Study Summary

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of trametinib and navitoclax and how well they work in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic). Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Navitoclax inhibits members of the BCL2 family of proteins that are believed to play key roles in promoting the survival of cancer cells. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, and Bcl-w, proteins needed for cancer cell survival. Giving trametinib and navitoclax may help stop the growth of tumor cells.

Primary Outcome

Dose escalation uses a 3+3 enrollment design per dose level. The occurrence of 1 dose limiting toxicity (DLT) will prompt expansion of a given dose level to 6 participants. The occurrence of 2 DLTs in a given dose level will indicate that the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) has been exceeded, and expansion of the prior dose level to 6 participants will occur, if not already performed. The recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) will be the highest dose level at which no more than 1 out of 6 participants ex
