About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label, Study To Evaluate The Safety And Immune Function Effects Of CP-675,206 In Combination With MART-1 Peptide-Pulsed Dendritic Cells In Patients With Advanced Melanoma

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as CP-675,206, work in different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing. Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Combining CP-675,206 with vaccine therapy may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of CP-675,206 when given with vaccine therapy in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma that cannot be removed with surgery.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 monoclonal antibody (CTLA4-blocking monoclonal antibody; CP-675,206) administered with autologous dendritic cells pulsed with MART-1 antigen in patients with unresectable stage III or stage IV melanoma.
  • Determine the biological activity and immune effects of this regimen in these patients.

Secondary

  • Correlate CTLA4 genotype with safety of this regimen and/or immune response in these patients.
  • Determine, preliminarily, the efficacy of this regimen, in terms of clinical benefit rate, in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, dose-escalation study of anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 monoclonal antibody (CTLA4-blocking monoclonal antibody; CP-675,206).

Patients receive CP-675,206 IV on days 0, 28, 60, and 90 and autologous dendritic cells pulsed with MART-1 antigen intradermally on days 0, 14, and 28. After day 120, patients with stable or responding disease may receive additional doses of CP-675,206 monthly in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of CP-675,206 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 3-21 patients will be accrued for this study within 3-10 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing maximum tolerated dose of anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 monoclonal antibody in people with Melanoma (Skin), run by Jonsson Comprehensive 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?

The sponsor lists 25 inclusion and 22 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 3 Aug 2020. 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?

Maximum tolerated dose of anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 monoclonal antibody (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT00090896, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Aug 2020.
