Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines made from a tumor antigen gene may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells Interleukin-12 may kill tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor and by stimulating a persons white blood cell to kill melanoma cells Combining vaccine therapy with interleukin-12 may kill more melanoma cells

PURPOSE Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy plus interleukin-12 in treating patients who have metastatic melanoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose level of the vaccine consisting of MAGE-3 or Melan-A human tumor antigen genes peptide-pulsed autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells plus interleukin-12 II Determine if the procedure results in successful immunization III Assess the response of the tumor to the vaccine

OUTLINE This is an open label nonrandomized single institution study Patients receive 3 initial courses of treatment consisting of 21 days each Treatment consists of an immunization with MAGE-3 or Melan-A peptide-loaded autologous PBMC and interleukin-12 IL-12 on the first day IL-12 on days 3 and 5 and 16 days of rest The first cohort is not administered IL-12 and the next cohorts are given escalating doses of IL-12 The Phase II dose will be one dose level below the MTD Patients who have a tumor remission response or stable disease may continue treatment for up to one year Phase I completed as of 041999 Patients are followed every 3 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 34 patients will be accrued for this study
