Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to learn if intismeran autogene which is an individualized neoantigen therapy (INT; formerly, called messenger ribonucleic acid \[mRNA\]-4157) with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) is safe and prevents cancer from returning in people with high-risk melanoma. Researchers want to know if intismeran autogene with pembrolizumab is better than receiving pembrolizumab alone at preventing the cancer from returning.

Primary Outcome

RFS is defined as the length of time from when the participant starts the study until either the cancer comes back, or the cancer spreads as assessed by the investigator, or death due to any cause.
