Study Summary

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized, parallel group, treatment study to assess the efficacy and safety of lifileucel in combination with pembrolizumab compared with pembrolizumab alone in participants with untreated, unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Participants randomized to the pembrolizumab monotherapy arm who subsequently have a blinded independent central review- verified confirmed progressive disease (PD) will be offered lifileucel monotherapy in an optional crossover period.

Primary Outcome

To compare the efficacy of lifileucel plus pembrolizumab with the efficacy of pembrolizumab alone measured by objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by the blinded independent review committee (BIRC) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1
