Brief Summary: This is a multicenter randomized phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral ATN-224 plus temozolomide in patients with advanced melanoma Patients will be randomized 11 between temozolomide and ATN-224 and temozolomide followed by ATN-224 Patients assigned to the sequential treatment group will receive temozolomide until progression of disease is documented and then receive ATN-224 as a single agent until documentation of progression of disease using the last tumor assessment on temozolomide therapy as the baseline assessment
Detailed Description: According to the National Cancer Institute PDQ database advanced melanoma is refractory to most standard systemic therapy and all newly diagnosed patients should be considered candidates for clinical trials Although advanced melanoma is relatively resistant to therapy several biologic response modifiers and cytotoxic agents have been reported to produce objective responses Once melanoma is metastatic treatments are palliative rather than curative In spite of many attempts at multimodality therapy the prognosis in this disease remains poor Further agents are needed if progress is to be made with melanoma treatment

ATN-224 is an orally active small molecule that has been shown in cellular and animal models to be antiangiogenic and to have activity against melanoma cell lines Clinical studies with a similar agent ammonium tetrathiomolybdate indicate that the agent can be administered continuously on a daily basis for years in some patients ATN-224 has the potential to affect the progression of melanoma by mechanisms that include both antiangiogenic and antitumor pathways Temozolomide a commonly used agent for melanoma also has a tolerable profile
