Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well ibrutinib works in treating patients with stage IV melanoma of the skin that has not responded to previous treatment. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Primary Outcome

Antitumor response defined as the sum of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR). CR is the disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm (\<1 cm). PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
