Pilot Study of Biomarkers of Response to Immune Checkpoint Blockade in Metastatic Melanoma
July 7, 2022 updated by: University of Wisconsin, Madison
This study uses molecular imaging and novel immune monitoring to identify a biomarker of response for melanoma patients receiving immunotherapy with anti-PD-1 immunotherapy.
Prior to treatment, FDG and FLT PET/CT will be obtained, together with blood and tumor biopsies from each patient.
A follow-up FDG and FLT PET/CT will be obtained, together with blood and tumor biopsies, 10-12 weeks after starting treatment with anti-PD-1 antibody.
Additional tumor biopsies and blood samples for immune monitoring will be obtained 4-6 weeks after starting treatment with anti-PD-1 antibody as well as 16-18 weeks after starting anti-PD-1 treatment for patients still receiving anti-PD-1 antibody at that time.

Study Population
Up to 4 metastatic melanoma patients will be recruited from the University of Wisconsin (UW) Carbone Cancer Center (CCC) Melanoma Clinic located in the UW-Hospital and Clinics.
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants must have a metastatic melanoma diagnosis (stage IV) for which treatment with nivolumab or pembrolizumab, either alone or in combination with other therapies, is planned. No additional laboratory testing is needed for the imaging in this study apart from the standard laboratory testing routinely obtained for treatment with nivolumab or pembrolizumab, either alone or in combination with other therapies.
- Participants must have at least 2 subcutaneous or lymph node melanoma metastases that are 2 cm in greatest diameter and are amenable to being biopsied in clinic without requiring image-guidance.
- Participants must be able to provide informed consent
- Women of childbearing potential must be willing to use effective contraception as discussed with their oncologist while participating in this study.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Not able to receive treatment with either nivolumab or pembrolizumab.
- Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days of the first study FLT PET/CT and must not be breast feeding for the duration of study participation.

Cohorts and Interventions
Group / Cohort |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
FLT/PET + biopsy
F-FDG and FLT PET/CT imaging will be obtained prior to anti-cancer treatment and 10-12 weeks after starting treatment with anti-PD-1 antibody.
|
F-FLT PET uses a thymidine analogue that accumulates in proliferating tissue.
Proliferating tissue could include malignant lesions or immune cells.
In this study, FLT PET/CT will be utilized as a molecular imaging tool to detect immune activation after administration of immune checkpoint blockade with pembrolizumab or nivolumab.
