Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Provision of written informed consent for participation.
  • ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Performance status ECOG/WHO 0-1.
  • Adequate organ functions as per standards for immunotherapy.
  • Radical surgery for CMM (including acral) stage IIb-c, III (including in transit) and IV. Stage III CMM patients with unknown primary and stage IIb-c CMM patients who have not undergone sentinel node procedure are eligible.
  • A complete physical examination within 28 days prior to randomization
  • Previous adjuvant treatment with BRAF + MEK inhibitors is allowed.
  • Neoadjuvant treatment with immunotherapy for two months (currently pembrolizumab every third weeks three times or nivolumab every fourth week two times) is allowed providing that a complete or near complete pathological response was not achieved and patients with clear progressive disease according to the pathology report are not eligible.
  • All participants who have not received neo-adjuvant treatment must have disease-free status documented by radiological assessment within 28 days prior to randomization while 6 weeks is sufficient for neo-adjuvant treated patients.
  • Participants must be off immunosuppressive doses of systemic steroids (\>10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) for a minimum of 14 days prior to study drug administration.
  • Sufficient renal function for radiological assessments with i.v. contrast.
  • Peri-operative radiation therapy is allowed.
  • Patients who experience a locoregional lymph node relapse, i.e. stage III disease or operable stage IV at a time-point later than primary diagnosis are welcome to participate.

Exclusion

  • The patient is, in the opinion of the investigator, assessed as unfit to receive systemic adjuvant treatment.
  • Serious and/or uncontrolled medical disorder that in the opinion of the investigator is contraindicated.
  • An active, known, or suspected autoimmune disease. Participants with type I diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism requiring hormone replacement only and skin disorders (such as vitiligo, psoriasis, or alopecia) not requiring systemic treatment are eligible.
  • Life-expectancy less than 2 years due to concurrent disease (e.g., cardiac disease and liver cirrhosis).
  • Inability to provide informed consent or refusal to do so.
  • Inability to comply with the study protocol.
  • Participation in other clinical trials interfering with the current study protocol.
  • Existing or previous malignancies within the past 5 years (except for in situ breast and in situ cervical cancer, melanoma in situ, malignant melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancer and low risk prostate cancer).
  • Pregnancy or planned pregnancy.
  • Ocular and mucosal melanoma.
