Vaccine Therapy in Treating Patients With Stage IV or Recurrent Malignant Melanoma

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Melanoma (Skin)
Interventions
Biological: dendritic cell-MART-1 peptide vaccine
Registration Number
NCT00039325
Lead Sponsor
Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Vaccines made by inserting a laboratory-treated gene into a person's white blood cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage IV or recurrent malignant melanoma.

Arm E - A*0201-/DR*04+ - phase 2dendritic cell-MART-1 peptide vaccineSubjects will receive MART-1 adenovirus-transduced dendritic cells (DC)at dose of 10\^7. Subjects will receive a total of three biweekly vaccinations given intradermally. If significant clinical or immunological response (to be defined later) is noted, subjects will be eligible for up to 6 additional monthly vaccine administrations.
Arm B - dose increase for phase 1dendritic cell-MART-1 peptide vaccineA\*0201 positive subjects will receive MART-1 adenovirus-transduced dendritic cells (DC)at dose of 10\^7. Subjects will receive a total of three biweekly vaccinations given intradermally. If significant clinical or immunological response (to be defined later) is noted, subjects will be eligible for up to 6 additional monthly vaccine administrations.
Arm D - A*0201+/DR*04- - phase 2dendritic cell-MART-1 peptide vaccineSubjects will receive MART-1 adenovirus-transduced dendritic cells (DC)at dose of 10\^7. Subjects will receive a total of three biweekly vaccinations given intradermally. If significant clinical or immunological response (to be defined later) is noted, subjects will be eligible for up to 6 additional monthly vaccine administrations.
Group A - first dose for phase 1dendritic cell-MART-1 peptide vaccineA\*0201 positive subjects will receive MART-1 adenovirus-transduced dendritic cells (DC)at dose of 10\^6. Subjects will receive a total of three biweekly vaccinations given intradermally. If significant clinical or immunological response (to be defined later) is noted, subjects will be eligible for up to 6 additional monthly vaccine administrations.
Arm C - A*0201+/DR*04+ subjects - Phase IIdendritic cell-MART-1 peptide vaccineSubjects will receive MART-1 adenovirus-transduced dendritic cells (DC)at dose of 10\^7. Subjects will receive a total of three biweekly vaccinations given intradermally. If significant clinical or immunological response (to be defined later) is noted, subjects will be eligible for up to 6 additional monthly vaccine administrations.
