Interleukin-7 and Vaccine Therapy in Treating Patients With Metastatic Melanoma

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Melanoma (Skin)

In brief

RATIONALE: Interleukin-7 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Vaccines made from peptides may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Combining interleukin-7 with vaccine therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of interleukin-7 when given with vaccine therapy in treating patients with metastatic melanoma.
