Brief Summary

This phase II trial compares the effect of encorafenib, binimetinib, and nivolumab versus ipilimumab and nivolumab in treating patients with BRAF- V600 mutant melanoma that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Encorafenib and binimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Ipilimumab and nivolumab are monoclonal antibodies that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial aims to find out which approach is more effective in shrinking and controlling brain metastases from melanoma.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have histologically and pathologically confirmed melanoma that has metastasized to the brain * Any primary (cutaneous, acral/mucosal, etc) or unknown origin are permitted, except that participants with uveal primary are not eligible * Participants must have BRAF-V600 mutant melanoma documented by a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA)-certified laboratory * All participants must have an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain within 28 days prior to registration and must have central nervous system metastases with at least one measurable brain metastasis \>= 0.5 cm in size (per modified RECIST 1.1) that has not been irradiated, or progressed (in the opinion of the treating physician) after prior radiation therapy. Participating sites MUST use MRI slice thickness of =\< 1.5 mm and are recommended to adhere to the 'minimum' Brain Tumor Imaging Protocol for Clinical Trials in Brain Metastases (BTIP-BM) compliant MRI acquisition protocol.
