- Ages 18 years and older
- All sexes

Who may be able to join
- The patient has a diagnosis of American Joint Commission on Cancer (AJCC) stage 111 or IV malignant melanoma. A patient who is free of disease after surgical resection of stage 111 or IV disease, but at high risk (defined as a primary tumor >4 rnm, satellite or in-transit lesions, one or more positive lymph nodes or distant metastases) for recurrence is also eligible. A patient with metastatic disease may have no more than five sites of disease. The skin represents one site regardless of the number of lesions. Stage 111 melanoma is defined as a pT4 primary tumor (>4m in depth or Clark level 5) in-transit metastases, satellites lesions or regional lymph nodes involved with melanoma.Pathology slides must be reviewed by the investigational site's Department of Pathology.
- The patient's Karnofsky performance status is 280 at study entry.
- The patient has given signed informed consent.
- The patient has had surgery for their melanoma at least 6 months prior to study entry, or has had prior interferon therapy, or developed unacceptable toxicities to interferon therapy, or has a pre-existing condition(s) that precludes the patient fkom receiving interferon treatment.
- The patient is 21 8 years of age.
- The patient must have completed any prior irradiation, chemotherapy, or systemic immunotherapy (interferon-alpha, or interleukin-2) at least 30 days prior to study entry.

- The patient has adequate hematologic function as defined as a platelet count 2100,000/mm3 and white blood cell (WBC) level 23,000/mm3.
- The patient has serum lactose dehydrogenase (LDH) within normal range and a serum creatinine level <2.0 mg/dL.
- The patient agrees to use effective contraception if procreative potential exists.
Who cannot join
- The patient has stage I11 disease otherwise eligible to receive standard of care melanoma therapy.
- The patient has a medical condition or use of medication (eg, corticosteroids) that might make it difficult for the patient to complete the full course of treatments or to respond immunologically to them, in the opinion of the investigator.

About this study
Official title: Phase I Study of gp75 DNA Vaccine in Patients With AJCC Stage III and IV Melanoma
Up to 24 patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma will be enrolled. Patients who are currently disease-free but at high risk for relapse are also eligible. Patients will receive vaccinations of gp75 at assigned dose levels. Patients who exhibit serologic and stable/clinical response are eligible to receive booster vaccinations. Patients will be evaluated for safety and efficacy throughout the duration of the study. In this study, the optimal biologically effective dose is defined as the lowest dose of gp75 that results in the production of anti-gp75 antibodies.
Read the detailed description
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of intramuscular vaccination with gp75 DNA in patients with stage III or IV melanoma. Secondary objectives are to observe the patient for any evidence of anti-tumor response and to establish the optimal biologically effective dose. Up to 24 evaluable patients with stage III or IV metastatic melanoma or with stage III melanoma, currently disease-free, but at high risk for recurrence will be enrolled. Patients will be be enrolled into an assigned dose group and will receive five vaccinations of gp75. In order for dose escalation to proceed, only one patient in the current dose group may have demonstrated a dose limiting toxicity (DLT). If a second patient experiences such toxicity then both patients will move down to the previous dose level, and the previous dose level will be considered to be the MTD. If no DLTs are encountered, patients will continue on study at the assigned dose level. Any patient experiencing a DLT will not receive further vaccination until the toxicity has resolved. Patients exhibiting both serological and stable/clinical response after receiving the fifth vaccination will be eligible to receive booster vaccinations. An additional patient will be accrued to the dose level for every patient that progresses prior to the fifth vaccination.

What participants receive

gp75 DNA vaccineBiological
6 patients will be enrolled in each of the 5 vaccination groups. Patients in vaccination groups 1-3 will receive a total of 5(1 mL) vaccinations. Patients assigned to vaccination group 4 will receive a total of 5 (2.0 mL) vaccinations administered as 2 1 mL injections. Patients assigned to vaccination group 5 will receive a total of 5 (4.0 mL or 8.0 mg)vaccinations administered as 4 1 mL injections per vaccination treatment Patients will receive gp75 DNA vaccinations every 3 weeks for 5 vaccinations. Injection sites will be given intramuscularly and rotated for each dose using all 4 limbs with the exception of a site that had the removal of lymph nodes. Progression to next higher dose level will be based on the 5* patient safely completing the 2nd vaccination at the lower dose level.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing gp75 DNA vaccine in people with Malignant Melanoma, run by Eli Lilly and Company 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?
The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. 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 9 Apr 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.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Evaluate the safety and feasibility of intramuscular vaccination with gp75 DNA in patients with stage III or IV melanoma.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00034554, which also lists 18 linked publications.
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 9 Apr 2010.
