MDX-010 Antibody, MDX-1379 Melanoma Vaccine, or MDX-010/MDX-1379 Combination Treatment for Patients With Unresectable or Metastatic Melanoma

June 29, 2011 updated by: Bristol-Myers Squibb

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Study Comparing MDX-010 Monotherapy, MDX-010 in Combination With a Melanoma Peptide Vaccine, and Melanoma Vaccine Monotherapy in HLA-A2*0201-Positive Patients With Previously Treated Unresectable Stage III or IV Melanoma

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of MDX-010 (ipilimumab, BMS-734016) (anti-CTLA4) in combination with MDX-1379 (gp100, BMS-734019) in patients with previously treated, unresectable Stage III or IV melanoma. Survival time will be evaluated, as well as patient responses and time to disease progression. Eligible patients are those who in response to a single regimen containing interleukin-2 (IL-2), dacarbazine, and/or temozolomide, have 1) relapsed following an objective response (partial response/complete response [PR/CR]); 2) failed to demonstrate an objective response (PR/CR); or 3) could not tolerate such a regimen due to unacceptable toxicity. Patients will be randomized into one of three groups, and will receive one of the following treatments: MDX-010 alone, MDX-1379 alone, or MDX-010 in combination with MDX-1379.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Melanoma accounts for approximately 5% of all skin cancers in the United States, but it accounts for about 75% of all skin cancer deaths. In 2004, the expected prevalence of melanoma is 627,252, with about 119,178 of these cases being Stage III or IV (metastatic melanoma). First line treatments for metastatic melanoma, usually IL-2, dacarbazine and/or temozolomide, are associated with significant toxicities. MDX-010 (anti-CTLA4) antibodies are designed to keep the immune system running by blocking CTLA-4 from down-regulating T cell activation. MDX-1379 is made up of two peptides that are pieces of a bigger melanoma protein (gp100). These peptides bind to HLA-A2 which is then recognized by T cells.

12-, 18-, and 24-Month Survival Rates
Time Frame: Month 12, Month 18, Month 24
The probability that a subject is alive at 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months following randomization, estimated via the non-parametric method (Kaplan-Meier method). For calculating 95% CI, bootstrap method was used with 20000 simulated trials.
Month 12, Month 18, Month 24
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: From randomization until the end of the study, which was defined as the time at which 481 deaths were observed (264 weeks)
PFS was defined as the number of days between the date of randomization and the date of the progression or the date of death. A subject who died without prior progression was considered to have progressed on the date of death. PFS was determined by investigator. 95% confidence intervals (CI) for median were computed using Brookmeyer and Crowley method.

Best Overall Response (BOR): Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), Stable Disease (SD), Progressed Disease (PD)
Time Frame: BOR was determined between Weeks 12 and Week 24 confirmation at least 4 weeks later at Cycle 1.
Investigator's assessment, modified World Health Organization criteria. CR: disappearance of all lesions by 2 consecutive observations >=4 weeks apart, no evidence of PD. PR: >=50% ↓ in sum of products of longest diameter & greatest perpendicular diameter of all target lesions compared to baseline by 2 observations >=4 weeks apart. SD: Neither sufficient ↓ to qualify for PR nor sufficient ↑ to qualify for PD. PD: ↑ >=25% in sum of products of longest diameter & greatest perpendicular diameter of target lesions compared to smallest recorded sum during study, or appearance of >= 1 new lesion.
BOR was determined between Weeks 12 and Week 24 confirmation at least 4 weeks later at Cycle 1.
Determination of Best Overall Response Rate (BORR)
Time Frame: Up to week 24
Response was based on the investigators' assessment using modified WHO criteria. BORR is defined as the number of subjects whose BOR is complete or partial response (CR or PR) divided by the total number of subjects in the group. BORR was comprised of responder and non-responder. The definition of a responder in BORR was either confirmed CR or PR, and a non-responder was defined as stable disease (SD), progressed disease (PD), unconfirmed CR (uCR), unconfirmed PR (uPR), and not evaluated.
Up to week 24
Time to Response
Time Frame: From randomization until the end of the study, which was defined as the time at which 481 deaths were observed (264 weeks)

Duration of Response
Time Frame: from time of initial drug administration to date of PD or death due to PD (the end of the study was defined as the time at which 481 deaths were observed [264 weeks])
Kaplan-Meier medians along with Brookmeyer and Crowley 95% confidence intervals (CI) for were computed. Duration of response was defined in subjects whose BOR was CR or PR as the number of days between the date of response (CR or PR) and the date of PD or the date of death (whichever occurs first).
from time of initial drug administration to date of PD or death due to PD (the end of the study was defined as the time at which 481 deaths were observed [264 weeks])
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame: Up to week 24

Up to week 24
Delayed Response (Response Beyond Week 24)
Time Frame: from Week 24 to end of study (the end of the study was defined as the time at which 481 deaths were observed [264 weeks])
Response was based on the investigators' assessment using modified World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. Delayed response is defined as post Week 24 overall response for the subjects who have PD before or at Week 24. Evaluation of delayed overall response is compared to baseline assessment. Delayed response includes delayed late CR, delayed late PR, delayed late SD, continued PD, unknown, and missing after Week 24. The delayed response of CR and PR also must have been confirmed.
from Week 24 to end of study (the end of the study was defined as the time at which 481 deaths were observed [264 weeks])
Change From Baseline in Health-Related Quality of Life (QOL) as Measured by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Core Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) Instrument at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1, Cycle1), Week 12
The 30 items were grouped into the following: 1 global QOL scale, 5 functional scales (Physical, Role, Cognitive, Emotional, Social), and 9 symptom scales/items (Fatigue, Nausea and Vomiting, Pain, Dyspnea, Sleep Disturbance, Appetite Loss, Constipation, Diarrhea, Financial Impact). All scores were linearly transformed to a 0 to 100 scale. For global QOL and functional items, a higher score represents a better level of functioning (100=best/0=worst). For symptom items, a higher score represents a higher level of symptoms (0=no symptom at all/100=very much severe).
