Official title
Phase II Trial for the Evaluation of the Efficacy of Vaccination With Synthetic Melanoma Peptides Either Pulsed on Dendritic Cells, or Administered With GM-CSF-in-Adjuvant, Plus Administration of Sustemic IL-2, in Patients With Advanced Melanoma.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from melanoma cells may make the body build an immune response to and kill tumor cells. Colony-stimulating factors such as GM-CSF may increase the number of immune cells found in the bone marrow or peripheral blood. Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill melanoma cells. Combining vaccine therapy with GM-CSF and interleukin-2 may be kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of vaccines made from melanoma cells with or without GM-CSF followed by interleukin-2 in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma.
