5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to assess if treatment with IDO/Survivin peptide vaccine can enhance the efficacy of temozolomide chemotherapy in patients with metastatic malignant melanoma.
Detailed Description
Secondarily to studying the efficacy of the treatment; the investigators examine if treatment with IDO/Survivin peptide can induce a measurable cellular T-cell response when the vaccine is given in combination with temozolomide treatment for melanoma patients.
