Measure Description: Membranous PD-L1 expression in tumor and tumor-associated immune cells was assessed by immunohistochemistry assay and scored on a unique melanoma (Allred Proportion Score [APS]/Melanoma [MEL]) scale of 0 to 5 points. Participants with an APS score of ≥2 (membranous staining in ≥1% of cells) were considered to be PD-L1 Positive and participants with an APS score of 0 or 1 were considered to be PD-L1 Negative.
1.Primary Outcome
Title Progression-free Survival (PFS) - Initial Treatment Period
Hide Description PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Per Response Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1), PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Note: The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered PD. Analysis of PFS was based on an integrated radiology and oncology (IRO) assessment and was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median PFS based on the product limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data is presented. This was the final analysis for PFS.
Time Frame Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)

Title Overall Response Rate (ORR) - Initial Treatment Period
Hide Description ORR was defined as the percentage of participants who had a Complete Response (CR: Disappearance of all target lesions) or a Partial Response (PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) as assessed using RECIST 1.1. Analysis of ORR was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. The percentage of participants who experienced a CR or PR is presented. This was the final analysis for ORR.
