Trial Information

A Randomized Phase II Trial of BAY 43-9006 (Sorafenib; NSC-724772) With Either CCI-779 (Temsirolimus; NSC-683864) or R115777 (Tipifarnib; NSC-702818) in Metastatic Melanoma


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Compare the response rate (confirmed and unconfirmed and complete and partial) in
patients with unresectable stage IV malignant melanoma treated with sorafenib in combination
with either temsirolimus or tipifarnib.

II. Compare the 4-month progression-free survival rate of patients treated with these
regimens.

III. Compare the safety and tolerability of these regimens, with an emphasis on long-term
side effects and toxic effects, in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to
metastatic (M) stage (M1a/b vs M1c). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I (reopened to accrual as of 8/15/2009): Patients receive oral sorafenib twice daily on
days 1-28 and temsirolimus IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22.

ARM II (closed to accrual as of 8/15/2009): Patients receive oral sorafenib as in arm I and
oral tipifarnib twice daily on days 1-21.

In both arms, courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 3 years.
