Study design:

Intervention:

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Nivolumab
Description: Nivolumab is a fully human immunoglobulin (Ig) G4 monoclonal antibody directed against the negative immunoregulatory human cell surface receptor programmed death-1 (PD-1, PCD-1) with immune checkpoint inhibitory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, nivolumab binds to and blocks the activation of PD-1, an immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) transmembrane protein, by its ligands programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), which is overexpressed on certain cancer cells, and programmed cell death ligand 2 (PD-L2), which is primarily expressed on antigen-presenting cells (APCs). This results in the activation of T cells and cell-mediated immune responses against tumor cells. Activated PD-1 negatively regulates T-cell activation and plays a key role in tumor evasion from host immunity.
Arm group label: Part 1, Arm A: Nivolumab
Arm group label: Part 1, Arm C: Nivolumab plus ipilimumab

Other name: Opdivo

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Nivolumab + Relatlimab
Description: Opdualag (Nivolumab and Relatlimab-rmbw) is a combination formulation composed of nivolumab, a human immunoglobulin (Ig) G4 monoclonal antibody directed against the negative immunoregulatory human cell surface receptor programmed death-1 (PD-1, PCD-1), and relatlimab-rmbw, a human IgG4 monoclonal antibody directed against the inhibitor receptor lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3). Nivolumab binds to and blocks the activation of PD-1 by its ligands programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), which is overexpressed on certain cancer cells, and programmed cell death ligand 2 (PD-L2), which is primarily expressed on antigen-presenting cells (APCs). This prevents PD-1-mediated signaling and PD-1-mediated inhibition of the immune response. Relatlimab binds to LAG-3 on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and prevents LAG-3 binding to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II. This prevents LAG-3-mediated signaling and LAG-3-mediated inhibition of the immune response.
Arm group label: Part 1, Arm B: Nivolumab- Relatlimab-rmbw
Arm group label: Part 2, Arm A: Ipilimumab + Nivolumab-Relatimab-rmbw
Arm group label: Part 2, Arm B1: Triplet Combination Therapy Ipilmumab + Nivolumab-Relatlimab-rmbw
Arm group label: Part 2, Arm B2: Doublet Combination Therapy Nivolumab-Relatlimab-rmbw

Other name: Opdualag

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Ipilimumab
Description: Ipilimumab is a type of monoclonal antibody and a type of immune checkpoint inhibitor that may block CTLA-4 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Ipilimumab binds to the protein CTLA-4 to help immune cells kill cancer cells better and is used to treat many different types of cancer. These include cancers that have certain mutations (changes) in genes involved in DNA repair.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine if neoadjuvant (treatment before surgery) immunotherapy treatment based on tumor biomarkers results in better participant outcomes. Immunotherapy is the treatment of disease by using a person's own immune system. This study is divided into 2 sub-studies/parts designated Part 1 and Part 2 that will enroll in sequence starting with Part 1 followed by Part 2.

Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: - This study is divided into 2 sub-studies/parts designated Part 1 and Part 2 that will enroll in sequence starting with Part 1 followed by Part 2. In Part 2, Part 2 Cohort A and Part 2 Cohort B will enroll simultaneously. Inclusion criteria apply to Part 1 and Part 2 unless otherwise specified. - Voluntarily agree to participate by giving signed, dated, and written informed consent prior to any study-specific procedures. - 18 years of age or older - Histologic diagnosis of melanoma (cutaneous, acral, mucosal or unknown primary) belonging to the following American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition TNM stages (Tx or T1-4) and (N1b, N1c, N2b, N2c, N3b or N3c) and/or (M1a). - Requirements for prior systemic therapy for melanoma are as follows: 1.

This excludes patients who previously received adjuvant or neoadjuvant anti-PD1 plus anti-LAG3 or anti-PD1 plus anti-CTLA4. Participants who experienced progression or recurrence after anti-PD1 as monotherapy or other combinations or after BRAF-MEK inhibition would be eligible. Participants who have previously experienced prior high-grade (grade 3 or 4 by CTCAE criteria) immune related adverse events with immune checkpoint inhibitors are not eligible. - Must be considered surgically operable and may present as any of the following groups: 1. Primary melanoma with clinically apparent regional lymph node metastases, confirmed by pathological diagnosis. 2.

Clinically or histologically detected primary melanoma involving multiple regional nodal groups, confirmed by pathological diagnosis. 4. Clinically detected single site of nodal metastatic melanoma arising from an unknown primary, confirmed by pathological diagnosis. 5. Participants with in-transit or satellite metastases with or without lymph node involvement are allowed if they are considered surgically resectable at Screening by the treating surgical oncologist. 6. Participants with distant cutaneous/subcutaneous, soft tissue or nodal metastases with or without regional lymph node involvement are allowed if they are considered potentially surgically resectable and can be biopsied at Screening by the treating surgical oncologist. Elevated LDH is not an exclusion. 7.

Participants with history of prior early-stage basal/squamous cell skin cancer, low-risk prostate cancer eligible for active surveillance or noninvasive or in situ cancers who have undergone definitive treatment at any time are also eligible. - Treatment with one of the following classes of drugs within the delineated time window prior to C1D1: 1.
