Primary Outcome(s)

Main Objective: Phase Ib: To estimate the MTD(s) and/or RP2D(s) of oral LGX818 in combination with oral MEK162 in patients with BRAF V600-dependent advanced solid tumors.
Phase II: To assess clinical efficacy of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination in the Phase II populations.

Primary end point(s): Phase Ib: Incidence of Dose Limiting Toxicities

Phase II : Disease control rate (DCR) as per RECIST v1.1 OR Objective Response Rate (ORR) as per RECIST v1.1 (depending on arm)

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Phase Ib : up to 8 months
Phase II : up to 14 months

Secondary Objective: 1. Phase Ib and II : to characterize the safety and tolerability of LGX818 and MEK162 in combination.
2. Phase Ib : to determine the single and multiple dose PK profile of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination.
3. Phase Ib : to assess preliminary anti-tumor activity of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination.
4. Phase II : to further assess clinical efficacy of the LGX818 and MEK162 combination in the Phase II populations.

Secondary Outcome(s)

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. up to 17 months
2. up to 8 months
3. up to 8 months
4. up to 14 months

Secondary end point(s): 1. Phase Ib and II : Incidence and severity (as per CTCAE grading) of AEs.
2. Phase Ib : Plasma concentrations of MEK162 and LGX818 respectively at different timepoints prior and post study drug combination dosing on several days within Cycle 1 and subsequent cycles.
3. Phase Ib : ORR as per RECIST v1.1
4. Phase II : Progression Free Survival (PFS) as per RECIST 1.1 in all patients with the same indication
