizumab in treatment-naive participants with advanced BRAFV600 wild-type melanoma.
- Conditions
- Advanced BRAFV600 Wild-type Melanoma
- Being tested
- Cobimetinib, Atezolizumab, Pembrolizumab
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
CobimetinibDrug
Cobimetinib 60 mg tablets orally once daily on a 21 days on, 7 days off schedule.
AtezolizumabDrug
Atezolizumab 840 mg as IV infusion once in every 2 weeks.
PembrolizumabDrug

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Cobimetinib and Atezolizumab | Experimental | Participants will receive 60 mg of cobimetinib orally from Days 1 to 21 along with 840 mg of atezolizumab by intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle until investigator-determined disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, patient or physician decision to withdraw, or pregnancy, whichever occurs first. There will be no cobimetinib administration for 7 days (Days 22-28) in each cycle. Receives: Drug: Cobimetinib; Drug: Atezolizumab |
| Pembrolizumab | Active comparator | Participants will receive 200 mg of pembrolizumab administered by IV infusion every 3 weeks (Q3W) until investigator-determined disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, patient or physician decision to withdraw, or pregnancy, whichever occurs first. Receives: Drug: Pembrolizumab |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC)
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression, as determined by an IRC according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Progressive disease (PD) for target lesion: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters on study (including baseline). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of >/=5 mm. PD for non-target lesion: Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
Measured: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months
Secondary outcomes (15)
PFS as Determined by the Investigator
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression, as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Progressive disease (PD) for target lesion: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters on study (including baseline). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of >/=5 mm. PD for non-target lesion: Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
Measured: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months
Objective Response as Determined by the Investigator
Objective response rate is defined as the percentage of participants with a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR) on two consecutive occasions >/=4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigator through the use of RECIST v1.1. For target lesion, CR: the disappearance of all target lesions, any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR. For non-target lesion, CR: the disappearance of all non-target lesions and (if applicable) normalization of tumor marker level, all lymph nodes must be non-pathological in size (<10 mm short axis).
Measured: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months
Objective Response as Determined by IRC
Objective response, defined as a complete response or partial response on two consecutive occasions ≥4 weeks apart, as determined by IRC according to RECIST v1.1
Measured: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR is defined as the proportion of participants with a complete response, a partial response, or stable disease at 16 weeks. For target lesion, CR: the disappearance of all target lesions, any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR. For non-target lesion, CR: the disappearance of all non-target lesions and (if applicable) normalization of tumor marker level, all lymph nodes must be non-pathological in size (<10 mm short axis). Stable disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for CR or PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD.
Measured: Week 16
Overall Survival (OS)
OS is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause.
Measured: From randomization up to approximately 3 years
Duration of Objective Response Determined by the IRC
Duration of objective response, defined as the time from the first occurrence of a documented objective response to disease progression, as determined by an IRC according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
Measured: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months
Duration of Objective Response Determined by the Investigator
Duration of objective response is defined as the time from the first occurrence of a documented objective response to disease progression, as determined by the investigator through use of RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
Measured: Up to 3 years
Two-year Landmark Survival
Two-year landmark survival is defined as the rate of survival at 2 years. Two-year landmark survival is defined as the rate of survival at 2 years and was calculated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, which is commonly used to estimate the probability of an event at time 't.'
Measured: At 2 years
Change From Baseline in Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) Scores
HRQoL scores are assessed through global health status (GHS)/ quality of life (QoL) subscale of the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ C30). These are based on questions 29 and 30 of the EORTC QLQ-C30. These questions on global health status/QoL scale are coded on 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent). Raw scores will be linearly transformed to obtain the score ranging from 0 to 100, where higher score represents a higher ("better") level of functioning.
Measured: Up to approximately 16 months. Follow up is reported at weeks after participant treatment discontinuation, which could occur at any time during the study. Total time frame does not exceed 16 months.
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable 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. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
Measured: Up to approximately 16 months
Number of Participants With Abnormal Vital Signs
Vital signs will include temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Measured: From baseline up to approximately 3 years
Number of Participants With Laboratory Abnormalities
Participants with laboratory abnormalities (values outside of a defined range) will be reported.
Measured: Up to approximately 16 months
Plasma Concentration of Cobimetinib
Measured: Days 1 and 15 of Cycle 1
Serum Concentration of Atezolizumab
Measured: Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, and 3
Percentage of Participants With Anti-drug Antibodies (ADAs)
Participants with ADAs during the study relative to the prevalence of ADAs at baseline will be reported.
Measured: Day 1 of Cycle 1, 2, 3 and 30 days after treatment discontinuation

Primary outcome
Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC)
Time frame: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression, as determined by an IRC according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Progressive disease (PD) for target lesion: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters on study (including baseline). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of >/=5 mm. PD for non-target lesion: Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Cobimetinib, Atezolizumab and Pembrolizumab in people with Advanced BRAFV600 Wild-type Melanoma, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 121 sites in 15 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 32 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 121 sites in United States, France, Spain, Germany, Italy and 10 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Jun 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC) (time frame: Every 8 weeks (wks) from Day (D) 1 of Cycle (C) 1 through approximately 16 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03273153, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Sep 2022.
