Therapeutic Autologous Lymphocytes, Cyclophosphamide, and Aldesleukin in Treating Patients With Metastatic Melanoma

NCT01106235

Non-randomizedSingle-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

RATIONALE: Aldesleukin may stimulate lymphocytes to kill melanoma cells. Treating lymphocytes with interleukin-21 in the laboratory may help the lymphocytes kill more tumor cells when they are put back in the body. Giving therapeutic autologous lymphocytes together with cyclophosphamide and aldesleukin may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving therapeutic autologous lymphocytes together with cyclophosphamide and aldesleukin in treating patients with metastatic melanoma
