Active clinical trials for "Melanoma"

In this study the recombinant human fusion protein L19TNFα will be associated in ILP with the standard treatment with melphalan 10mg/l limb volume in subjects affected by stage III/IV limb melanoma. The recombinant human fusion protein L19TNFα was created with the intention to target TNFα directly to tumor tissues with the result in high and sustained intralesional bioactive TNFα concentrations.

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097 when given together with cisplatin, vinblastine, and temozolomide and to see how well they work in treating patients with recurrent or metastatic melanoma. Gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, vinblastine, and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097 together with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

The purpose of this study is to test the side effects of an investigational vaccine with an immune booster, or 2 different boosters together. Investigators also want to find out its effects on the immune system and whether it will decrease the chance that melanoma will return.

The purpose of the study is to identify a safe and tolerable dose of BMS-908662 in combination with ipilimumab; and then to evaluate the anti-tumor response to BMS-908662 when administered in combination with ipilimumab.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of giving adjuvant treatment with intermediate doses of interferon-alpha2b to patients operated for high risk melanoma. Patients are randomly assigned to either observation only or interferon treatment for 2 different durations. The outcome with respect to overall survival, relapse-free survival, side effects and quality of life is analysed.

This phase II trial studies how well giving cixutumumab works in treating patients with metastatic melanoma of the eye. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) of VELCADE when administered in combination with interferon-alpha-2b (IFN-α-2b) to patients with metastatic malignant melanoma.

The purpose of this study is to assess the overall disease control rate of Ofatumumab wo/w Dacarbazine in subjects with American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC 2009) unresectable stage III or stage IV melanoma.

In this phase I/II trial, immunostimulatory gene therapy (AdCD40L) will be investigated. In Part 1 patients with melanoma will receive AdCD40L as mono therapy. In Part 2A, patients with melanoma and patients with other solid tumors will receive AdCD40L in combination with low dose cyclophosphamide. In Part 2B, patients with melanoma will receive AdCD40L in combination with one local radiotherapy and cyclophosphamide.

To determine the safety of local palliative radiation therapy used in combination with anti-CTLA-4 immunotherapy.
