Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with HLA‑A*02:01 positive, unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma who are on first‑line tebentafusp, have ECOG 0–1, and have tebentafusp toxicities resolved to grade ≤1.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are HLA‑A*02:01 negative, not receiving tebentafusp, pregnant or lactating, or with poor performance status or unresolved high‑grade tebentafusp toxicity are unlikely to benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This Phase 1 program adds the PI3Kδ inhibitor roginolisib to standard tebentafusp treatment beginning in cycle 4 for adults with unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma who are HLA‑A*02:01 positive and have ECOG 0–1. Participants must be receiving first‑line tebentafusp and have any tebentafusp‑related toxicities resolved to grade ≤1. The study’s primary focus is safety and tolerability while measuring effects on T‑cell homeostasis, with exploratory biomarker and preliminary efficacy endpoints. Treatment is being delivered at St Vincent’s Hospital (Sydney) and The Alfred (Melbourne) with close monitoring for immune and hematologic safety.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the combination could prolong functional T‑cell responses and potentially improve disease control in metastatic uveal melanoma.
How similar studies have gone: Tebentafusp has shown survival benefit in metastatic uveal melanoma, while combining it with PI3Kδ inhibitors like roginolisib is a novel strategy supported by preclinical rationale but with limited clinical data so far.

7. Male and female participants of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized partner must agree to use highly effective methods of birth control (eg double barrier) from the trial screening date until 6 months after the final dose of the program intervention; cessation of birth control after this point shall be discussed with a responsible physician.
8. Pregnant or lactating women are prohibited from enrolling on this program.
9. Male participants are not allowed to donate sperm from the time of enrolment until 6 months post- administration of program interventions.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Presence of untreated or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases, leptomeningeal disease, or cord compression. NOTE: Participants with treated CNS lesions may enroll provided all of the following apply:
1. Treated CNS lesions must be radiographically stable for ≥ 4 weeks after intervention (surgery and/or radiation).
2. Participants must be neurologically stable off systemic corticosteroids for at least 2 weeks prior to trial entry
2. Ongoing Grade 2 or greater treatment related toxicity due to tebentafusp
3. Prior treatment with a PI3Kδ inhibitor
4. Prior Grade 4 cytokine release syndrome related to Tebentafusp
5. Systemic treatment with steroids or any other immunosuppressive drug use within 2 weeks of the planned first dose of program intervention, with the following exceptions:
1. Treatment for well-controlled and asymptomatic adrenal insufficiency is permitted, but replacement dosing is limited to prednisone ≤ 10 mg daily or the equivalent.
2. Local or topical steroid therapies (eg, optic, ophthalmic, intra- articular, or inhaled medications) are acceptable.
3. Premedication for allergy to contrast reagent.
6. Any relevant medical condition, which in the opinion of the treating physician, would prevent the participant enrolling into the Program due to concerns related to safety, compliance with procedures, or interpretation of program results.
7. Inability to swallow food or any condition of the upper gastrointestinal tract that precludes administration of oral medications.
8. Chronic viral infections as indicated below. NOTE: Testing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and hepatitis C virus (HCV) status prior to enrollment is not necessary unless clinically indicated.
9. Known HIV infection unless all of the following are applicable:
1. Receiving an approved, stable, effective combination antiretroviral therapy regimen for ≥3 months prior to the planned first study intervention
2. CD4 T-cell count \>350 cells/µl
3. CD4 T-cell nadir (lowest historical count) \< 350 cells/µl

10. Known HBV infection, unless on stable anti-viral therapy for \> 4 weeks prior to the planned first dose of program intervention and viral load confirmed as undetectable during Screening.
11. Known HCV infection, unless the participant has received curative treatment, and viral load was confirmed as undetectable during Screening.
