Description
Inhibition of CDK4 and 6, regulators of the G1/S cell cycle checkpoint, arrests the cell cycle in the G1 phase, suppresses DNA synthesis, and inhibits cancer cell growth. There is an ongoing phase 1/2 trial of binimetinib with the CDK4/6 inhibitor ribociclib (LEE011) in mutant NRAS melanoma patients (NCT01781572). Early results from the 21 evaluable patients were very promising, with 7 patients achieving a partial response (33%) and 11 patients with stable disease (52%)
