Brief Title: A Comparison of Matured Dendritic Cells and Montanide® in Study Subjects With High Risk of Melanoma Recurrence
Official Title: Poly-ICLC Matured DC as an Adjuvant for NY-ESO-1 and Melan-A/MART-1 Peptide Vaccination Compared to Montanide® ISA-51 VG, in Study Subjects With Melanoma in Complete Clinical Remission But at High Risk of Disease Recurrence
Study ID: NCT02334735
Brief Summary: Vaccine adjuvants are compounds used to increase specific immune responses to antigens, but have minimal toxicity or lasting immune effects on their own. This study investigates the use of dendritic cells as an adjuvant for NY-ESO-1 and Melan-A/MART-1 peptides compared to Montanide® in study subjects with melanoma in complete clinical remission.
Detailed Description: This is a Phase II open label, randomized two-arm study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of Poly-ICLC matured DCs as an adjuvant for NY-ESO-1 and Melan-A/MART-1 peptides (ARM A; DC Vaccine) compared to Montanide® ISA-51 VG (ARM B; Montanide Vaccine), both with systemic administration of Poly-ICLC on days 1 and 2 in study subjects with melanoma in complete clinical remission but at high-risk for disease recurrence.
