Active clinical trials for "Melanoma"

This is a study of an investigational cancer vaccine called GRN-1201. Treatment with the GRN-1201 vaccine is a type of immunotherapy. The goal of immunotherapy is to stimulate the body's immune system (white blood cells) to attack cancer cells and kill them. GRN-1201 consists of 4 different peptides (small parts of proteins) that are expressed by melanoma cells. The intent of treatment with GRN-1201 is to increase your body's immune response to melanoma. To further increase your body's immune response against tumor cells, the GRN-1201 vaccine will be mixed with Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF, also known as sargramostim). GM-CSF is a man-made protein that helps stimulate the immune system and increase the response against the tumor cells. This is a phase I study which means that this will be the first time GRN-1201 is given in combination with GM-CSF to humans. It will be tested in a small number of people to evaluate its safety, find a safe dose, and identify side effects. The safety of GRN-1201 will be tested at three different doses; the GM-CSF dose will remain the same.

The main purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and adverse event profile of pembrolizumab in subjects who have high risk melanoma before and after their standard of care surgical resection, and to collect tumor tissue from subjects before and after receipt of pembrolizumab to look at how the experimental drug interacts with tumor tissue. Subjects will receive 1 dose of neoadjuvant pembrolizumab, followed by complete resection and then a year of adjuvant pembrolizumab

The objective of the study is to determine the efficacy and toxicity of sorafenib in metastatic uveal melanoma. The main objective is to determine the non-tumor progression rate 24 weeks after initiation of treatment with sorafenib at a dose of 800 mg / day

This is a multi center, phase I pilot study of sequential ONCOS-102 and pembrolizumab in patients with advanced or unresectable melanoma progressing after PD1 blockade. The primary objective of the study is to determine the safety of sequential treatment with ONCOS-102 followed by pembrolizumab. The protocol aims to enroll patients into two cohorts: Part I: up to 12 patients will receive sequential treatment with ONCOS-102 followed by pembrolizumab. Part II: up to 12 patients will receive an initial treatment phase with ONCOS-102 followed by a treatment phase with ONCOS-102 in combination with pembrolizumab.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the treatment with NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant in combination with nivolumab is safe and useful for patients with certain types of cancer. The study also will investigate if NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant with nivolumab may represent a substantial improvement over other available therapies such as nivolumab alone. All eligible patients will receive NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant and nivolumab while on this trial.

This study will investigate the influence of maintenance therapy on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after combination therapy with BRAF/MEK (MAP-ERK kinase) inhibitors and PD-1 antibody pembrolizumab. In the safety phase I part the optimal dose of pembrolizumab in combination with BRAF inhibitor and MEK inhibitor and the safety of this three-drugs-combination regime will be determined. In the randomized part 2 different maintenance therapies will be tested for toxicity and efficacy. Patients with disease control after 6 months of triple therapy will be randomized to receive 2 different maintenance therapies further on, either continuation of triple therapy or administration of pembrolizumab alone.

The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of high-activity natural killer immunotherapy to small metastases of melanoma.

This is a Phase 1b, open-label study of immune checkpoints inhibitors Nivolumab+Ipilimumab administered in combination with the anti-TNF-α either Infliximab or Certolizumab, in patients with advanced melanoma.

This study is meant to assess the use of intralesional IL-2 to modulate the immunological response to suspected melanoma, or melanoma in situ, in an effort to increase lymphocyte infiltration and decrease disease metastasis. Patients that are clinically diagnosed with suspected Melanoma or Melanoma in situ will be assigned to either a treatment or control arm. The treatment group will be subjected to two intralesional IL-2 injections, whereas the control group will be subjected to two intralesional injections of saline. The proteomic and metabolomic profiles of both groups will be analyzed using urine and blood samples in an effort to assess the systemic immunological response, if any, to the treatment. Also, upon disease confirmation and staging by a qualified pathologist, lesions will be assessed for lymphocyte infiltration using immunohistochemical methods. This study will determine whether pre-treatment of IL-2 on lesions (clinically diagnosed as melanoma or melanoma in situ) is effective in generating an adaptive immune response, and whether that immune response may play a role in preventing disease metastasis.

The primary objective is to assess the safety, immunogenicity and efficacy of one of three dose levels and repeat dose regimens of Light-activated AU-011 and one or two laser applications for the treatment of subjects with primary choroidal melanoma.
