Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Have histologically or cytologically confirmed melanoma 2. Have unresectable Stage III or Stage IV melanoma, per American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system version 8, not amenable to local therapy 3. Have the presence of at least 1 measurable lesion by CT or MRI per RECIST 1.1 as confirmed by BICR. Cutaneous lesions and other superficial lesions are not considered measurable lesions for the purposes of this protocol, but may be considered as non-target lesions 4. Participants must have progressed on treatment with an anti-PD-1/L1 mAb administered either as monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies. PD-1 treatment progression is defined by meeting all of the following criteria: a. Received at least 2 doses of an anti-PD-1/L1 mAb b. Has demonstrated disease progression after PD-1/L1 as defined by RECIST 1.1. The initial evidence of RECIST 1.1 disease progression is to be confirmed using iRECIST by a second assessment no less than 4 weeks from the date of the first documented progressive disease, in the absence of rapid clinical progression c. Progressive disease has been documented within 12 weeks from the last dose of anti-PD-1/L1 mAb 5. Have submitted initial imaging 6. Have an ECOG performance status 0 to 1 7. Have provided a baseline tumor biopsy 8. Have resolution of toxic effect(s) of the most recent prior therapy to Grade 1 or less (except alopecia). If participant received major surgery or radiation therapy of >30 Gy, they must have recovered from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention 9. Be Male or Female and is at least 18 years of age at the time of providing the informed consent 10. Male participants are eligible to participate if they agree to the following during the intervention period andfor at least 95 days, corresponding to time needed to eliminate study interventions (eg, 5 terminal half-lives) after the last dose of study intervention: - Be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis) and agree to remain abstinent. OR - Must agree to use contraception unless confirmed to be azoospermic (vasectomized or secondary to medical cause [Appendix 5] as detailed below. - Agree to use a male condom plus partner use of an additional contraceptive method when having penile-vaginal intercourse with a WOCBP who is not currently pregnant. - Male participants must also agree to use a male condom when engaging in any activity that allows for passage of ejaculate to another person of any sex. 11. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least 1 of the following conditions applies: a. Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) OR b. Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), with lower user dependency, or be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their perferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis), during the intervention period and for at least 95 days, corresponding to the time needed to eliminate any study interventions (eg, 5 terminal half-lives) after the last dose of study intervention. The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (ie, noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. - A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days before the first dose of study intervention. 2. Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years. 3. Has known active CNS metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Participants with previously treated CNS metastases may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging for at least 4 weeks before the first dose of study intervention and any neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline), have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases confirmed by repeat imaging, and have not required steroids for at least 14 days before study intervention. 4. Has ocular melanoma 5. Has known hypersensitivity to active substances or any of their excipients including previous clinically significant hypersensitivity reaction to treatment with another monoclonal antibody 6. Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in past 2 years. Replacement therapy (eg, thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment 7. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy 8. Has known history of HIV (HIV 1/2 antibodies). No testing of HIV is required unless mandated by local health authority 9. Has known history of or is positive for hepatitis B (hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] reactive) or hepatitis C (HCV RNA [qualitative] is detected). No testing of hepatitis B or C is required unless mandated by local health authority 10. Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or current pneumonitis 11. Has a history of active tuberculosis 12. Has presence of a gastrointestinal condition including malabsorption, gastrointestinal anastomosis, or any other condition that might affect the absorption of lenvatinib 13. Had had major surgery within 3 weeks prior to first dose of study interventions. Note: Adequate wound healing after major surgery must be assessed clinically, independent of time elapsed for eligibility. 14. Has a pre-existing Grade =3 gastrointestinal or non-gastrointestinal fistula 15. Has radiographic evidence of major blood vessel invasion/infiltration. The degree of tumor invasion/infiltration of major blood vessels should be considered because of the potential risk of severe hemorrhage associated with tumor shrinkage/necrosis following lenvatinib therapy 16. Has clinically significant hemoptysis or tumor bleeding within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug 17. Has clinically significant cardiovascular disease within 12 months from first dose of study drug, including New York Heart Association Class III or IV congestive heart failure, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, cerebral vascular accident, or cardiac arrhythmia associated with hemodynamic instability 18. Has urine protein =1 g/24-hour 19. Has prolongation of QTc interval (calculated using Fridericia’s formula) of >480 msec 20. Has LVEF below the institutional normal range as determined by MUGA or echocardiogram 21. Has received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of Cycle 1 Day 1. Participants must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities, not require corticosteroids, and not have had radiation pneumonitis 22. H

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Progression-free survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1, modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ, assessed by BICR; PFS is defined as The time from first day of study intervention to the first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. 2. overall survival (OS), defined as The time from first day of study intervention to death due to any cause. 3. Duration of response (DOR) per RECIST 1.1, modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ, assessed by BICR; For participants who demonstrate CR or PR, DOR is defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Approximately 12 months after the allocation of last participant. No planned interim analyses will be performed. | — |
