Detaljeret beskrivelse
The introduction of ICIs a decade ago revolutionized the treatment of various malignancies, particularly melanoma. Yet treatment responses are heterogenous and depend on patient characteristics such as sex and age, and tumor characteristics. The relationship between sex and ICI response in melanoma is complex and may be influenced by various factors, including the type of ICI, tumor mutation burden, presence of infiltrating immune cells, microbiome, and concomitant medications affect the immune system's ability to mount antitumor responses. While some retrospective data indicate poorer outcomes for female patients, in other real-world reports female sex is associated with better outcomes. Prospective, sex-stratified clinical studies are necessary to provide a definitive answer and to integrate sex as a critical variable in personalizing melanoma treatment strategies. Temporal variations in antibody responses and anticancer immunity after vaccination have been reported in both humans and mice. Circadian rhythms also remain an important regulator of immune cell activities. The optimal time for inducing adaptive immune responses consistently appears to be situated around or just before behavioral activity; for nocturnal mice this optimal window appears to be the afternoon, while in diurnal humans this may be the early morning. However, the optimal time of day for ICI administration is currently unknown. A retrospective single-center analysis of advanced melanoma patients showed that receiving less than 20% of the ICI infusions after 16h30 was associated with enhanced overall survival. In subgroup analyses, female patients had a significantly longer OS when less than 20% of the treatment was administered after 16h30.
Optimizing the timing of ICI therapy to target the immune system at the time of its highest sensitivity could significantly improve patient outcomes, particularly for female patients, without exposing patients to additional drugs and generating additional toxicity and costs. Given the limitations of retrospective analyses, a prospective randomized trial is essential to obtain results that could potentially change clinical practice.

Beskrivelse
Inclusion Criteria:
- Written informed consent according to Swiss law and ICH GCP E6 regulations before registration and prior to any trial specific procedures.
- Histologically confirmed unresectable cutaneous stage III or stage IV melanoma. Note: Participants with central nervous system (CNS) metastases are eligible.
- Participants with a previously treated other malignancy are eligible, if the risk of the prior malignancy interfering with either safety or efficacy endpoints is very low.
- Measurable or evaluable disease.
- Age ≥ 18 years.
- Patients deemed suitable for ICI therapy based on the local investigator's clinical assessment.
- ECOG performance status 0-2.
- Women of childbearing potential must use effective contraception , not be pregnant or lactating and agree not to become pregnant during trial treatment and until 5 months after the last dose of trial treatment. A negative pregnancy test before inclusion into the trial is required for all women of childbearing potential.
- Men agree not to donate sperm or to father a child during trial treatment and until 5 months after the last dose of trial treatment.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior treatment with any systemic anti-cancer therapy; with the exception of prior adjuvant anti-PD-1 or BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy if the time from last dose to recurrence is more than 6 months.
- Recent treatment (within 28 days prior to first dose) with any experimental drug.
- Known history of allogeneic organ transplant.
- Uveal or mucosal melanoma.
- Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to first dose.
- Any concomitant drugs contraindicated for use with the trial drugs according to the approved product information.
- Known hypersensitivity to trial drug(s) or to any component of the trial drug(s).
- Any other serious underlying medical, psychiatric, psychological, familial or geographical condition, which in the judgment of the investigator may interfere with the planned staging, treatment and follow-up, affect participant compliance or place the participant at high risk from treatment-related complications.
