Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Experimental: Nivolumab, 3 mg/kg - Participants received nivolumab, 3 mg/kg, solution administered Intravenously (IV) every 2 weeks until disease progression, discontinuation due to toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or study completion. Eligible participants may switch to nivolumab at 480mg every 4 weeks until documented disease progression, discontinuation, withdrawal of consent or the study ends.

Active comparator: Dacarbazine, 1000 mg/m^2 - Participants received dacarbazine, 1000 mg/m\^2, solution administered IV every 3 weeks until disease progression, discontinuation due to toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or study completion. Eligible participants may cross-over to nivolumab open label treatment, either 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks or 480mg every 4 weeks until documented disease progression, discontinuation, withdrawal of consent or the study ends.
