Patent Claims:	1. A method of treating melanoma in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising: (a) detecting a mutant BRAF kinase in the melanoma; and (b) orally administering to said subject a therapeutically effective amount of: (i) a pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan- -2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and (ii) a pharmaceutical composition comprising a MEK inhibitor. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and said pharmaceutical composition comprising said MEK inhibitor are administered as a non-fixed combination. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and said pharmaceutical composition comprising said MEK inhibitor are administered sequentially. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the melanoma is melanoma having a B-Raf V600E mutation. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the MEK inhibitor is selected from: AS703026; MSC1936369B; GSK1120212; AZD6244; PD-0325901; ARRY-438162; RDEA119; GDC0941; GDC0973; TAK-733; RO5126766; and XL-518. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the MEK inhibitor is ARRY-438162. 7. The method of claim 3, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is formulated as a capsule. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is formulated as a capsule. 9. The method of claim 2, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and said pharmaceutical composition comprising said MEK inhibitor are administered concurrently. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the melanoma is melanoma having a B-Raf V600E mutation. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the MEK inhibitor is selected from: AS703026; MSC1936369B; GSK1120212; AZD6244; PD-0325901; ARRY-438162; RDEA119; GDC0941; GDC0973; TAK-733; RO5126766; and XL-518. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the MEK inhibitor is ARRY-438162. 13. The method of 9, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is formulated as a capsule. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein said pharmaceutical composition comprising methyl N-[(2 S)-1-({4-[3-(5-chloro-2-fluoro-3-methanesulfonamidophenyl)-1-(propan-2-yl- )-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)propan-2-yl]carbamate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is formulated as a capsule. 15. The method of claim 4, wherein said melanoma is metastatic melanoma. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the MEK inhibitor is selected from: AS703026; MSC1936369B; GSK1120212; AZD6244; PD-0325901; ARRY-438162; RDEA119; GDC0941; GDC0973; TAK-733; RO5126766; and XL-518. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the MEK inhibitor is ARRY-438162. 18. The method of claim 10, wherein said melanoma is metastatic melanoma. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein the MEK inhibitor is selected from: AS703026; MSC1936369B; GSK1120212; AZD6244; PD-0325901; ARRY-438162; RDEA119; GDC0941; GDC0973; TAK-733; RO5126766; and XL-518. 20.
