Brief Summary:
Currently, there is no widely used adjuvant treatment available to improve survival after surgical excision of a primary melanoma. In a previous study, loco-regional and systemic immune stimulations, as well as favourable clinical outcomes in terms of sentinel lymph node (SLN) tumor status and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with clinical stage I-II melanoma who received a low dose of toll-like receptor 9 (TLR-9) CPG7909 (CpG-B ODN) intradermally at the excision site of the primary tumor prior to SLN biopsy (SNB) were described. In this phase II trial the investigators had investigated the clinical activity of a next-generation CpG-ODN, IMO-2125, and it's ability to induce loco-regional and systemic immune stimulation in pT3-4 cN0M0 melanoma patients who are scheduled to undergo a combined re-excision and SNB is

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The rate of tumor positive sentinal lymph node (SLN) [ Time Frame: Seven days after the intradermal injection of Tilsotolimod (IMO-2125) ]
    The rate of tumor positive sentinal lymph node (SLN)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Immune response in the SLN and peripheral blood [ Time Frame: Seven days after the intradermal injection of Tilsotolimod (IMO-2125) ]
    Frequency and activation state of lymph node resident (LNR) conventional dendritic cells (DC) and melanoma antigen-specific T cell responses in the SLN and peripheral blood.

  2. Recurrence free survival (RFS) [ Time Frame: At 5 years and 10 years after sentinel node biopsy (SNB) ]
    The length of time from intradermal injection of Tilsotolimod (IMO-2125) to first documentation of recurrence.

  3. Overall survival [ Time Frame: At 5 years and 10 years after sentinel node biopsy (SNB) ]
    The length of time from intradermal injection of Tilsotolimod (IMO-2125) to death from any cause.
