Melanoma (Skin)Phase 1NCT00045149
Biological Therapy in Treating Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
A Phase 1 study testing aldesleukin and therapeutic tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in people with Melanoma (Skin), run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as cellular adoptive immunotherapy use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. Treating a person's white blood cells in the laboratory and then reinfusing them may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety of Cellular Adoptive Immunotherapy Using Autologous CD8+ Antigen Specific T Cell Clones Targeting Cancer Testis Antigens for Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as cellular adoptive immunotherapy use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. Treating a person's white blood cells in the laboratory and then reinfusing them may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of biological therapy in treating patients who have metastatic melanoma.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Determine the safety and toxicity of cellular adoptive immunotherapy comprising autologous CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocyte clones targeting cancer-testis antigens in patients with metastatic melanoma.
- Determine the duration of in vivo persistence of this therapy in these patients.
Secondary
- Evaluate the antitumor effects of this therapy in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients undergo leukapheresis to obtain peripheral blood mononuclear cells and then CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) clones are generated ex vivo. Patients receive cellular adoptive immunotherapy comprising autologous CD8+ CTL clones targeting cancer testis antigens IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Patients also receive interleukin-2 subcutaneously every 12 hours on days 1-14 of courses 2-4. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who demonstrate a clinical response after completion of the fourth course are eligible to receive additional T-cell infusions.
Patients are followed for 9 months.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing aldesleukin and therapeutic tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in people with Melanoma (Skin), run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 May 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 May 2010.
