Brief Summary: RATIONALE Inserting the gene for interleukin-12 into a persons skin tumor cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells
PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of interleukin-12 gene therapy in treating patients who have skin metastases
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES
Determine the safety and toxicity of interleukin-12 gene in patients with spontaneous skin metastases Determine the antitumor immune response in patients treated with this regimen Compare the toxicity of this regimen administered for 1 week vs 2 weeks in these patients Compare the local and systemic antitumor response in patients treated with this regimen administered for 1 week vs 2 weeks
OUTLINE Patients are stratified according to number of tumor sites 1 vs 2 vs 3 or more Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment arms
Group A Patients receive interleukin-12 gene intratumorally over 5 minutes on days 1 3 and 5 Group B Patients receive IL-12 gene intratumorally over 5 minutes on days 1 3 5 8 10 and 12
Patients with stable or responding disease may receive 1 subsequent course beginning on day 29
Patients are followed at 3 6 and 12 months
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 12 patients 6 per treatment group will be accrued for this study
