Clinical Trial Summary

This phase II, randomized, open-label trial aims to assess whether the vaccination increase RFS in disease free melanoma patients after surgery. Patients will be randomized between Intradermal Autologous Dendritic Cell Vaccine loaded with autologous tumor lysate or homogenate (6 vaccines every 4 weeks) and observation.


Clinical Trial Description

This study will be a randomized phase II trial (1:1 allocation ratio) in resected stage III/IV melanoma patients. The randomization list will be stratified by stage (III and IV M1a-b and IVM1c), and time from primitive tumor to first metastasis (≤ 2 years versus > 2 years). Five randomization lists will be defined, one for each stratum.

On the basis of literature, the investigators assume a median relapse-free survival of 7.0 months for the standard group. With a two-sided tailed alpha of 0.10 and power of 80%, assuming a median relapse-free survival of 11.7 months in the experimental arm (hazard ratio 0.60), it will be necessary to recruit 60 patients per arm over a period of 24 months and to have a subsequent 12 months of follow-up. In the context of data monitoring board activities, an interim analysis for futility, according to the Bayesian approach, will be performed at 18 months in order to control the safety.

Primary endpoints will be relapse free survival. Secondary end points will be OS, In vivo and in vitro immunomonitoring. Immunologic efficacy will be measured by best Delayed Type Hypersensitivity score (reactivity to lysate or KLH) obtained after at least 4 vaccine doses, alone or combined with Interferon-g ELISPOT analysis of tumor antigen-specific circulating effectors obtained after a minimum of 4 vaccine doses, both compared with prevaccine samples. In vivo monitoring will focus on functional phenotyping of circulating immune effectors/regulators, functional characterization of circulating tumor antigen-specific immune effectors and regulators, and identification of serum markers that are predictive of response. ;
