Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells It is not yet known whether combining melanoma vaccine with interleukin-2 is more effective than vaccine therapy alone in treating metastatic melanoma

PURPOSE Phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of melanoma vaccine and interleukin-2 with that of melanoma vaccine alone in treating patients who have metastatic melanoma that has not responded to previous treatment
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the clinical response in patients with metastatic melanoma treated with immunization with recombinant fowlpox vaccine administered either intravenously or intramuscularly with or without interleukin-2 IL-2
Compare the immune response in patients before and after treatment with these regimens
Compare the toxicity profile of these regimens in these patients

OUTLINE This is a partially randomized study Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment cohorts

Cohort 1 Patients receive recombinant fowlpox virus encoding gp100 peptide fowlpox vaccine IV once every 4 weeks for up to 4 doses Closed to accrual as of 62102
Cohort 2 Patients receive fowlpox vaccine intramuscularly IM once every 4 weeks for up to 4 doses Closed to accrual as of 62104
Cohort 3 for patients in need of immediate interleukin-2 IL-2 and those with disease progression after treatment in cohorts 1 or 2 Patients receive fowlpox vaccine either IV or IM once every 4 weeks for 4 doses and IL-2 IV every 8 hours for a maximum of 12 doses beginning 24 hours after fowlpox vaccine

NOTE The IM route of administration was selected as the preferred route of administration from cohorts 1 and 2

Expanded cohort 2 open to accrual 71902 Patients receive fowlpox vaccine IM once every 4 weeks for up to 4 doses Upon disease progression patients receive fowlpox vaccine as above and IL-2 IV every 8 hours for a maximum of 12 doses beginning 24 hours after fowlpox vaccine Closed to accrual 12403 In all cohorts 3-4 weeks after the last injection patients achieving a complete remission may receive a maximum of an additional 2 courses of therapy Patients with responding disease may receive repeat vaccinations for up to 8 courses Patients with no response or progressive disease in cohorts not receiving IL-2 may be treated with fowlpox vaccine and IL-2 as in cohort 3 Patients who are randomized to receive IL-2 may not receive additional IL-2 therapy

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A maximum of 84 patients 24 in cohorts 1 and 2 19-33 in cohort 3 and 27 in expanded cohort 2 will be accrued for this study within 1 year
