Filter by:Patients with stage IV melanoma (also eye melanoma) will be treated with TCR transduced cells.
This phase Ib trial studies the best way of TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 and cyclophosphamide in treating patients with a solid tumor that has spread from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body (metastatic), progressed for a long time (persistent), come back (recurrent), or is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressed). TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 together with cyclophosphamide may be a better treatment for solid tumors.
This randomized pilot clinical trial studies melanoma antigen recognized by T-cells 1 (MART-1) antigen with or without toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist glucopyranosyl lipid A-stable oil-in-water emulsion (GLA-SE) in treating patients with stage II-IV melanoma that has been removed by surgery. Vaccines made from MART-1a peptide or antigen may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving TLR4 agonist GLA-SE with MART-1 antigen may help increase the immune response to MART-1a antigen.
This randomized clinical trial studies radiation therapy and MK-3475 in treating patients with head and neck cancer, kidney cancer, melanoma, or lung cancer that has returned, has spread to other parts of the body, or cannot be removed by surgery. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as MK-3475, may block tumor growth by targeting certain cells and causing the immune system to attack the tumor. Studying the effects of MK-3475 with radiation therapy on the body may help doctors learn whether it may be an effective treatment for these solid tumors.
This pilot clinical trial studies booster vaccination in preventing disease recurrence in previously vaccinated patients with melanoma that has been removed by surgery. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving booster vaccinations may make a stronger immune response and prevent or delay the recurrence of cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well stereotactic body radiotherapy and ipilimumab work in treating patients with stage IV melanoma. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, target certain cells to interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving SBRT with ipilimumab may kill more tumor cells.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well epacadostat and vaccine therapy work in treating patients with stage III-IV melanoma. Epacadostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vaccines made from peptides and antigens may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving epacadostat with vaccine therapy may be an effective treatment for advanced melanoma.
This is a multi-centric translational study with biological samples collection. The aim of this study is to validate a method to detect BRAFV600 in blood samples. Samples: Blood from patients with BRAFV600 metastatic melanoma collected following standard medical practice. The treatment is not the aim of the study. Patients can be treated either with specific or no-specific drug.
This pilot clinical trial studies intravital microscopy for identifying tumor vessels in patients with stage IA-IV melanoma that is being removed by surgery. New imaging procedures, such as intravital microscopy, may determine the extent of melanoma.
This pilot clinical trial studies aldesleukin imaging in viewing tumor growth in patients with stage IV melanoma receiving ipilimumab or pembrolizumab therapy. Diagnostic procedures, such as single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), uses radioactive drugs and a scanner to make detailed pictures of areas inside the body and may be a less invasive way to check for stage IV melanoma. Radioactive drugs, such as technetium Tc 99 hydrazinonicotinamide-tricine-linked interleukin-2, carry radiation directly to cancer cells and may be able to differentiate between tumor growth due to inflammation versus tumor progression in patients with stage IV melanoma receiving therapy.
