Study Summary

At least 50% of patients with high-risk primary uveal melanoma will develop a recurrence following treatment of the primary tumour. Observation is currently the standard of care in the non-metastatic setting. Tebentafusp is the first agent proven to improve overall survival in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma in a randomized trial. Based on the results in the advanced setting, it is hypothesized that treatment with tebentafusp may reduce the risk of development of disease recurrence.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Primary non-metastatic UM, except iris melanoma, after definitive treatment eitherby surgery or radiotherapy

  • Time from primary treatment smaller than 11 weeks (note that the maximum timebetween primary treatment and randomization is 12 weeks )

  • High-risk according to either 1) clinical criteria: TNM (AJCC8) stage III or 2)genetic criteria: monosomy 3 or GEP class 2. Prior to enrolment of the firstpatient, each site will declare which of the two genetic criteria it uses. Patientswith stage I and stage II are only eligible if they meet the genetic criteriondeclared by the site.

  • ECOG performance status of 0 or 1

  • 18 years or older

  • HLA-A*02:01 positivity by local assessment

  • No evidence of UM recurrence, as evidenced by the required baseline imagingperformed within 4 weeks prior to randomization

  • Adequate organ function

  • Time-interval between the end of primary treatment and the randomization less thanor equal to 12 weeks

  • Evidence of post-menopausal status or negative urinary or serum pregnancy test forwomen of childbearing potential (WOCBP) within 3 days prior to randomization.

  • For patients of childbearing / reproductive potential, agreement to use adequatebirth control measures during the study treatment period and for at least 6 monthsafter the last dose of treatment. A highly effective method of birth control isdefined as a method which results in a low failure rate (i.e., less than 1% peryear) when used consistently and correctly.

  • For female subjects who are breast feeding, agreement to discontinue nursing priorto the first dose of study treatment and until 6 months after the last studytreatment.

  • Written informed consent according to ICH/GCP and local regulations

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Clinically significant cardiac disease or impaired cardiac function, including anyof the following:

  • Clinically significant and/or uncontrolled heart disease such as congestive heartfailure (New York Heart Association grade ≥ 2), uncontrolled hypertension, orclinically significant arrhythmia currently requiring medical treatment

  • QTcF > 470 msec on screening electrocardiogram (ECG) or congenital long QT syndromebased on at least 3 ECGs obtained over a brief time interval (i.e., within 30minutes)

  • Acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris < 6 months prior toscreening

  • Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy. Patients requiring systemicantibiotics for infection must have completed therapy at least 1 week prior torandomization

  • Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease or active infectionincluding hepatitis B, hepatitis C and known active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) defined as >200 copies of HIV per ml of blood, active bleeding diatheses orrenal transplant. NOTE: testing for HIV, HBV, and HCV status prior to enrolment isnot necessary unless clinically indicated.

  • Participant with history of HBV infection will be eligible if on stable anti-viraltherapy for > 4 weeks prior to the planned first dose of study intervention andviral load confirmed as undetectable during Screening.

  • Participant with history of HBC infection will be eligible the participant hasreceived curative treatment and viral load was confirmed as undetectable duringScreening.

  • History of another primary malignancy except for adequately treated basal orsquamous cell carcinoma of the skin or cancer of the cervix in situ and with thefollowing exception. Patients with a history of another primary cancer treated withcurative intent more than 3 years before study entry, who are not receiving anyanti-cancer therapy, have a risk of disease recurrence lower than 10% as evaluatedby the local Investigator, and who have no toxicity from previous treatment areeligible.

  • Participants with active autoimmune disease requiring immunosuppressive treatment,including inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease), within 2 years of screening. NOTE: The following exceptions are permitted:

  • Vitiligo

  • Alopecia

  • Managed hypothyroidism (on stable replacement doses)

  • Asymptomatic adrenal insufficiency (on stable replacement doses)

  • Psoriasis

  • Resolved childhood asthma/atopy

  • Well-controlled asthma

  • Type I diabetes mellitus

  • Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentiallyhampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; thoseconditions should be assessed and discussed with the patient before the enrolment inthe trial.

  • Known contraindication to imaging tracer or any product of contrast media and MRIand/or CT contraindications
