简要总结

RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have metastatic melanoma.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose of recombinant vaccinia-TRICOM vaccine in patients with metastatic melanoma.
  • Determine the clinical toxic effects of this vaccine in these patients.
  • Determine the safety of this vaccine in these patients.
  • Determine the clinical response of these patients to this vaccine.
  • Determine evidence of host anti-melanoma immune reactivity in these patients after treatment with this vaccine.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive recombinant vaccinia-TRICOM vaccine once every 4 weeks for a total of 3 vaccinations. Patients with stable or responding disease may receive an additional course of vaccinations.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of recombinant vaccinia-TRICOM vaccine until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
