Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Ipilimumab in Patients With Advanced Melanoma and Spontaneous Preexisting Immune Response to NY-ESO-1

Study Description

Brief Summary: This is an Open-label, single-arm, phase II study of ipilimumab in patients with spontaneous preexisting immune response to NY-ESO-1. Preclinical data suggest, that CTLA-4 blockade enhances polyfunctional T cell responses in patients with melanoma. Thus patients with immunological response to NY-ESO-1 might benefit from an anti CTLA-4 treatment. Eligible patients will receive 10 mg/kg ipilimumab every 3 weeks during a 10-week induction period, followed by a radiological assessment in week 12. Patients with clinical benefit (partial response, complete response or stable disease according to the immune-related response criteria) will continue with an ipilimumab administration every 3 months starting at week 24 up to week 48 until the end of the study or until disease progression,toxicities requiring discontinuation
