Inclusion Criteria:
- Signed Written Informed Consent
- Histologically confirmed Stage III (unresectable) or Stage IV melanoma
- Must have failed at least one systemic therapy for malignant melanoma or be intolerant to at least one prior systemic treatment. Note: Enrollees must not be eligible for a clinical study with Ipilimumab
- Subjects with asymptomatic brain metastases are eligible
- Primary ocular and mucosal melanomas are allowed
- Must be at least 28 days since treatment with chemotherapy, biochemotherapy, or immunotherapy, and recovered from any clinically significant toxicity experienced during treatment. Must have recovered from prior surgery or radiation. Systemic corticosteroids should be eliminated or weaned to the minimum dose before starting Ipilimumab treatment. Consult with the Medical Monitor for individual subjects

- Men and women, at least 16 years of age
- Prior treatment with an anti-Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte Associated Protein 4 (CTLA-4) drug is allowed provided therapy was not discontinued to to drug-related toxicity
- Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and their partners must use highly effective methods of birth control (double barrier, e.g, condom or diaphragm or cervical cap associated with spermicide or intrauterine device combined with another form of birth control) for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug to minimize the risk of pregnancy
- WOCBP must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) at Screening and within 24 hours prior to the start of investigational product
- Women who are not of childbearing potential (i.e., who are postmenopausal or surgically sterile
- Men of fathering potential must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid conception throughout the study and for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of investigational product in such a manner that the risk of pregnancy is minimized
Exclusion Criteria:
- Women of Child-Bearing Potential (WOCBP) who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study and for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of investigational product
- WOCBP using a prohibited contraceptive method
- Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Women with a positive pregnancy test on enrollment or before investigational product administration
- Subjects on any other systemic therapy for cancer, including any other experimental treatment
- Prior treatment with an anti CTLA 4 antibody if treatment failure was due to Immune-Related Adverse Events (irAEs) or discontinuation was due to an Adverse Event (AE)/Serious Adverse Event (SAE)
- Any subject enrolled in a registrational study (ie, CA184024) that has a survival endpoint should not be enrolled in CA184-045. Also, if a subject is eligible for a treatment study, he or she is not eligible for this study
- Presence of active autoimmune disease
- Presence of known hepatitis B or hepatitis C (active) infection, regardless of control on antiviral therapy
- Any subject who has a life threatening condition that requires high-dose immunosuppressants
- Subjects with melanoma who have another active, concurrent, malignant disease, with the exception of adequately treated basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix
- Any non-oncology vaccine therapy used for prevention of infectious diseases for up to 4 weeks before or after any dose of Ipilimumab, with the exceptions of Amantadine and Flumadine
- Any subject enrolled in a registrational study (ie, CA184-024) that has a survival as a primary endpoint should not be enrolled in CA184-045. Also, if a subject is eligible for a treatment study, he or she is not eligible for this study
- Subjects from studies CA184-042, CA184-078 or CA184-087, who are being followed for survival only or for scans only are not eligible for this study
