Ipilimumab plus nivolumab versus nivolumab alone in patients with melanoma brain metastases (ABC): 7-year follow-up of a multicentre, open-label, randomised, phase 2 study
Our findings suggest that ipilimumab plus nivolumab maintains efficacy to at least 7 years in patients with active asymptomatic brain metastasis. Upfront ipilimumab plus nivolumab should be the standard of care for patients with melanoma brain metastasis; a trial investigating the role of stereotactic surgery in this new paradigm is ongoing.
