Brief Summary:
This study is an open-label, 2-part, Phase 2, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profiles of botensilimab as monotherapy and in combination with balstilimab in participants with advanced cutaneous melanoma refractory to checkpoint inhibitor therapy.
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Advanced Melanoma | Drug: Botensilimab Drug: Balstilimab | Phase 2 |
This Phase 2 study will enroll up to approximately 220 evaluable adult participants with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of either Stage III (unresectable) or Stage IV cutaneous melanoma and who have had prior treatments with anti-programmed death (ligand) 1 [PD-(L)1].
This study will consist of 2 parts. Part 1 consists of 2 cohorts (Cohorts A and B) that will receive botensilimab monotherapy. In Cohort A, participants refractory to PD-(L)1 will receive botensilimab. In Cohort B, participants refractory to PD-(L)1 and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) will receive botensilimab. Part 2 consists of Cohorts A and B that will receive botensilimab combination therapy. In Cohort A, participants refractory to PD-(L)1 will receive botensilimab in combination with balstilimab. In Cohort B, participants refractory to PD-(L)1 and CTLA-4 will receive botensilimab in combination with balstilimab.

-
Active brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases with the following exceptions:

These participants must be off steroids ≥ 10 days prior to randomization for the purpose of managing their brain metastases. Repeat brain imaging following surgical resection or stereotactic radiosurgery is not required if their last brain magnetic resonance imaging is within screening window.

- Concurrent malignancy (present during screening) requiring treatment or history of prior malignancy active within 2 years prior to the first dose of study treatment (that is, participants with a history of prior malignancy are eligible if treatment was completed at least 2 years before the first dose of study treatment and the participant has no evidence of disease). Participants with history of prior early-stage basal/squamous cell skin cancer, low-risk prostate cancer eligible for active surveillance or noninvasive or in situ cancers who have undergone definitive treatment at any time are also eligible.
- Incomplete resolution of clinically significant adverse events related to most recent therapy/intervention prior to enrollment.
- Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine or booster < 7 days before C1D1. For vaccines requiring more than 1 dose, the full series should be completed prior to C1D1, when feasible. A booster shot is not required but also must be administered > 7 days from C1D1 or > 7 days from future cycle on study.

- Participants with a condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (> 10 milligrams [mg] daily prednisone equivalent) within 14 days or another immunosuppressive medication within 30 days of the first dose of study treatment. Inhaled or topical steroids, and adrenal replacement steroid doses > 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent, are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune disease.
- Active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disease that required systemic treatment within 2 years before starting study treatment (that is, with use of disease-modifying agents or immunosuppressive drugs).
- History or current evidence of any condition, co-morbidity, therapy, any active infections, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the participants participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the participant to participate, in the opinion of the treating Investigator.
- A WOCBP who is pregnant or breastfeeding or WOCBP who are not willing to employ effective birth control from screening to 90 days after the last dose of botensilimab (whichever is later).
- Previous SARS-CoV-2 infection within 10 days for mild or asymptomatic infections or 20 days for severe/critical illness prior to C1D1.
- Uncontrolled infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Participants on stable highly active antiretroviral therapy with undetectable viral load and normal cluster of differentiation 4 counts for at least 6 months prior to study entry are eligible. Serological testing for HIV at screening is not required.
- Known to be positive for hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen, or any other positive test for HBV indicating acute or chronic infection. Participants who are receiving or who have received anti-HBV therapy and have undetectable HBV DNA for at least 6 months prior to study entry are eligible. Serological testing for HBV at screening is not required.
- Known active hepatitis C virus (HCV) as determined by positive serology and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Participants on or who have received antiretroviral therapy are eligible, provided they are virus-free by PCR for at least 6 months prior to study entry. Serological testing for HCV at screening is not required.
- Dependence on total parenteral nutrition.
