NCT00077532
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as MDX-010, work in different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing. Vaccines made from gp100 peptides may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Combining the vaccines with Montanide ISA-51 may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether monoclonal antibody therapy is more effective with or without vaccine therapy in treating advanced melanoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying monoclonal antibody therapy alone to see how well it works compared to monoclonal antibody therapy, gp100 peptides, and Montanide ISA-51 in treating patients with stage IV melanoma.
NCT00254579
CP-675,206 is a fully human monoclonal antibody (mAb). It binds to the CTLA4 molecule, which is expressed on the surface of activated T lymphocytes. CP-675,206 is thought to stimulate patients' immune systems to attack their tumors. CP-675,206 is not expected to have a direct effect on tumor cells. CP-675,206 been shown to induce durable tumor responses in patients with metastatic melanoma in Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical studies.
