Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically or cytologically confirmed malignant mesothelioma (MM)
- Have received only one prior systemic chemotherapy platinum-based regimen for advanced MM
- Disease not amenable to curative surgery
- No known brain metastasis
- Age 18 and over
- Performance status 0-2
- Life expectancy \> 12 weeks
- Adequate hematologic, hepatic and renal function
- Not pregnant or nursing
- Patient must be willing and able to provide written informed consent, and the trial have to be approved by the institutional review board at each institution
You may not qualify if:
- Symptomatic chronic inflammatory or autoimmune disease
- Active hepatitis B or C
- Clinically relevant cardiovascular disease, i.e., myocardial infarction or other severe coronary artery diseases within the prior 6 months, cardiac arrythmia requiring medication, uncontrolled hypertension, overt cardiac failure or not compensated chronic heart disease in NYHA class II or more
- History of psychiatric disabilities, potentially interfering with the capability of giving adequate informed consent
- Uncontrolled active infections
- Other concurrent chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy or investigational agents
- History of other malignancies except for adequately treated basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell skin cancer or carcinoma of cervix, unless the patient has been disease-free for at least 5 years
