Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1 Any active central nervous system (CNS) lesion (i.e., those with radiographically unstable, symptomatic lesions).

Patients must be off corticosteroid therapy for * 3 weeks. 2 Uveal or mucosal melanoma 3 History of leptomeningeal metastases 4 History or current evidence of central serous retinopathy (CSR) or retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or predisposing factors to RVO or CSR 5 History of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation or organ transplantation 6 History of Gilbert*s syndrome 7 Previous or concurrent malignancy with the following exceptions: * adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma * in situ carcinoma of the cervix, treated curatively and without evidence of recurrence for at least 3 years prior to the study * a primary malignancy which has been completely resected and in complete remission for *5 years 8 Prior therapy with a MEK inhibitor 9 Patients with washout period
Design outcomes
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| OS, calculated as the time from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause | — |
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| PFS, defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PFS will be determined based on tumor assessment (RECIST V1.1 criteria) as per BIRC and survival information. The local Investigator*s assessments will be used as supportive analyses. | — |
