Summary

This trial is testing a new combination of drugs to treat metastatic melanoma that has stopped responding to other treatments.

Who is the study for?
Adults with metastatic cutaneous melanoma that didn't respond to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors can join. They must have measurable disease, good organ function, and an ECOG status ≤ 1. Participants need a negative pregnancy test and agree to contraception. Exclusions include prior VEGF(R) inhibitor treatment, other cancers within 3 years (with exceptions), autoimmune diseases, recent steroids or immunosuppressants use, certain cardiovascular issues, CNS metastases unless meeting criteria, significant bleeding history or major surgery recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests the combination of Ipilimumab + Nivolumab + Cabozantinib in patients whose melanoma has not improved after anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. It aims to see if this triplet improves clinical outcomes and delays cancer progression compared to previous treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune-related reactions like inflammation in organs; skin rash; liver enzyme elevation; endocrine issues such as thyroid dysfunction; gastrointestinal problems like diarrhea; fatigue; increased risk of infections due to immune system suppression.
