Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Vemurafenib

Experimental: Cohort 1: Previously Untreated Participants - Participants who had not received previous treatment for brain metastases \[i.e., had never received brain stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT), whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT), surgery, or any other treatment for their brain metastases\] received Vemurafenib 960 milligram (mg) tablet orally, twice daily (BID) from Day 1 until development of progressive disease within the brain or outside of the brain (whichever occurred first), unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, protocol violation endangering participant's safety, death, reasons deemed by the investigator, or study termination by the Sponsor.

Experimental: Cohort 2: Previously treated Participants - Participants who were previously treated with brain SRT, WBRT, or surgery for their brain metastases and have progressed following this treatment, received Vemurafenib 960 milligram (mg) tablet orally, BID from Day 1 until development of progressive disease within the brain or outside of the brain (whichever occurred first), unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, protocol violation endangering participant's safety, death, reasons deemed by the investigator, or study termination by the Sponsor.


Treatment: Drugs: Vemurafenib
960 mg oral doses twice daily until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or consent withdrawal.

Summary
Brief summary
This open-label, single-arm, multicenter study will evaluate the efficacy and safety in participants with metastatic melanoma who developed brain metastases. Participants may or may not have received prior systemic treatment for metastatic melanoma \[except treatment with v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B (BRAF) or mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK) inhibitors\]. Participants will receive oral doses of 960 mg vemurafenib twice daily until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or consent withdrawal.
