Brief Summary: RATIONALE Vaccines made from a persons white blood cells mixed with tumor proteins may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the efficacy of vaccination with autologous dendritic cells pulsed with tumor and influenza antigen peptides treated with vs without ex vivo CD40-ligand in terms of tumor-specific T-cell response in patients with HLA-A1 andor HLA-A21 positive stage III or IV melanoma
Determine the safety and tolerability of these vaccinations in these patients
Determine tumor response and recurrence rates in patients treated with these vaccinations

OUTLINE This is an open-label non-randomized study

Phase I Patients undergo leukapheresis for collection of peripheral blood mononuclear cells PBMC PBMC are cultured with sargramostim GM-CSF and interleukin-4 to generate dendritic cells DCs on day -9 DCs are pulsed separately with HLA-A1 and HLA-A21-restricted flu matrix peptides derived from melanoma-associated tumor antigens MAGE-10A2 Melan-A MAGE-3 NY-ESO-1 gp100 antigen and tyrosinase peptide Half of the DCs are treated ex vivo with CD40-ligand Patients receive the peptide-pulsed DC vaccinations subcutaneously SC on days 1 14 42 and 70 in the absence of disease progression

Patients who show tumor response at least stable disease at day 98 progress to phase II of the study

Phase II Patients undergo leukapheresis as in phase I on days 102 352 and 688 Patients receive up to 6 additional booster vaccinations SC as in phase I on days 126 184 268 356 520 and 692

Patients are followed for 10 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 8-30 patients will be accrued for this study within 6-12 months
