This does not apply to patients with confirmed Gilbert's syndrome (persistent or recurrent hyperbilirubinemia, which is predominantly unconjugated in the absence of hemolysis or liver pathology); however, they will only be admitted after consulting their doctor. * Aspartate transaminase (AST) (SGOT) / alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (SGPT) ≤ 2.5x the institutional upper limit of normal, unless liver metastases are present, in which case it should be ≤ 5x ULN. * Measured creatinine clearance (CL)\> 40 ml/min or Estimated creatinine clearance\> 40 ml/min using the Cockcroft-Gault formula (Cockcroft and Gault, 1976) or 24-hour urine collection to determine creatinine clearance. * Albumin\> = 2.5 mg / dL (received = \<30 days prior to registration) * International normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) = \<1.5 X ULN if the subject is not receiving anticoagulant therapy while PT or partial thromboplastin time (PTT) is within the therapeutic range of the intended use of anticoagulants * Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) = \<1.5 x ULN if the subject is not receiving anticoagulant therapy while the PT or PTT is within the therapeutic range of the intended use of anticoagulants 10. Adequately controlled blood pressure with or without antihypertensive drugs, defined as blood pressure (BP) \<150/90 mm Hg. Art. 11. Subjects should be prepared to undergo tumor biopsy before and after dabrafenib/trametinib therapy if a biopsy is impractical or not safe in the judgment of the treating physician. Subjects should be prepared for surgery if their tumor becomes surgically resectable. Research Subjects reserve the right to refuse any research intervention. 12. Female subjects of childbearing age (not surgically sterile or at least 2 years postmenopausal) must present a negative pregnancy test at screening and use a medically accepted double-barrier method of contraception (such as a spermicide condom + IUD or cervical caps) ... In addition, they must agree to continue using this double-barrier method for the duration of the study and for 4 months after the end of study participation. Women will be considered postmenopausal if they have had amenorrhea within 12 months without an alternative medical cause. The following age requirements apply: 1. Women younger than 50 are considered postmenopausal if they have had amenorrhea for 12 months or more after stopping treatment with exogenous hormones, and if they have postmenopausal levels of luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone or have undergone surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy). 2. Women over 50 years of age will be considered postmenopausal if they have had amenorrhea for 12 months or more after stopping all exogenous hormonal drugs with last menstrual period\> 1 year ago, had menopause caused by chemotherapy with last menstrual period\> 1 year ago, or have undergone surgery sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy). 13. Men must agree to abstain from sexual intercourse with a female partner or agree to use a double-barrier method of contraception (for example, a spermicide condom, in addition to the fact that their female partner is using some form of contraception, such as an intrauterine device (IUD) or cervical caps), at the time of the study and for 4 months after the end of participation in the study, and refrain from donating sperm during this period. 14. Patient willingness and ability to adhere to protocol throughout the study, including undergoing treatment, and availability for scheduled visits and examinations, including follow-up. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Concurrent participation in another clinical trial unless it is an observational (non-interventional) clinical trial or during the follow-up period of an interventional trial. 2. Taking any type of low molecular weight kinase inhibitor (including the investigational kinase inhibitor) for 2 weeks or 5 half-lives of the agent, whichever is greater. 3. Receiving any type of anticancer drugs (including investigational) or systemic chemotherapy within 2 weeks before starting treatment. 4. The presence of distant metastases (for example, to the brain, lungs). 5. Subject has an uncontrolled, serious underlying medical condition or recent illness, including but not limited to the following conditions: A) Cardiovascular diseases: * Congestive heart failure, grade 3 or 4 as defined by the New York Heart Association, unstable angina, and severe cardiac arrhythmias. * Uncontrolled hypertension, defined as sustained blood pressure\> 150 mm Hg. Systolic or diastolic\> 100 mmHg * Stroke, including transient ischemic attack (TIA), myocardial infarction, other ischemic event or thromboembolic events such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism) within 6 months prior to inclusion. Subjects with a later diagnosis of DVT are eligible if they are stable, asymptomatic, and have received LMWH for at least 6 weeks prior to study treatment. B) Gastrointestinal disorders (eg malabsorption syndrome or gastric outlet obstruction), including those associated with a high risk of perforation or fistula formation: * Active peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, cholecystitis, symptomatic cholangitis or appendicitis, acute pancreatitis or acute obstruction of the pancreas or bile ducts, or obstruction of the gastric outlet. * Abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, bowel obstruction, or intra-abdominal abscess within 6 months prior to inclusion. Note: Complete healing of the intra-abdominal abscess must be confirmed before starting treatment. C) Clinically significant vomiting or hemoptysis\> 0.5 teaspoons (\> 2.5 ml) of red blood or another significant bleeding in history within 3 months prior to treatment. D) Interstitial lung lesions or known manifestations of the endobronchial disease. F) Lesions invading the main pulmonary blood vessels. F) Other clinically significant disorders such as: * An active infection requiring systemic treatment, infection with human immunodeficiency virus or disease associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or chronic infection with hepatitis B or C. * Serious non-healing wound / ulcer / bone fracture. * Moderate or severe liver failure (Child-Pugh B or C). * The need for hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. * Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. * History of solid organ transplantation. 6. Major surgery (such as gastrointestinal surgery and removal or biopsy of brain metastases) within 8 weeks prior to inclusion. Complete wound healing following major surgery should occur 4 weeks before the study treatment, and after minor surgery (eg, simple excision, tooth extraction) at least 10 days before the study treatment. Patients with clinically significant ongoing complications from prior surgery are not eligible. 7. Adjusted QT interval calculated by Fridericia formula (QTcf)\> 500 ms for 28 days prior to study treatment. Note: If a single ECG displays a QTCf with an absolute value\> 500 ms, two additional ECGs at approximately 3 min intervals must be performed within 30 minutes of the initial ECG, and the average of these three consecutive results will be used to assess eligibility for study participation. 8. Pregnant (test must be done no later than 7 days before the start of the study) or nursing mothers. 9. Received any live vaccine = \<30 days prior to study initiation. 10. Inability to swallow tablets/capsules and lack of gastrostomy. 11. Previously identified allergy or hypersensitivity to the components of the investigational dosage forms. 12.
