Hepzato Kit and Opdualag for Metastatic Melanoma and Liver Metastasis

A Phase 1b/2 Trial Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy of Melphalan Percutaneous Hepatic Perfusion Therapy (HEPZATO KIT™) With Nivolumab and Relatlimab (Opdualag) in Patients With Metastatic Melanoma and Liver Metastasis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study is being done to see if combining HEPZATO KIT™ with nivolumab and relatlimab (Opdualag™) in patients with metastatic melanoma with liver metastasis is safe, tolerable, and will have a synergistic effect leading to improved clinical outcomes compared to the historic cohort of patients with liver metastasis treated with combination immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior treatment with HEPZATO KIT™ or nivolumab and relatlimab (Opdualag™)
  • Radiotherapy is permitted within 30 days prior to C1D1 as long as radiation is given with palliative intent and towards a non-target lesion.
  • History of hypersensitivity or treatment discontinuation due to grade 3+ immune-related adverse events (irAEs) from prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. Patients who are able to successfully resume immune checkpoint therapy without recurrence of grade 3 irAEs are eligible to participate.
  • Symptomatic or uncontrolled brain metastases, leptomeningeal disease, or spinal cord compression not definitively treated with surgery or radiation.
  • Organ transplant recipients

Other

  • Prednisone use greater than or equal to 10 mg/d or equivalent

Who the study is looking for

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic melanoma with liver metastasis (LM). Liver biopsy positive for presence of melanoma metastases is required.
  • 0-1 line of prior systemic therapy in the unresectable/metastatic setting - prior adjuvant anti-programmed cell death-1 (anti-PD-1) or BRAF/MEK targeted therapy is considered 1 line of prior systemic therapy if less than 6 months from the last treatment.
  • Evaluable/measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1.
  • Demonstrate adequate organ function; all screening labs to be obtained within 28 days prior to registration.
  • Patients must weigh greater than or equal to 35 kilograms (due to possible size limitations with respect to percutaneous catheterization of the femoral artery and vein using the Delcath Hepatic Delivery System).
