A Study of Adjuvant Pembrolizumab/Vibostolimab (MK-7684A) Versus Pembrolizumab for Resected High-Risk Melanoma in Participants With High-Risk Stage II-IV Melanoma (MK-7684A-010/KEYVIBE-010)

Phase 3
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Melanoma
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT05665595
Lead Sponsor
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab/vibostolimab to pembrolizumab with respect to recurrence-free survival (RFS). The primary hypothesis is that pembrolizumab/vibostolimab is superior to pembrolizumab with respect to RFS as assessed by the investigator in participants with high-risk resected Stage IIB, IIC, III and IV melanoma.

Detailed Description

With Amendment 4, participants will discontinue treatment with pembrolizumab/vibostolimab.

The protocol-specified futility analysis of the primary outcome measure was completed with a data cut-off of 06-Mar-2024 (Primary Completion Date) and served as the final analysis of the primary outcome measure. Per protocol, 192 participants enrolled after the primary completion date and will be analyzed in the End of Trial analysis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)Up to approximately 13 months

RFS is defined as the time from randomization to any recurrence (local, locoregional, regional, or distant) as assessed by the investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. The RFS as assessed by the investigator is presented for all randomized participants. Protocol pre-specified final analysis for this outcome measure was conducted with the primary completion data cut-off.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event (AE)Up to approximately 31 months

An adverse event (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. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants who experienced an AE is presented.

Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Treatment Due to an AEUp to approximately 31 months

An adverse event (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. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants who discontinued study treatment due to an AE is presented.
