Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity and efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of GME751 compared with Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in subjects with resected advanced melanoma requiring adjuvant treatment with pembrolizumab.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive either GME751, Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-licensed pembrolizumab (Keytruda-US) or European Union (EU)-authorized pembrolizumab (Keytruda-EU). The maximum study duration for a participant will be approximately 28 weeks including screening.

Treatment duration is 24 weeks (4 treatment cycles, each of 6 weeks duration). However, subject should discontinue study participation in case of disease recurrence, unacceptable toxicity or other reasons.

Participants who are benefiting from treatment with pembrolizumab without signs of recurrence or unacceptable toxicity will be eligible for continued pembrolizumab treatment via most suitable option based on the respective country regulations.
