Outcomes after SRS and ipilimumab plus nivolumab for melanoma brain metastases following prior immune checkpoint inhibitor or targeted therapy

Concurrent SRS with ipi/nivo provides durable intracranial control with low toxicity. Patients with prior ICI or targeted therapy represent a high-risk subgroup with poorer outcomes, supporting exploration of intensified or novel strategies.
