PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To compare relapse-free survival (RFS) between patients who develop a pathologic complete response (pCR) or do not achieve a pCR following dabrafenib and trametinib neoadjuvant combination therapy in patients with locally advanced BRAF V600 mutated melanoma.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To compare overall survival of patients with pathologic complete response (pCR) and patients without pCR who are receiving dabrafenib and trametinib neoadjuvant therapy followed by adjuvant combination therapy.
II. To identify biomarkers predictive of response through collection of serial blood draws and biopsies in patients receiving neoadjuvant dabrafenib and trametinib combination therapy.
III. To evaluate the safety of dabrafenib and trametinib in combination in this patient population.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate and perform further advanced imaging analysis on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and positron emission tomography (PET) scanned (if available) images collected on patients enrolled onto this study.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive dabrafenib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) and trametinib PO once daily (QD) for 8 weeks. After completion of 8 weeks of dabrafenib and trametinib, patients undergo surgery. Approximately 1 week after surgery, patients receive dabrafenib PO BID and trametinib PO QD for 44 additional weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 1 year.

Experimental: Treatment (dabrafenib, trametinib, surgery)
Patients receive dabrafenib PO BID and trametinib PO QD for 8 weeks. After completion of 8 weeks of dabrafenib and trametinib, patients undergo surgery. Approximately 1 week after surgery, patients receive dabrafenib PO BID and trametinib PO QD for 44 additional weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- Relapse-free survival (RFS) [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ]RFS will be compared between patients with a pathologic complete response (pCR) and patients without a pCR using a two-sided log-rank test.
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ]The association between RFS and OS and covariates of interest will be assessed using Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.
- Complete pathologic response [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ]Logistic regression will be used to assess the association between the probability of complete pathologic response and clinical and disease covariates of interest.
- Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ]Safety parameters will be tabulated by using Fisher's exact tests for categorical variables and Wilcoxon rank-sum tests for continuous variables.
- Markers predictive of response collected by serial blood draws and biopsies [ Time Frame: Up to 1 year ]Indicators of treatment response and resistance will be obtained by analysis of serial blood and tumor biopsy samples. Specific assays include analysis of circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry and genomic sequencing. Patterns of these factors will be correlated with pathologic response.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form
-
Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IIIB/C melanoma by American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) version 7; the definition of resectability can be determined by the patient's surgical oncologist and verified via discussion at Multidisciplinary Tumor Conference attended by melanoma medical and surgical oncology staff; resectable tumors are defined as having no significant vascular, neural or bony involvement; only cases where a complete surgical resection with tumor-free margins can safely be achieved are defined as resectable
- Multicenter sites: confirmation of diagnosis via histology or cytology will be made by the local site pathologist; likewise, resectability determination will be made by the site's multidisciplinary team
- Patients must be medically fit enough to undergo surgery as determined by the surgical oncology team
- BRAF mutation-positive melanoma (V600E or V600K) based on report from a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified laboratory
- Patients must have measurable disease, defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1.5 x 10^9/L
- Hemoglobin >= 9.5 g/dL
- Platelets >= 100 x 10^9/L
- Prothrombin time/international normalized ratio (PT/INR) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN (isolated bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin < 35%)
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2.5 x ULN
- Albumin >= 2.5 g/dL
- Creatinine =< 1.5 x ULN OR calculated creatinine clearance >= 50 mL/min OR 24-hour urine creatinine clearance >= 50 mL/min
