Program Overview
The study aims to compare the effectiveness, safety, and immune response of a new treatment, ABP 206, with Nivolumab in patients who have advanced melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ABP 206 or Nivolumab and will continue treatment until their disease worsens, they experience unacceptable side effects, or they choose to stop, for up to 24 months. The entire study participation will last about 26 months for each patient.
Description
Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to receive either the new treatment, ABP 206, or the existing treatment, Nivolumab. The treatment will continue until the melanoma progresses, side effects become too severe, or the participant decides to stop, with a maximum treatment period of 24 months. The total time each participant will be involved in the study is approximately 26 months, including follow-up.
