Elevations in serum ALT levels were reported in 11% of patients treated with dabrafenib alone, but all elevations were above 5 times ULN. When dabrafenib was given in combination with trametinib, serum ALT elevations occurred in 35% to 42% of patients and were above 5 times ULN in 4%. Similarly, serum alkaline phosphatase elevations occurred in 26% of patients given dabrafenib alone, but in 60% to 67% given dabrafenib and trametinib. These abnormalities were largely asymptomatic and fully reversible. There were no instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury or hepatic failure reported in prelicensure studies of dabrafenib and, since its approval and more wide spread use, there have been no published reports of dabrafenib hepatotoxicity.；Likelihood score: E* (unproven but suspected cause of clinically apparent liver injury).

◉ Summary of Use during Lactation；No information is available on the clinical use of dabrafenib during breastfeeding. Because dabrafenib is more than 99% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during dabrafenib therapy and for 2 weeks after the last dose.；◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants；Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date.；◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk；Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date.

Dabrafenib is a kinase inhibitor that is mainly used to target BRAF V600E mutation in multiple types of cancer. Although dabrafenib and [trametinib] both inhibit the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, they inhibit different effectors of the pathway, thus increasing response rate and mitigating resistance without cumulative toxicity. The melanoma approval for use with [trametinib] is based on results from COMBI-AD, a Phase III study of 870 patients with Stage III BRAF V600E/K mutation-positive melanoma treated with dabrafenib + trametinib after complete surgical resection. Patients received doses of dabrafenib (150 mg BID) + trametinib (2 mg QD) combination (n = 438) or matching placebos (n = 432). After a median follow-up of 2.8 years, the primary endpoint of relapse-free survival (RFS) was met. In the case of thyroid cancer, Dabrafenib plus Trametinib is the first regimen demonstrated to have potent clinical activity in BRAF V600E–mutated anaplastic thyroid cancer and is well tolerated. These findings represent a meaningful therapeutic advance for this orphan disease.

Dabrafenib is a competitive and selective BRAF inhibitor by binding to its ATP pocket. Although dabrafenib can inhibit wild-type BRAF, it has a higher affinity for mutant forms of BRAF, including BRAF V600E, BRAF V600K, and BRAF V600D. BRAF is a serine/threonine protein kinase and is involved in activating the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK or MAPK pathway, a pathway that is implicated in cell cycle progression, cell proliferation, and arresting apoptosis.Therefore, constitutive active mutation of BRAF such as BRAF V600E is frequently observed in many types of cancer, including melanoma, lung cancer, and colon cancer.

The mean terminal half-life of dabrafenib is 8 hours after oral administration. Hydroxy-dabrafenib's terminal half-life (10 hours) parallels that of dabrafenib while the carboxy- and desmethyl-dabrafenib metabolites exhibit longer half-lives (21 to 22 hours).

The metabolism of dabrafenib is primarily mediated by CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 to form hydroxy-dabrafenib. Hydroxy-dabrafenib is further oxidized via CYP3A4 to form carboxy-dabrafenib and subsequently excreted in bile and urine. Carboxy-dabrafenib is decarboxylated to form desmethyl-dabrafenib; desmethyl-dabrafenib may be reabsorbed from the gut. Desmethyl-dabrafenib is further metabolized by CYP3A4 to oxidative metabolites.

After oral administration, the median time to achieve peak plasma concentration (Tmax) is 2 hours. Mean absolute bioavailability of oral dabrafenib is 95%. Following a single dose, dabrafenib exposure (Cmax and AUC) increased in a dose-proportional manner across the dose range of 12 mg to 300 mg, but the increase was less than dose-proportional after repeat twice-daily dosing. After repeated twice-daily dosing of 150 mg, the mean accumulation ratio was 0.73, and the inter-subject variability (CV%) of AUC at steady-state was 38%.

Fecal excretion is the major route of elimination accounting for 71% of radioactive dose while urinary excretion accounted for 23% of total radioactivity as metabolites only.

The apparent volume of distribution (Vc/F) is 70.3 L.Distribution to the brain is restricted because dabrafenib is a substrate and undergoes efflux by P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein.

The clearance of dabrafenib is 17.0 L/h after single dosing and 34.4 L/h after 2 weeks of twice-daily dosing.
