Clinical trial: Utility of Novel BRAF Test for Melanoma

Summary: This primary purpose of this study is to obtain blood samples from participants with both early and later stages of melanoma (Stage II/III and Stage IV). The researchers hope to better understand an abnormal protein found in many melanoma tumors called the BRAFV600 mutation.
  There will be two separate cohorts (groups) of participants on this study. You will be placed in one of the Groups.
  Group 1-For participants with advanced melanoma: Your existing tumor tissue sample will be compared to the blood samples given in order to further analyze and to understand the BRAFV600E gene mutation.
  Group 2-For participants with stage II/III melanoma: Following surgery, blood samples will be collected and analyzed.
  Understanding the BRAFV600E gene mutation in melanoma will help the researchers better understand the disease, and help plan treatment options for people with melanoma of all stages in the future.

Detailed description: There will be no extra clinic visits for this study. These research blood samples will be drawn at the same time as your regularly scheduled blood draws that are part of standard care for melanoma.
  About 2 to 4 teaspoons of blood will be drawn for each research sample.
  Depending on which group you are in, you will have either a one time blood draw or ongoing blood work for 1-2 years.

Eligibility: Inclusion Criteria:
  -  Biopsy proven advanced (unresectable stage IIIC or stage IV)or high risk (stage II or stage III) malignant melanoma
  Exclusion Criteria:
  -  History of a different malignancy except for the following circumstances: disease-free for at least 2 years and deemed by the investigator to be at low risk for recurrence; or non-metastatic prostate cancer, cervical cancer in situ and basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma
  -  Known history of a different BRAF mutant malignancy

Clinical trial: Modified Melanoma Vaccine for High Risk or Low Residual Disease Patients

Summary: This study is designed for patients who had malignant melanoma and, following tumor removal, are now free of disease, or have only very minor residual disease, and are at a very high risk of disease recurrence. These patients will be treated with the A2/4-1BBL melanoma vaccine, a compatible melanoma cell line that has been engineered to express a molecule termed 4-1BBL, which enhances the chances of the cell line to be recognized by the patient's immune system, and to induce its stimulation. The hypothesis that drives the study states that the immune response against the cell line will also be effective against the residual tumor that may still be present in the body.
