Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines made from melanoma cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells Vaccine therapy plus filgrastim combined with a specific protein may be a more effective treatment for melanoma

PURPOSE This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma that has been completely removed during surgery
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the maximum tolerated dose of filgrastim G-CSF-fetal liver tyrosine kinase-3 Flt3K fusion protein when combined with melanoma peptide vaccine comprising tyrosinase368-376 peptide gp100209-217 antigen and MART-126-35 antigen emulsified in Montanide ISA-51 in patients with completely resected stage III or IV melanoma II Determine the toxicity and safety of this regimen in these patients III Determine the immune responses to tyrosinase MART-1 and gp100 antigens in patients before during and after receiving these vaccinations

OUTLINE This is a dose escalation multicenter study of filgrastim G-CSF-fetal liver tyrosine kinase-3 Flt3K G-CSF-Flt3K fusion protein Patients receive melanoma peptide vaccine comprising tyrosinase368-376 peptide gp100209-217 antigen and MART-126-35 antigen emulsified in Montanide ISA-51 subcutaneously SQ monthly for 6 months and then at 9 and 12 months for a total of 8 vaccinations Patients receive G-CSF-Flt3K fusion protein SQ daily for 3 days before immediately after and then daily for 6 days after each vaccination Cohorts of 6-10 patients receive escalating doses of G-CSF-Flt3K fusion protein until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6-10 patients experience dose limiting toxicity Patients are followed every 3 months through year 2 after resection every 6 months for 3 years and then annually thereafter until disease progression

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 30-50 patients will be accrued for this study within 12-18 months
