Conditions:

Metastatic Melanoma

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Phase:

PHASE2

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine response rates by administering low dose cyclophosphamide on day 1, followed by 5 days of outpatient IL2.

Detailed Description

To determine the response rate, median duration of response and median survival of patients treated with this low-dose cyclophosphamide + moderate dose bolus Interleukin-2 schedule.

  • 4\. Lactation or pregnancy.
  • 5\. Evidence of significant cardiovascular disease including history of recent (\< 6 months prior) myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, primary cardiac arrhythmias (not due to electrolyte disorder or drug toxicity, for example) beyond occasional PVC's, angina, positive low-level stress test, or cerebrovascular accident.
