A Study to Evaluate Whether Participants With Melanoma Prefer Subcutaneous vs Intravenous Administration of Nivolumab and Nivolumab + Relatlimab Fixed-dose Combinations

The purpose of this study is to assess the patient's preference for nivolumab subcutaneous (SC) or nivolumab + relatlimab fixed-dose combination (FDC) SC and provide patient experience data by route of administration. This study will also generate safety data which will further characterize the safety profile of patients switching the route of administration from intravenous (IV) to SC.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Evaluable Participants That Prefer SC Route of Administration Using the Patient Experience and Preference Questionnaire (PEPQ) (Question 7) After Cycle 4 Day 1 Dose

    Time frame: Cycle 4 Day 1 (each cycle consist of 4 weeks)

    PEPQ included 7 items 1. Pain or Discomfort (rated on 1 to 10 scale), 2. Length of time related to administration 3. Length of time related to administration impact amount of time to speak to doctor or nurse about illness or concern 4. Length of time for administration impact time to interact or socialize with other individuals 5. Convenience 6. Satisfaction 7. Choice of which route of administration would be preferred. 95% CI exact confidence interval was reported.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events and Deaths

    Time frame: First dose (Day 1) and 30 days after last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 16 months)

    An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence that begins or worsens after the first dose of study treatment, including any unfavorable sign, symptom, disease, or abnormal lab finding, whether or not related to the product, and may include worsening of pre-existing conditions. A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that results in death, is life-threatening, requires or prolongs hospitalization, causes persistent or significant disability/incapacity, leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is considered an important medical event requiring intervention to prevent these outcomes.

  2. Number of Participants With Laboratory Abnormalities and Immune Mediate Adverse Event

    Time frame: From first dose (Day 1) and up to study completion (up to approximately 45 months)
