NCT00495066

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the study is to provide treatment with Ipilimumab to subjects who have serious or immediately life-threatening unresectable Stage III or Stage IV melanoma, who have no alternative treatment options, and whose physicians believe, based upon available data on benefit and risk, that it is appropriate to administer Ipilimumab at a dose of 3 mg/kg induction (with re-induction, if eligible), or for eligible subjects previously enrolled in Ipilimumab studies CA184-042, CA184-078, CA184-087, MDX010-16, or MDX010-20.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Signed Written Informed Consent
  • Histologically confirmed Stage III (unresectable) or Stage IV melanoma
  • Must have failed at least one systemic therapy for malignant melanoma or be intolerant to at least one prior systemic treatment. Note: Enrollees must not be eligible for a clinical study with Ipilimumab
  • Subjects with asymptomatic brain metastases are eligible
  • Primary ocular and mucosal melanomas are allowed
  • Must be at least 28 days since treatment with chemotherapy, biochemotherapy, or immunotherapy, and recovered from any clinically significant toxicity experienced during treatment. Must have recovered from prior surgery or radiation. Systemic corticosteroids should be eliminated or weaned to the minimum dose before starting Ipilimumab treatment. Consult with the Medical Monitor for individual subjects
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0- 2
  • Life expectancy ≥ 16 weeks
  • Subjects must have the complete set of baseline (screening/baseline) radiographic images, including but not limited to brain, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. Bone scans should be completed if clinically indicated. The images can be accepted if obtained 6 weeks before initiation of Ipilimumab
  • Required values for initial laboratory tests:
  • White Blood Cells (WBC): ≥ 2000/uL (≥ 2 x 10\*9\*/L)
  • Antigen Neutrophil Count (ANC): ≥ 1000/uL (≥ 1 x 10\*9\*/L)
  • Platelets: ≥ 75 x 103/uL (≥ 75 x 10\*9\*/L)
  • Hemoglobin: ≥ 9 g/dL (≥ 80 g/L; may be transfused)
  • Creatinine: ≤ 2.0 x ULN
  • +8 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Women of Child-Bearing Potential (WOCBP) who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study and for up to 12 weeks after the last dose of investigational product
  • WOCBP using a prohibited contraceptive method
  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Women with a positive pregnancy test on enrollment or before investigational product administration
  • Subjects on any other systemic therapy for cancer, including any other experimental treatment
  • Prior treatment with an anti CTLA 4 antibody if treatment failure was due to Immune-Related Adverse Events (irAEs) or discontinuation was due to an Adverse Event (AE)/Serious Adverse Event (SAE)
  • Any subject enrolled in a registrational study (ie, CA184024) that has a survival endpoint should not be enrolled in CA184-045. Also, if a subject is eligible for a treatment study, he or she is not eligible for this study
  • Presence of active autoimmune disease
  • Presence of known hepatitis B or hepatitis C (active) infection, regardless of control on antiviral therapy
  • Any subject who has a life threatening condition that requires high-dose immunosuppressants
  • Subjects with melanoma who have another active, concurrent, malignant disease, with the exception of adequately treated basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix
  • Any non-oncology vaccine therapy used for prevention of infectious diseases for up to 4 weeks before or after any dose of Ipilimumab, with the exceptions of Amantadine and Flumadine
  • Any subject enrolled in a registrational study (ie, CA184-024) that has a survival as a primary endpoint should not be enrolled in CA184-045. Also, if a subject is eligible for a treatment study, he or she is not eligible for this study
  • Subjects from studies CA184-042, CA184-078 or CA184-087, who are being followed for survival only or for scans only are not eligible for this study
