The purpose of this trial is to study the activity of vemurafenib in untreated melanoma brain metastases harboring B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) mutations that are not amenable to stereotactic radiosurgery based on size, number of lesions or location, to measure cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of vemurafenib as an indicator of central nervous system penetrance and to measure levels of vemurafenib in normal brain tissue and brain metastases in those in whom surgical management is feasible.
Name: Vemurafenib
Description: Single arm trialType: DrugVemurafenib Administration
Description: Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.
