A Randomized, Open-label, Phase II Open Platform Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Novel Spartalizumab (PDR001) Combinations in Previously Treated Unresectable or Metastatic Melanoma

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of novel spartalizumab (PDR001)
combinations in previously treated unresectable or metastatic melanoma


Key inclusion criteria:

- Histologically confirmed unresectable or metastatic stage IIIB/C/D or IV melanoma
using AJCC edition 8

- Previously treated for unresectable or metastatic melanoma:

- Subjects with V600BRAF wild-type disease must have received prior therapy with
checkpoint inhibitor therapy (i.e. anti-PD-1/PD-L1 single-agent, or in combination
with anti-CTLA-4) and must have had objective evidence of disease progression (i.e.
RECIST v1.1) while on or after this therapy.

- Disease progression on or after prior therapy must have occurred within 12 weeks
prior to randomization in the study.

- The last dose of prior therapy (anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 or anti-CTLA-4) must have
been received more than 4 weeks prior to randomization.

- Subjects with V600BRAF mutant disease must have received prior therapy with checkpoint
inhibitor therapy (i.e. anti-PD-1/PD-L1 single-agent, or in combination with
anti-CTLA-4) and must have had objective evidence of disease progression (i.e. RECIST
v1.1) while on or after this therapy. Subjects must also have received prior therapy
with a V600BRAF inhibitor, either as a single-agent or in combination with a MEK
inhibitor.

- Disease progression on or after prior therapy must have occurred within 12 weeks
prior to randomization in the study.

- The last dose of prior therapy must have been received more than 4 weeks (for
anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 or anti-CTLA-4) or more than 2 weeks (for V600BRAF or MEK
inhibitor) prior to randomization.

- ECOG performance status 0-2

- At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1

- At least one lesion, suitable for sequential mandatory tumor biopsies (screening and
on-treatment) in accordance with the biopsy guidelines specified in protocol. The same
lesion must be biopsied sequentially.

- Screening tumor biopsy must fulfill the tissue quality criteria outlined in the
protocol, as assessed by a local pathologist

Key exclusion criteria common to all combination arms:

- Subjects with uveal or mucosal melanoma

- Presence of clinically active or unstable brain metastasis. Note: Subjects with
unstable brain lesions who have been definitively treated with stereotactic radiation
therapy, surgery or gamma knife therapy are eligible.

- Subjects with brain lesions who are untreated (i.e. newly discovered brain
lesions during screening) or received whole brain radiation must have documented
stable disease as assessed by two consecutive assessments ≥ 4 weeks apart and
have not required steroids for at least ≥ 4 weeks prior to randomization.

- Use of any live vaccines against infectious diseases within 3 months before
randomization.

- Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy at time of randomization.

- Systemic chronic steroid therapy (˃ 10mg/day prednisone or equivalent) or any other
immunosuppressive therapy administered within 7 days prior to randomization. Note:
Local steroids such as topical, inhaled, nasal and ophthalmic steroids are allowed.

- Active, known or suspected autoimmune disease or a documented history of autoimmune
disease. Note: Subjects with vitiligo, controlled type I diabetes mellitus on stable
insulin dose, residual autoimmune-related hypothyroidism only requiring hormone
replacement or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment are permitted.

- Prior allogenic bone marrow or solid organ transplant

- History of known hypersensitivity to any of the investigational drugs used in this
study

- Prior systemic therapy for unresectable or metastatic melanoma except anti-PD-1/PD-L1
single-agent or in combination with anti-CTLA-4, or V600BRAF and MEK inhibitors.

- Medical history or current diagnosis of myocarditis

- Cardiac Troponin T (TnT) level > 2 x ULN at screening
