In the first part of the study, groups of patients will be sequentially enrolled to receive ascending oral doses of RO4987655 daily for 28 days. The starting dose of 1mg daily will be escalated in subsequent groups of patients after a successful assessment of the safety and tolerability of the previous dose. In Part 2 of the study, patients with metastatic or advanced malignant melanoma, or any other responsive tumor type, will be randomized to receive either the maximum tolerated dose or the optimal biological dose of RO4987655 daily. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00817518 - Retrieved November 2011Hoffmann-La RocheCurrently recruitingAdvanced / Metastatic

The study drug Ipilimumab is an antibody to a normal protein found in the body, CTLA-4. This protein normally allows the immune system (the body's natural defense system that helps fight infections) uses to quiet an immune response. The study drug works by blocking this protein and allowing the immune system to become more active. This study will investigate the effects, of combining ILI (using two standard drugs to treat melanoma, Melphalan and Dactinomycin), with the study drug, Ipilimumab on advanced Melanoma cancer.http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01323517 - Retrieved November 2011Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer CenterBristol-Myers SquibbCurrently recruitingAdvanced

Sorafenib is designed to stop the growth of cells caused by changes associated with cancer. Bortezomib is designed to stop cancer cells from getting rid of waste products. This causes the cells to build up toxic levels of waste that leads to cell death. In the laboratory, the combination of sorafenib and bortezomib has been shown to fight cancer cells better than either drug alone. We are looking to determine if the combination of sorafenib and bortezomib is a safe treatment for patients with advanced melanoma.

Ipilimumab exerts its therapeutic effect presumably by activating T-lymphocytes that infiltrate the tumor mass to destroy the malignant cells by mechanisms of cytotoxic cellular interaction. Autologous TriMix-DC vaccine can induce a T-cell repertoire that recognizes in a HLA-restricted way the melanoma associated antigens MAGE-A3, MAGE-C2, tyrosinase and gp100. Administration of ipilimumab together with TriMix-DC vaccine therapy may be a more effective treatment for patients with advanced melanoma as compared to either modality alone.http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01302496 - Retrieved November 2011Universitair Ziekenhuis BrusselVrije Universiteit BrusselCurrently recruitingAdvanced

Patient will be randomly assigned 1:1 between 2 treatment arms. They will receive either docetaxel 75mg/m2 IV and placebo given bd, or AZD6244 75mg bd daily with docetaxel 75mg/m2 IV. Docetaxel will be administered every 3 weeks for a maximum 6 cycles, but AZD6244/placebo may be continued beyond this, until disease progression. The objective is to assess whether the combination of AZD6244 with docetaxel is worthy of evaluation in a definitive randomised study, with the null hypothesis being that the combination has activity similar to that of docetaxel alone in this population. After consent has been obtained mutational analysis of tumour BRAF will be performed on archival tumour tissue, where this information is not already known, to assess eligibility for the study. If there is no archival tissue a fresh biopsy will be requested from the patient. A blood sample will also be taken for future genetic analysis. Once taking part in the trial patients will need to attend their oncology unit regularly for monitoring and the delivery of treatment. Patients will undergo complete physical examination at screening, on C1D1, C1D8, C1D15, C2D1, C2D8 and day 1 of every subsequent cycle. Blood for haematology, biochemistry and clotting will be taken at each of these visits. A 12 lead ECG will be performed at screening .

To date, the investigators have observed 5 sequentially treated patients with metastatic melanoma who had failed high dose IL-2 but who then went on to receive immediate temozolomide. Two of these patients had complete responses and 3 had very strong partial response. In a recent phase II study of extended low dose temozolomide alone given in the same manner as the post IL-2 patients noted above, the response rate was 12.5% and all of these were partial responses only. The responses that the investigators observed were at a much higher rate of response as well as much better quality than expected for temozolomide. The responses were also better than those observed when temozolomide was given first and then followed by high dose IL-2. The investigators concluded that perhaps the major benefit the investigators observed was a result of the prior high dose IL-2 therapy modulated by the temozolomide and that the sequence of treatment was clearly crucial for this response.http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01124734 - Retrieved November 2011Penn State UniversityCurrently recruitingMetastatic

The idea behind developing this experimental drug is to stimulate the immune system to make antibodies to kill cancer cells. This research study is considered "experimental" because it has not received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of this type of cancer. This monoclonal antibody has been specifically made to block Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Antigen 4 (CTLA4), which is a protein found on cells of the immune system. CTLA4 seems to slow down the immune response, so blocking it with an anti-CTLA4 antibody may make the immune response more active. The purpose of this study is to see if Ipilimumab affects the response of the patient's immune system toward their cancer. http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00972933 - Retrieved November 2011University of PittsburghBristol-Myers SquibbCurrently recruitingMetastatic

A combination of RNAs encoding melanoma tumor associated antigens MART-1, tyrosinase, gp100, and MAGE-3 will be utilized for dendritic cell transfection. The vaccine will be administered by intradermal injection in the extremities. Clinical and laboratory toxicities will be characterized for each study arm. As a secondary objective, this phase I study will also assess the anti-melanoma immune responses, as well as clinical responses, induced by vaccination with this dendritic cell-based product.http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00672542 - Retrieved November 2011Duke UniversityCurrently recruitingMetastatic

Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as TMZ, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving TMZ at different times, which are determined individually for each patient based on the phase (biorhythm) of the immune system response against the tumor may allow for a better drug response and may kill more tumor cellshttp://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01328535 - Retrieved November 2011Mayo ClinicNational Cancer InstituteCurrently recruitingRecurrent / Metastatic

It is well documented that the intratumoral administration of IL-2 leads to a high response rate and unexpectedly favorable longtime outcome.http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01253096 - Retrieved November 2011Philogen S.p.ACurrently recruitingMetastatic
