Clinical Trial Summary

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.


Clinical Trial Description

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.

OUTLINE: This is a pilot study.

Patients receive high-dose interleukin-2 IV over 15 minutes twice daily on days 1 and 15 and 3 times daily on days 2-5 and 16-19. Patients also receive oral genistein twice daily on days 10-19.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 15 patients will be accrued for this study. ;
