Substudy 02A: Safety and Efficacy of Pembrolizumab in Combination With Investigational Agents in Participants With Programmed Cell-death 1 (PD-1) Refractory Melanoma (MK-3475-02A/KEYMAKER-U02)

This is an interventional treatment trial for Melanoma focused on measuring receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, programmed cell death 1 (PD-1, PD1), programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1, PDL1), T cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine receptor motif domains (TIGIT) Read More

Inclusion Criteria:
