---|---|
Experimental: IMM-101 (and nivolumab or ipilimumab)
IMM-101 given in combination with nivolumab. Patients in cohort B who fail to respond to treatment with IMM-101 and nivolumab, and who meet certain criteria, have the option to change treatment on study to IMM-101 and ipilimumab.
|
Drug: Nivolumab
Nivolumab is to be administered as a 3 mg/kg IV infusion every two weeks in accordance with the prescribing information.
Other Name: Opdivo Drug: Ipilimumab Ipilimumab, when used as subsequent treatment for patients in cohort B, is to be administered as a 3 mg/kg IV infusion over 90 minutes every three weeks for a maximum of 4 doses, in accordance with the prescribing information.
Other Name: Yervoy Drug: IMM-101 A single 0.1 mL intradermal injection of IMM 101 (10 mg/mL) given every 2 weeks for the first 3 doses followed by a rest period of 4 weeks, then one dose every 2 weeks for the next 3 doses. This is followed by a dose every 4 weeks thereafter. |
- Overall Response Rate (ORR) using RECIST 1.1 [ Time Frame: 18 months ]ORR is calculated from Best Overall Response recorded during treatment with IMM-101 + nivolumab
- The profile of adverse events experienced [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
- Progression free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
- Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Approximately 30 months ]
- Overall survival (OS) at one year [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
- Patients with values outside normal range and within normal range at post baseline assessments [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
- Local tolerability measured as injection site reactions [ Time Frame: 18 months ]

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Histologically-confirmed diagnosis of advanced (unresectable Stage III) or metastatic (Stage IV) melanoma.
- At least one measurable lesion by CT or MRI, according to RECIST 1.1.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)/World Health Organisation (WHO) Performance Status of ≤1 at Day 0.
- Known BRAF V600 mutation status or consent to BRAF V600 mutation testing during the Screening Period.
- Prior radiotherapy must have been completed at least 2 weeks prior to study drug administration (Week 0, Visit 1). Prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant melanoma therapy is permitted if it was completed at least 6 weeks prior to enrolment (Week 0, Visit 1), and all related adverse events have resolved or stabilised.
- Patient is considered suitable for treatment with nivolumab.
For cohort A, the following key inclusion criteria apply:
1. Patient is treatment-naive (i.e. no prior systemic anticancer therapy for unresectable or metastatic melanoma).
For cohort B, the following key inclusion criteria apply:
1. Patient is either currently receiving treatment with an anti-PD-1 therapy (monotherapy or in combination with ipilimumab), for advanced melanoma and has progressive disease by RECIST 1.1 after 4 or more doses; or has previously received at least 4 doses of PD-1 targeted therapy, alone or in combination with ipilimumab, had disease progression by RECIST 1.1 during this therapy and has not received any further therapy for advanced melanoma.
Key Exclusion Criteria:
- Uveal/ocular melanoma.
- Active brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases. Patients with brain metastases are eligible for cohort B of the study only, if these have been treated and there is no MRI evidence of progression for at least 8 weeks after treatment is complete and within 21 days prior to first dose of study treatment administration.
- Patient has documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease or a syndrome that requires systemic steroids or immunosuppressive agents.
- Patient has a condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (> 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent) or immunosuppressant drugs (such as azathioprine, tacrolimus, cyclosporin) within the 14 days period before the first administration of IMM-101.
For cohort A, patients meeting the following key criteria are also ineligible to participate in this study:
1. Patient has received prior therapy with an anti-programmed cell death-1 (anti-PD-1), anti-PD ligand-1 (PD-L1), anti-PD-L2, anti-CD137 antibody, or anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) agent.
For cohort B, patients meeting the following key criteria are also ineligible to participate in this study:
1. Patient has received more than one treatment regimen for advanced (stage III/IV) disease prior to their anti PD-1 therapy.
