Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant adoptive cell therapy (ACT) via infusion of LN-144 (autologous TIL) followed by interleukin-2 (IL-2) after a nonmyeloablative lymphodepletion (NMA-LD) preparative regimen, followed by Pembrolizumab.
This pilot clinical trial studies isolated limb perfusion with melphalan in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV melanoma or sarcoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the arteries around the tumor may kill more tumor cells.
This phase II trial studies trametinib in treating patients with melanoma with v-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B (BRAF) non-V600 mutations that has spread to other places in the body. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This clinical trial studies how well FDG-PET/CT measures early response in patients with stage III-IV melanoma who are receiving chemotherapy. Positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) uses a metabolic imaging radiotracer, [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), which selectively accumulates in tumors. FDG-PET/CT of advanced melanoma before, during, and after treatment may improve methods for predicting which patients may benefit from therapy.
This phase II trial studies how well high-dose aldesleukin and ipilimumab works in treating patients with stage III-IV melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery. Biological therapies, such as aldesleukin, may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving high-dose aldesleukin together with ipilimumab may work better in treating patients with melanoma.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA)-transfected peripheral blood mononuclear cells APN401 (APN401) in treating patients with melanoma, kidney, or pancreatic cancer, or other solid tumors that have spread to other parts of the body or that cannot be removed by surgery. There are factors in immune cells in the blood that inhibit their ability to kill cancers. Treating white blood cells with one of these factors in the laboratory may help the white blood cells kill more cancer cells when they are put back in the body.
This phase II trial studies how well molecularly targeted therapy works in treating patients with melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body. Patients must have received or do not qualify for prior immunotherapy. Targeted therapy is a type of treatment that uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack specific types of cancer cells with less harm to normal cells. Molecularly targeted therapy works by treating patients with substances that kill cancer cells by targeting key molecules involved in cancer cell growth.
This clinical trial studies lymph node mapping using indocyanine green solution in diagnosing patients with malignant melanoma. Diagnostic procedures, such as lymph node mapping using indocyanine green solution, may help find out how far the melanoma has spread and may help in planning cancer treatment.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of cabozantinib-s-malate when given together with vemurafenib in treating patients with solid tumors or melanoma that is metastatic or that cannot be removed by surgery. Cabozantinib-s-malate and vemurafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This pilot clinical trial studies vaccine therapy and resiquimod in treating patients with stage II-IV melanoma that has been removed by surgery. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cell tumor cells. Biological therapies, such as resiquimod, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. It is not yet known whether Gag:267-274 peptide vaccine and resiquimod are more effective when given together or separately
