Encorafenib Plus Binimetinib in Patients With Locally Advanced, Unresectable or Metastatic BRAFV600-mutated Melanoma: a Prospective, Longitudinal, Non-interventional Study in Germany, Austria and Switzerland - BERING MELANOMA

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are investigating the real-world use of encorafenib plus binimetinib for patients with unresectable advanced or metastatic melanoma that has a BRAF V600 mutation. This observational study focuses on documenting treatment effects, quality of life, safety, and tolerability after these drugs became commercially available in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The study specifically looks at patients treated in the first and second line settings after prior checkpoint inhibitor therapy. The study observes patients who are treated with encorafenib plus binimetinib according to the approved product guidelines. Participants may have started this treatment up to six months before joining the study or may begin treatment soon after enrollment. The study tracks treatment details, effectiveness, side effects, and patient-reported outcomes over a median treatment duration of about 12 months, with a total observation period of up to 90 months. Participants will be followed through regular documentation of their disease and treatment progress, including patient and disease profiles, treatment sequences, adverse events, and quality of life assessments using questionnaires. The main outcome measured is progression-free survival at 12 months after treatment start. Researchers will also evaluate treatment duration, interruptions, dose intensity, and physician satisfaction. Long-term safety and prognostic factors will be monitored throughout the observation period until study completion in September 2027.
