A Phase Ib Study of Yervoy With Sylatron for Patients With Unresectable Stages IIIB/C/IV Melanoma
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Sylatron and Yervoy for Melanoma. Completed, enrolled 31 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to see how much of the drug Yervoy can be safely tolerated when it is given to people who are also receiving a drug called Sylatron. Investigators also wish to find out whether the addition of Yervoy increases the chance that Sylatron will cause a rise in the level of antibodies in the patient's blood that recognize their own tissues, known as "autoimmune" antibodies. Investigators also want to find out how likely it is that their tumor will shrink.
