This trial is for adults aged 18–100 with unresectable stage IIIb–d or IV melanoma, excluding ocular melanoma. Prior treatment for metastatic disease is restricted; some surgery, radiation and adjuvant treatments are allowed.

The idea: test sarilumab with ipilimumab, nivolumab and relatlimab. Sarilumab blocks IL-6 inflammation signaling; the other drugs release immune brakes. After an initial four-drug stage, a randomized stage compares the combination with or without sarilumab, measuring serious immune side effects and tumor response.

This phase 2 study plans 105 patients. NYU Langone leads; four US locations list recruitment.
