Eligibility Criteria

Age21 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Stage M1a, M1b, M1c biopsy proven metastatic melanoma
  • Failure of at least one prior chemotherapy regimen of DTIC and/or temozolomide with/without interleukin-2 (IL-2).
  • Karnofsky performance status greater than/equal to 80%.
  • Measurable metastatic lesions by physical exam or scans.
  • Acceptable CBC and blood chemistry results
  • Adequate renal function.
  • Written informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who have received more than 8 cycles of chemotherapy for metastatic melanoma.
  • Patients who have received chemotherapy less than 4 weeks before beginning the trial.
  • Patients who have received interferon (IFN) alpha-2b or granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) less than 4 weeks before beginning the trial.
  • Patients who have received high-dose IL-2 less than 4 weeks before beginning the trial.
  • Patients with a history of central nervous system (CNS) metastatic melanoma.
  • More than 5 hepatic lesions or any hepatic lesion larger than 5 cm.
  • Baseline serum LDH greater than 4 times the upper limit of normal.
  • Patients who are HIV positive.
  • Patients who are pregnant.
  • Patients who have received corticosteroids or other agents less than 4 weeks before beginning the trial.
  • Patients with asthma, angina pectoris or congestive heart failure.
  • Patients with autoimmune diseases such as lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis or thyroiditis.
  • Patients with active infections including viral hepatitis.
  • Patients with a history of any other neoplastic disease less than 5 years ago (carcinomas in situ of the cervix and basal/squamous cell carcinomas of the skin, however, can be admitted to the study).
