DAR-UM-2: This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the combination of two targeted therapies compared with Investigator's choice of treatment (which may include immunotherapy or chemotherapy) in people with metastatic uveal (ocular) melanomaIDE196 (Darovasertib) in Combination With Crizotinib Versus Investigator's Choice of Treatment as First-line Therapy in HLA-A2 Negative Metastatic Uveal Melanoma

Clinical summary

Summary

This study is evaluating targeted therapy (Darovasertib, also called IDE196) in combination with another type of targeted therapy (called Crizotinib) compared to the comparator arm of Investigator's choice of treatment (either pembrolizumab, ipilimumab + nivolumab, or dacarbazine).

The Phase 2a dose optimisation stage will evaluate two doses of IDE196 in combination with crizotinib comapred to the comparator arm. Participants will be randomly allocated to the three treatment arms. At the point of optimal IDE196 + crizotinib dose selection, the other dose arm will be dropped with discontinuation of enrollment to that arm. Participants receiving the IDE196 dose (in combination with crizotinib) that is not seelcted, will be offered the choice to remain on the same dose or change to the chosen optimal dose.

The optimal dose will be chosen to complete the Phase 2b portion. THe Phase 2b part of the study will continue to enroll the chosen combination dose of IDE196 + crizotinib compared with the comparator arm. Participants will be randomly allocated to the two treatment arms. 

The Phase 3 part of the study will continue to enroll the chosen combination dose of IDE196 + crizotinib compared with the comparator arm. Participants will be randomised to the two treatment arms.
