A Study of Adjuvant Pembrolizumab/Vibostolimab (MK-7684A) Versus Pembrolizumab for Resected High-Risk Melanoma in Participants With High-Risk Stage II-IV Melanoma (MK-7684A-010/KEYVIBE-010)

October 3, 2025 updated by: Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC

A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-blind, Active-Comparator-Controlled Clinical Study of Adjuvant MK-7684A (Vibostolimab With Pembrolizumab) Versus Adjuvant Pembrolizumab in Participants With High-risk Stage II-IV Melanoma (KEYVIBE-010)

The primary purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab/vibostolimab to pembrolizumab with respect to recurrence-free survival (RFS). The primary hypothesis is that pembrolizumab/vibostolimab is superior to pembrolizumab with respect to RFS as assessed by the investigator in participants with high-risk resected Stage IIB, IIC, III and IV melanoma.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 13 months
RFS is defined as the time from randomization to any recurrence (local, locoregional, regional, or distant) as assessed by the investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. The RFS as assessed by the investigator is presented for all randomized participants. Protocol pre-specified final analysis for this outcome measure was conducted with the primary completion data cut-off.
Up to approximately 13 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse Event (AE)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 31 months
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants who experienced an AE is presented.
Up to approximately 31 months
Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Treatment Due to an AE
Time Frame: Up to approximately 31 months
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a study intervention. The number of participants who discontinued study treatment due to an AE is presented.
Up to approximately 31 months
