Intervention Type: Drug
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Phase 2
SUMMARY

This study is being done to answer the following question: Can the chance of melanoma growing or spreading be lowered by receiving a treatment called LND101 for Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) in addition to the usual immunotherapy treatment called Immune Checkpoint Blockade (ICB)? FMT treatment changes the bacteria in your gut called the microbiome.

• Prior targeted therapy with BRAF/MEK inhibition in the adjuvant or advanced / metastatic setting is permitted if at least 2 weeks have elapsed between the last dose and study enrollment. Participants must have recovered to ≤ grade 1 from all toxicity related to BRAF/MEK inhibition

• Prior radiation therapy is permitted if at least 7 days have elapsed between the last fraction and study enrollment. Participants must have recovered to ≤ grade 1 from all toxicity related to prior radiotherapy.

• Previous major surgery is permitted provided that surgery occurred ≥ 14 days prior to participant enrollment and that wound healing has occurred.

• Participants must demonstrate adequate organ function Participants must be able to ingest capsules.

• Participants must consent to provision of samples of blood and stool for correlative marker analysis.

• Participants must consent to provision of, and investigator must agree to submit, a representative archival formalin fixed paraffin block of tumour tissue for correlative analyses when tumour tissue is available.

• Participants must have access to provincially-funded standard-of-care ICB treatment.

• Participant consent must be appropriately obtained in accordance with applicable local and regulatory requirements. Each participant must sign a consent form prior to enrollment in the trial to document their willingness to participate.

• Participants must be accessible for treatment and follow-up. Investigators must assure themselves the participants randomized on this trial will be available for complete documentation of the treatment, adverse events, and follow-up.

• Protocol ICB treatment must begin within 14 calendar days after participant enrollment.
