Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this study is compare the response rates in patients with metastatic melanoma treated with high-dose IL-2 to patients treated with high-dose IL-2 along with radiation therapy.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Previous radiation to sites proposed for radiation as part of this study.
  • Patient requires chronic steroids.

Other illness

  • Patients with active systemic, pulmonary, or pericardial infection.
  • DLCO, FEV1 or FEV1/FVC less than 70% of predicted due to clinically significant underlying pulmonary disease. For any pulmonary function test values less than predicted values, the PI will review, and document the patient's suitability for high dose IL-2 therapy.

Lab values

  • WBC \< 3.0 x 109/L
  • Hgb \< 9.0 g/dL
  • AST/ALT \> 3 times the upper limit of the normal range
  • total bilirubin \> 1.9 g/dL
  • creatinine \> 1.9 g/dL

Other

  • No metastatic site amenable to SBRT.
  • Patients with brain metastases not candidates for radiosurgery.
  • Pregnant or lactating women.
  • Evidence of ischemia on exercise tolerance test, stress thallium study, or baseline EKG.

Who the study is looking for

  • Histological confirmation of melanoma will be required by previous biopsy or cytology.
  • Patients must be ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Patients must have tumors amenable to SBRT in lungs, mediastinum, chest wall, bones (other than long bones), or liver (inclusive of immediately adjacent masses), 1 - 3 foci; no minimum size, but none greater than 7 cm. Patients may have other metastases but only a maximum of 3 will be treated.
  • ECOG performance status of 0-1.
  • Women of childbearing potential must have a serum or urine pregnancy test performed within 72 hours prior to the start of protocol treatment. The results of this test must be negative in order for the patient to be eligible. In addition, women of childbearing potential as well as male patients must agree to take appropriate precautions to avoid pregnancy.
  • Patients must sign a study-specific consent form.
