Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well polarized dendritic cell (aDC1) based therapy, interferon alpha-2, rintatolimod, and celecoxib work together in treating patients with HLA-A2 positive (+) melanoma...

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To evaluate the objective response rate to treatment with an autologous alpha-type-1 polarized dendritic cells (alphaDC1)/TBVA cell-based treatment (alpha-type-1-polarized dendr...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Participant must be HLA-A2+. Retesting is not required for patients who have previous documented positivity
  • Have IO-refractory melanoma with primary PD-1/PD-L1resistance. Note: Any lines of prior therapies are allowed, but the last line needs to include an anti PD-1 or anti PD-L1 agent. The prior treatments may include any standard and/or experimental therapies
  • Have \>= 1 tumor site amenable to core needle biopsy that is not the site of disease used to measure antitumor response
  • Have measurable disease based on RECIST 1.1 criteria present
  • Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2
  • Platelets \>= 75,000/microliter
  • Hemoglobin \>= 9 g/deciliter
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 1500/microliter
  • Creatinine \< 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) OR creatinine clearance \>= 50 mL/min by Cockcroft-Gault formula for subjects with creatinine levels \>= 1.5 x ULN
  • Total bilirubin not greater than 1.5 x institutional ULN, except for patients with known Gilbert's Syndrome, who are eligible to no more than 2 x institutional ULN
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\]) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) no greater than 3 x institutional ULN OR, no greater than 5 x ULN for subjects with liver metastases
  • Participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraceptive methods (e.g., hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately
  • Participant must understand the investigational nature of this study and sign an Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board approved written informed consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure
  • Candidate for continuation/resumption of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 blockade (in parallel to DC vaccine and CKM)

Exclusion

  • Is currently being treated with systemic immunosuppressive agents, including steroids: Subjects will be ineligible until 3 weeks after removal from immunosuppressive treatments, except when they are administered as replacement therapy for endocrine dysfunction (and receive no more than 10 mg prednisone or equivalent: inhaled steroids are allowed)
  • Has had prior anti-cancer therapy within 2 weeks prior to study day 1 or who has not recovered (i.e., no more than grade 1 or at baseline) from adverse events due to a previously administered agent, except for neuropathy (no more than grade 2) or alopecia or vitiligo (any grade)
  • Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or requires active treatment
  • Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Treated brain metastases are allowed, if stable for more than 4 weeks (and receive no more than 10 mg prednisone or equivalent: inhaled steroids are allowed).
  • Has a history of cardiac event(s) (acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction, or ischemia (within 3 months of signing consent) or, subject has a New York Heart Association classification of III or IV
  • Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy
  • Has known active hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection
  • Has known immunosuppressive disease (e.g. human immunodeficiency virus \[HIV\], acquired immunodeficiency syndrome \[AIDS\] or other immune depressing disease). Testing is not mandatory
  • Has known serious hypersensitivity reactions to pegylated (peg)-interferon alpha-2b or interferon alpha-2b
  • Prior allergic reaction or hypersensitivity to sulfonamides, celecoxib, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
  • Has received a blood transfusion in the two weeks prior to leukapheresis
  • Women of child bearing potential who are pregnant or nursing
  • Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements
  • Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion deems the participant an unsuitable candidate or unacceptable risk to receive study drug regimen
  • Patients who showed initial response to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and developed secondary resistance
