    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Disease Control Rate (DCR) Status at Week 18 [Week 18]

      Disease Control Rate was defined as any participant who achieved a complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or who remained stable (SD) as defined in Recist v1.1 at week 18.

    2. Time to Treatment Failure (TTF) [The time from treatment initiation until a subsequent therapy is started or death.]

      Time to Treatment Failure is defined as the time from treatment initiation until the participant starts a subsequent therapy or death, whichever comes first.

    3. Overall Survival (OS) [Death]

      Overall Survival is defined as the time of treatment initiation to death by any cause

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years and Older
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    No
    Main Inclusion Criteria:
    1. American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) (2009) Stage IV cutaneous melanoma or Stage III cutaneous, acral or mucosal melanoma that is judged inoperable. Patients with a history of uveal melanoma are not eligible.

    2. Measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as >20 mm with conventional techniques or as >10 mm with computerized tomography (CT) scan. Patients must have at least one measurable lesion by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) and a separate lesion amenable to biopsy.

    3. Histologic proof of melanoma reviewed and confirmed by the enrolling site.

    4. Previous treatment with a programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) or programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor with documented progression of disease on most recent CT scan. Progression of disease is defined as 1) the appearance of a new measureable lesion (>10 mm) on cross-sectional imaging or physical examination OR 2) enlargement of previously detected lesions on two consecutive imaging studies OR 3) enlargement of a previously detected lesion with correlative symptomatology on one cross-sectional imaging study. Patients remain eligible if they had a previous response to a PD-1 inhibitor, including patients who had a complete response, partial response or stable disease (SD). Primary progressing patients are defined as those who received anti-PD-1 therapy within 2 months of study enrollment. Patients with relapsed disease are defined as those who received their last dose of PD-1 blocking antibody ≥2 months prior to enrollment.

    5. Patients who received adjuvant PD-1 therapy who then develop measurable disease are eligible. However, they must have received their last dose of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade within two months of enrollment in this study. They will be stratified with patients who have primary progressive disease.

    6. Life expectancy of greater than 3 months.

    7. Age ≥ 18 years old.

    8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status = 0 or 1 or Karnofsky Performance Status equivalent.

    9. Patients must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below:

    10. White blood cells >2, 000/microliter (mcL)

    11. Absolute neutrophil count >1,500/mcL

    12. Platelets >100,000/mcL

    13. Hemoglobin > 9.0 g/dL

    14. Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X institution's upper limit of normal

    15. Aspartate aminotransferase (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase)/alanine aminotransferase (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase) ≤ 2.5 X institution's upper limit of normal for patients with no concurrent liver metastases, OR ≤ 5 X institution's upper limit of normal for patients with concurrent liver metastases

    16. Serum creatinine < 1.5x OR creatinine clearance of at least 40

    17. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to the start of study drug. A woman of childbearing potential is defined as any female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone surgical sterilization (hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy) or is not postmenopausal. Menopause is defined clinically as 12 months of amenorrhea in a woman over age 50 in the absence of other biologic or physiologic causes.

    18. Women with child bearing potential and men with reproductive potential must be willing to practice acceptable methods of contraception.

    19. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

    20. Willingness to undergo biopsy of metastatic site or site of unresectable disease prior to randomization.

    Main Exclusion Criteria:
    1. History of another malignancy except for those who have been disease-free for 3 years, or patients with a history of completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer and/or patients with indolent secondary malignancies not requiring active therapy, are eligible.
