Description:
Substudy 02A is part of a larger research study that is testing experimental treatments for
melanoma, a type of skin cancer. The larger study is the umbrella study.
The goal of substudy 02A is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of investigational treatment
arms in participants with PD-1 refractory melanoma to identify the investigational agent(s)
that, when used in combination, are superior to the current treatment options/historical
control available.

Maximum Eligible Age: | 120 Years |
Minimum Eligible Age: | 18 Years |
Eligible Gender: | All |
Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Primary Outcome Measures
Measure: | Percentage of participants who experience an adverse event (AE) |
Time Frame: | Up to ~28 months |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The percentage of participants who experience an AE will be reported. |
Secondary Outcome Measures
Measure: | Duration of Response (DOR) per RECIST 1.1 |
Time Frame: | Up to ~30 months |
Safety Issue: | |
Description: | For participants in the analysis population who demonstrate a confirmed CR (disappearance of all target lesions) or confirmed PR (at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters), DOR is defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Responses are according to RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR. RECIST 1.1 has been modified for this study to include a maximum of 10 target lesions and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ. |
