Description

Summary

Substudy 02B is part of a larger research study where researchers are looking for new ways to treat advanced melanoma that has not been treated before. The larger study is the umbrella study. Researchers want to know if adding other treatments to pembrolizumab can treat advanced melanoma. The goals of this study are to learn:

  • About the safety and how well people tolerate pembrolizumab given with other treatments
  • How many people have melanoma that responds (gets smaller or goes away) to treatment

Arm 1: Pembrolizumab + Vibostolimab was added in the base protocol on 13-Nov-2019, and enrollment into this arm has been completed. Arm 2: Pembrolizumab was added in the base protocol on 13-Nov-2019, and enrollment stopped prematurely on 15-Aug-2022. Arm 3: Coformulation Pembrolizumab/Quavonlimab was added in Amendment 01 on 20-Oct-2020, and enrollment stopped prematurely on 15-Aug-2022. Arm 4: Coformulation Pembrolizumab/Quavonlimab + Lenvatinib was added in Amendment 01 on 20-Oct-2020, and enrollment is ongoing. Arm 5: Coformulation Favezelimab/Pembrolizumab was added in Amendment 03 on 01-DEC-2022 and has paused enrollment, Arm 6: Coformulation Favezelimab/Pembrolizumab + All-trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) was added in Amendment 03 on 01-DEC-2022 and has paused enrollment, and Arm 7: Coformulation Favezelimab/Pembrolizumab + Vibostolimab was added in Amendment 03 on 01-DEC-2022 and enrollment was stopped prematurely on 22-SEP-2023.
