NCT03225365

Brief Summary

This is an open bi-centric prospective non-randomized study in patients with metastatic melanoma treated with a first line treatment of Nivolumab +/- Ipilimumab. The aim of the study is to characterize the immune cells modulations under anti-PD-1 +/- anti-CTLA4 and identify the differences between responder and non-responder patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change description of biological characteristics of immune cells of the blood by immunomonitoring.

    Biological characteristics description of monocytes, dendritic cell and T cells subpopulations including different circulating suppressive subpopulations by immunomonitoring

    Week 1 (baseline, before the 1st injection), week 3 (before the 2d injection treatment), week 7 (before the 4th) , week 13 (before the 5th), week 53 (before the 26th or during radiological evaluation) or at the progression

  • Change in the immune response by skin biopsy.

    Week 1 (Baseline), week 7, week 53 or at the progression.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Progression-free survival

    Week1 , every radiological assessments defined by standard care (not by specific time frame)

  • Overall survival

    week 1, date of patient death

  • Auto-immune adverse event frequency

    baseline, week 53 or at the progression

  • Subtype of melanoma correlated with biological characteristics of immune cells

    baseline

  • Immunity gene polymorphism correlated with biological characteristics of immune cells

    Week 1, week 3, week 7, week 13, week 53 or at the progression.
