Trial Information

Phase II Randomized, Open-Label Study of IMC-1121B With or Without Dacarbazine in Patients With Metastatic Malignant Melanoma


The purpose of this study is to determine the antitumor activity and safety profile of
ramucirumab when used alone or in combination with dacarbazine in patients with metastatic
melanoma who have not received prior chemotherapy for this disease.


Inclusion Criteria:



- The patient has histologically or cytologically confirmed melanoma that is stage IV
(metastatic)

- The patient has an ECOG PS of 0-1

- The patient has completed any prior radiotherapy, biologic/immunotherapy or vaccine
therapy (for adjuvant or advanced disease) at least six weeks prior to the first dose
of study therapy

- The patient has adequate hematological functions (absolute neutrophil count [ANC]≥
1500 cells/μL, hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL and platelets ≥ 100,000 cells/μL).

- The patient has adequate hepatic function (bilirubin within normal limits
[WNL],aspartate transaminase [AST] and/or alanine transaminase [ALT] ≤ 2.5 times the
upper limit of normal [ULN], or ≤ 5.0 times the ULN if the transaminase elevation is
due to liver metastases)

- The patient has serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN (or a calculated creatinine clearance >
60 mL/min)

- The patient's urinary protein ≤ 1+ on dipstick or routine urinalysis ([UA]; if urine
dipstick or routine analysis is ≥ 2+, a 24-hour urine for protein must demonstrate <
1000 mg of protein in 24 hours to allow participation in the study)

- The patient must have adequate coagulation function as defined by International
Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 and a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) ≤ 1.5 X ULN

Exclusion Criteria

- The patient has mucosal or intra-ocular melanoma

- The patient has known or suspected brain or leptomeningeal metastases

- The patient has had prior cytotoxic chemotherapy for metastatic malignant melanoma

- The patient has had more than one line of biologic, immunologic or vaccine-based
therapy for metastatic malignant melanoma (including therapy for adjuvant or advanced
disease)

- The patient has a nonhealing wound or ulcer

- The patient has a known alcohol or drug dependency

- The patient is pregnant or breastfeeding

- The patient has a coexisting medical or psychiatric problem of sufficient severity to
limit compliance with the study and/or increase the risks associated with study
participation or study drug administration or interfere with the interpretation of
study results

- The patient has an ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure,
unstable angina pectoris, symptomatic or poorly controlled cardiac arrhythmia,
psychiatric illness/social situations, or any other serious uncontrolled medical
disorders in the opinion of the investigator
