ECOG E3611, A Randomized Phase II Study of Ipilimumab at 3mg/kg or 10mg/kg Alone or in Combination with High Dose Interferon-alpha in Advanced Melanoma

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of ipilimumab (given at 2 different doses, 10 mg/kg or 3 mg/kg) either alone or in combination with interferon alfa-2b on you and your melanoma to find out which treatment is safer and better. Therefore, you will get ipilimumab (either at 10 mg/kg or 3 mg/kg) alone or in combination with interferon alfa-2b.

NCI/CTEP #8850: A Phase I Trial of Riluzole and Sorafenib in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors and Melanoma (CDUS)

The overall goal of this project is to determine if pharmacological blockade of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) signaling pathway with the agent Riluzole, combined with inhibition of RAF signaling with the agent Sorafenib, will result in clinically evident responses in patients with stage IV melanoma.

NCI/CTEP #8983: A Phase I Trial of MK-2206 and Hydroxychloroquine in Solid Tumors, Melanoma, Renal and Prostate Cancer to Examine the Role of Autophagy in Tumorigenesis

Primary - to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MK-2206 and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) when used in combination.
Secondary - (1) to determine the side effects and activity of MK-2206 and hydroxychloroquine when used in combination. (2) to determine if hydroychloroquine alters the pharmcokinetics of MK-2206 due to a drug-drug interaction. (3) to validate biomarkers for autophagy detection

ECOG E2810: Randomized, Double-Blind Phase III Study of Pazopanib vs. Placebo in Patients with Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Who Have No Evidence of Disease Following Metastatectomy

1 .To evaluate disease-free survival with pazopanib as compared to placebo, defined as the time from randomization to the development of recurrent disease, second primary cancer (other than localized breast, localized prostate, or non-melanoma skin cancer) or death from any cause for patients with metastatic RCC with no evidence of disease following metastatectomy.

TAC113886: A Phase I Dose Escalation Open-Label, Safety, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study to Determine the Recommended Phase II Dose of GSK1120212 Dosed in Combination with GSK2141795

Primary: Part 1A: To determine the safety, tolerability and recommended Phase II dose of GSK1120212 and GSK2141795 administered in combination orally, once daily continuously. Part 1B: To determine the safety, tolerability and recommended Phase II dose of GSK1120212 and GSK2141795 administered in combination with an alternate schedule (i.e., at least one agent is dosed intermittently). Part 2A, 2B: To evaluate the clinical activity of GSK1120212 and GSK2141795 administered in combination in subjects with solid tumors that are predicted to be sensitive to the inhibition of MEK and/or AKT, including TNBC and BRAF-wild type melanoma.
Secondary: (1) To characterize the PK of GSK1120212 and GSK2141795 for a once daily continuous dosing schedule (Part 1A) and/or an intermittent dosing schedule (Part 1B). (2) Part 1A, Part 1B to evaluate the clinical activity of GSK1120212 and GSK2141795 in subjects with solid tumors. (3) Parts 1 and 2, to characterize the durability of response with GSK1120212 and GSK2141795 dosed orally in combination. (4) To evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) response in tumors after treatment with the combination of GSK1120212 and GSK2141795. (5) To explore relationships between study drug PK, PD and clinical activity.
Translational: To explore the association of clinical and PD endpoints with genetic and protein profiles from blood and/or tumor tissue.
