The CheckMate 238 (NCT02388906) trial compared nivolumab with ipi10 and found that nivolumab produced superior RFS and had a more tolerable safety profile.[24] Pembrolizumab produced superior RFS compared with placebo, with data on OS still maturing in the MK-3475-054/KEYNOTE-054 trial (NCT02362594).[25] Dabrafenib plus trametinib produced superior RFS compared with placebo, with data on OS still maturing in the COMBI-AD trial (NCT01682083).[26] Single-agent BRAF-inhibitor therapy with vemurafenib did not show improved RFS compared with placebo in the BRIM8 trial (NCT01667419).[27] The benefit of immunotherapy with ipilimumab, nivolumab, and pembrolizumab has been seen regardless of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression or the presence of BRAF pathogenic variants
