Filter by:This is an open label, two-phase study combining a dose escalation Phase 1 with a proof-of-concept Phase 2 in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma, for whom treatment with ipilimumab is indicated. The purpose of the Phase 1 is to determine the Anti-OX40 Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the secondary objectives are anti-OX40 pharmacokinetics, biological activity and the tumor response assessed by the Immune-related Response Criteria. The purpose of Phase 2 is to determine tumor response (by irRC) and the secondary objectives are anti-OX40 pharmacokinetics, biological activity and Safety/Tolerability.
This is a research study to evaluate treatment of metastatic melanoma patients with a combination of drugs. The combination being studied is vemurafenib (also known as Zelboraf®) and High Dose Interleukin-2 (abbreviated as HD IL-2 and known as Proleukin®). The combination of vemurafenib and HD IL-2 immunotherapy may enhance the response.
The purpose of this study is to find out more about the effects of an investigational combination of medicines, which includes special immune cells (T-cells). A T-cell is a type of lymphocyte, or white blood cell. Lymphocytes are a kind of white blood cell that protect the body from viral infections, help other cells fight bacterial and fungal infections, produce antibodies, fight cancers, and coordinate the activities of other cells in the immune system.
This phase II trial studies how well stereotactic radiosurgery works in treating patients with melanoma that has spread to more than 3 places in the brain. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacodynamic changes of Nivolumab and Nivolumab in combination with Ipilimumab treatment on the biomarkers measured in the peripheral blood and tumor tissues of subjects with advanced melanoma (unresectable or advanced)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and potential effectiveness of the imaging compound 18F MEL050 for finding sites of melanoma.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of aerosolized aldesleukin and to see how well it works in treating patients with cancer that has spread from the original tumor to the lungs. Biological therapies, such as aerosolized aldesleukin, may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing.
The main objective of this study is to compare results for the detection of circulating melanoma cells (CMC) using CellSearch versus EPISPOT (EPithelial ImmunoSPOT) techniques between a group of patients with metastatic melanoma and a group of hospitalized control patients.
SUMMARY: Metronomic Therapy in Patients with Metastatic Melanoma: A Phase II Study of Low Dose Vinblastine, Cyclophosphamide, and Dacarbazine. Patients with measurable metastatic melanoma are eligible. All patients will be treated as outlined below with combined vinblastine, cyclophosphamide, and dacarbazine. Patients will be treated continuously, until evidence of progression of disease, or for up to two cycles following disappearance of all disease. A cycle will be defined as three weeks of continuous therapy with a one week rest.
People with brain metastases from melanoma are offered different treatment options after local treatment of their brain metastases via surgery or stereotactic irradiation. Depending on the treating institution and the clinician involved a patient may or may not be offered whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) after their brain metastases are excised or treated with stereotactic irradiation. This trial seeks to determine if WBRT reduces the spread of brain metastases and lengthens the time to recurrence. The trial also examines the effect of WBRT on quality of life and brain functions such as memory, speech and concentration. Participants will be randomised after local treatment of their brain metastases to either WBRT or observation. 220 people will be recruited from sites in Australia, Norway, the UK, the US and other international sites.
