Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Participants who have been treated with whole head radiation for brain metastases
- Invasive cancers not being treated on this trial (i.e. lymphoma that received systemic therapy) diagnosed \< 3 years prior that required systemic treatment. This is intended to include a patient with melanoma who was diagnosed \< 3 years prior to screening for this trial that has received antecedent systemic therapy.
- Prior anti-cancer therapy for melanoma, renal cell cancer, or urothelial cancer less than 14 days prior to first dose of study treatment.
- Participants currently receiving systemic corticosteroids doses over 15mg prednisone or equivalent.
Other illness
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion deems the participant an unsuitable candidate to receive study treatment.
- Other active non-melanoma, non-renal cell, or non-urothelial metastatic cancers requiring systemic treatment.
- Participants with uncontrolled HIV or hepatitis.
Other
- Participants diagnosed with uveal melanoma
- Pregnant or nursing females
- Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements.
