简要总结
RATIONALE: Genistein may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Interleukin-2 may stimulate the white blood cells, including natural killer cells, to kill melanoma or kidney cancer cells. Giving genistein together with interleukin-2 may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving genistein together with interleukin-2 works in treating patients with metastatic melanoma or kidney cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Measure the differences in peak and duration of the expansion of circulating CD4-positive, CD8-positive, and CD4-, CD25-, and CD56-positive cells (dim and bright) at different time points during therapy with interleukin-2 (IL-2) alone and plus genistein in patients with metastatic malignant melanoma or renal clear cell carcinoma.
Secondary
- Evaluate the differences in peripheral blood mononuclear cell gene expression following high-dose IL-2 with and without genistein and compare to baseline.
- Determine the overall response rate (partial and complete) in patients treated with these regimens.
- Determine the safety and toxic effects of these regimens in these patients.
- Determine the time to progression in patients treated with these regimens.

- •Inflammatory breast disease
- •Lymphangitis cutis/pulmonis
- •Cystic lesions
- •Abdominal masses that are not confirmed and followed by imaging techniques
- •No CNS metastases by CT scan or MRI
- •PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
- •ECOG performance status < 2

- •WBC > 3,500/mm³
- •No evidence of congestive heart failure
- •No symptom of coronary artery disease
- •No serious cardiac arrhythmias
- •A pretreatment cardiac stress test must be performed within 42 days of IL-2 treatment if any cardiac symptoms present (patients with documented ischemia on the pretreatment cardiac stress test will be excluded from the study)

- •No contraindication to treatment with pressor agents
- •No significant medical disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with completion of the study
- •No history of another malignancy other than basal cell skin cancer within 5 years
- •PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
- •Recovered from all toxic effects of prior therapy
- •No radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy in the 4 weeks prior to the first dose of the study treatment
- •No systemic corticosteroids in the 4 weeks prior to treatment
- •No previous investigational agent within 4 weeks prior to the start of the study
