Baseline Peripheral Blood Biomarkers Associated with Clinical Outcome of Advanced Melanoma Patients Treated with Ipilimumab.
PURPOSE To identify baseline peripheral blood biomarkers associated with clinical outcome following ipilimumab treatment in advanced melanoma patients. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Frequencies of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and regulatory T cells (Treg), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), routine blood counts, and clinical characteristics were assessed in 209 patients. Endpoints were overa...
متن کاملClinical activity and safety of Pembrolizumab in Ipilimumab pre-treated patients with uveal melanoma
BACKGROUND Untreated metastatic uveal melanoma (UM) carries a grave prognosis. Unlike cutaneous melanoma (CM), there are no established treatments known to significantly improve outcomes for a meaningful proportion of patients. Inhibition of the PD1-PDL1 axis has shown promise in the management of CM and we here report a two center experience of UM patients receiving pembrolizumab. METHODS To...
متن کاملPredictors of toxicity for metastatic melanoma patients treated with ipilimumab
Introduction Immunotherapy with ipilimumab, a monoclonal antibody anti-Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4, demonstrated a survival advantage for metastatic melanoma patients, but the treatment is associated with immuno-related adverse events (irAEs) that may drive to severe comorbidities and challenge the treatment prosecution. No predictive factors for significant irAE (grade 3-4 according to Co...
متن کاملIpilimumab Pharmacotherapy in Patients with Metastatic Melanoma
Immune augmentation with ipilimumab, an anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody, has joined the ranks of approved immunologic agents for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. Phase III studies of ipilimumab in metastatic melanoma have demonstrated an overall survival advantage as compared to other approved and investigational therapies. However, the adverse effects associated with this medication are u...
متن کاملClinical Benefit from Ipilimumab Therapy in Melanoma Patients may be Associated with Serum CTLA4 Levels
Stage IV metastatic melanoma patients historically have a poor prognosis with 5-10% 5-year survival. Ipilimumab, a monoclonal antibody against cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4), is one of the first treatments to provide beneficial durable responses in advanced melanoma. However, less than 25% of those treated benefit, treatment is expensive, and side effects can be fatal. Since soluble (...
