    I think everybody has suggested proven good therapeutic options in this case. Clinical trial is always an option, if you have one open at your site for such a patient. Having said this, we don't actually know what is the best 2nd line treatment after failing adjuvant anti-PD-1 or first line anti-PD-1. There are no prospective randomized trials looking at BRAF/MEK, IPI or IPI/NIVO in this situation. From some retrospective series, IPI/NIVO seems superior to IPI alone. BRAF/MEK obviously also an option, but only for those with a BRAF mutation.
