This trial is for adults with removable stage IIIB through M1a melanoma of the skin or an unknown primary site.
The idea: compare two pembrolizumab infusions with ipilimumab plus nivolumab followed by nivolumab alone. The infusions are three weeks apart, followed by lymph-node surgery. These antibodies block PD-1 or CTLA-4 immune brakes. Neither group receives planned postoperative drug treatment, regardless of the tumor's response. Researchers track survival to assess this approach.
This phase 2 study plans 55 patients. Stergios Moschos leads the recruiting UNC Lineberger site in Chapel Hill.
