• Adequate bone marrow, cardiac, kidney and liver function
• Able to take oral medications
• Female patients are either postmenopausal for at least 1 year, are surgically sterile for at least 6 weeks, or must agree to take appropriate precautions to avoid pregnancy from screening through follow-up if of childbearing potential
• Males must agree to take appropriate precautions to avoid fathering a child from screening through follow-up Key

Exclusion Criteria

• Prior treatment with any RAF inhibitor, MEK inhibitor, cetuximab, panitumumab or other epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors
