About this trial

This is a randomised, multicentre, multinational, double-blind, integrated study to sompare the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of MB11 versus Opdivo® in subjects with previously untreated advanced (unresectable or Metastatic) Melanoma

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥18 years at the time of signing the informed consent (or adulthood where the legalage of majority in the country is established >18 years).

Body weight ≥50 kg at baseline.

Signed informed consent must be obtained before initiation of any study-specific procedures or treatment.

ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.

Disqualifiers

At least 1 measurable disease lesion by CT or MRI per RECIST v1.1 criteria.

Tumour tissue from an unresectable or metastatic site of disease, collected within 90 days prior to randomisation, must be available and provided for PD-L1 testing. All samples must be classified as PD-L1 positive (≥1% to <5% or ≥5%). If only the old sample >90 days is available and there is no possibility of having a new biopsy sample, then the subject will be excluded.

In the case of prior palliative radiotherapy (on metastatic lesions), this must have been completed at least 2 weeks prior to the study drug administration. No adjuvant radiation therapies are allowed.

Any BRAF mutation status is allowed (BRAF-mutated, BRAF wild-type or non-mutated, or BRAF status unknown).
