Study Summary

This trial is testing a treatment for melanoma that has spread and is not responding to other treatments. In this treatment, the patient's own blood cells are exposed to a protein that has been shown to kill tumor cells in the laboratory. The hypothesis is that this will help the patient's immune system to better fight the cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced melanoma that hasn't responded to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Participants must have good organ function, understand the study, and not be pregnant or have severe illnesses or uncontrolled infections. They should have a life expectancy over 24 weeks and an ECOG Performance Status of 0 to 2.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests TBX-3400, where patients' blood cells are treated with a protein to boost anti-tumor effects and improve immune response against stage III/IV melanoma resistant to standard treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't specified here but may include reactions related to the immune system's enhancement and typical risks associated with transfusions such as fever, allergic reactions, or infection.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), graded using the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03
Secondary outcome measures
Assessment of concentrations of certain chemokines, such as cluster of differentiation 69 (CD69), as biomarkers of activity of TBX-3400
Presence and/or concentration of anti TBX-3400 antibodies
Tumor responses as defined by RECIST version 1.1

Other outcome measures
Quantification of the concentration of interferon gamma inducible protein 10 kD (IP-10) in plasma
Quantification of the concentration of interferon-alpha (INF-α) in plasma
Quantification of the concentration of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) in plasma

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What is the accepted capacity of participants for this medical experiment?

"Affirmative. Research hosted on clinicaltrials.gov corroborates that this scientific investigation, which was first advertised on June 2nd 2019, is actively recruiting participants. Approximately 72 individuals need to be enrolled from two separate healthcare facilities."

Answered by AI

What detrimental effects could arise from taking TBX-3400?

"Due to a lack of data on TBX-3400, our team has assigned it a safety rating of 1. This is because the drug is currently being assessed through Phase 1 trials and therefore its efficacy and safety have yet to be established."

Answered by AI

Are there still openings for participants in this experiment?

"Confirmed. As listed on clinicaltrials.gov, this scientific trial is actively enrolling individuals; it was initially posted on June 2nd 2019 and updated most recently on May 1st 2022. The total number of participants to be recruited across two sites stands at 72 in sum."
