At present, dacarbazine (Dacarbazine Medac®) is the most commonly used therapy. Immunotherapy with IL-2 and IFN is an alternative, but it is associated with multiple side effects. Hence, there remains a considerable need for alternative treatments.\n\nBy using SentoClone®, autologous tumour-reactive lymphocytes are expanded and infused to the patient, where they have the opportunity to seek out and attack the primary tumour and metastases. The first step is to identify the tumour draining lymph node(s), which is done in parallel to surgical resection of the primary tumour or metastasis. The sentinel and/or metinel node(s), the initial meeting place between tumour antigen and the immune system, are further dissected and collected during the surgery.\n\nIn this study SentoClone® will be compared with Dacarbazine Medac® and Temodal® which are currently regarded as standard first-line therapies in advanced malignant melanoma.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria\n\nTo be eligible for inclusion in this study, the patients must fulfil all of the following criteria:\n\n1.

Dacarbazine is a cytostatic agent, which inhibits tumour growth by interfering with DNA-synthesises. The DNA-synthesis is inhibited by alkylation of the DNA molecule; however, it is unclear whether dacarbazine has other cytostatic impacts on cell mechanisms. Dacarbazine is inactive until liver passage, the liver converts dacarbazine to its reactive metabolites MTIC and HMMTIC, which alkylate DNA. Dacarbazine is light sensitive and needs to be administered intravenously.\n\nA newer analogue to dacarbazine, temozolomide (Temodal®), has been developed for oral administration. Temodal® is administered in capsules and is rapidly absorbed reaching peak concentrations after 20 minutes.
