Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This pilot clinical trial studies booster vaccination in preventing disease recurrence in previously vaccinated patients with melanoma that has been removed by surgery. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving booster vaccinations may make a stronger immune response and prevent or delay the recurrence of cancer.

- description
- Patients receive gp100:209-217(210M) peptide vaccine and HPV 16 E7:12-20 peptide vaccine with Montanide ISA 51 VG or Montanide ISA 51 SC on day 1 and between days 25-30. After 6 months, patients free of disease receive booster injections every 6 months for 3 years in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.

- Percentage of positive CD8+ T cells
- timeFrame
- Up to 11 years
- description
- Characterized using three different in vitro assays. Fresh and cryopreserved peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) will be analyzed for gp100 peptide-specific CD8+ T cells using a fluorescinated, modified gp100, peptide-specific, A2-restricted tetramer binding assay and the interferon (IFN) gamma specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISPOT) and cytokine flow cytometry (CFC) assays.
