Summary

The purpose of this research study is to study a type of gene therapy treatment called plasmid electroporation. This type of treatment involves the injection of a gene into some melanoma tumors located near the surface of the skin, followed by a burst of electricity into the tumor to cause the tumor to take up the gene. This study is a Phase I study to determine the side effects and the correct dose of this type of treatment and also its effectiveness in treating melanoma. While the electroporation technique has been used in people, the combination of plasmid injection and electroporation is being tried in human beings for the first time.

Conditions

  • Malignant Melanoma

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

IL-12p DNA

Plasmid IL-12 will be administered as an intratympanic (IT) injection.

PROCEDURE

Intratumoral Electroporation

The electroporation apparatus with the electrical contacts will be placed around the tumor site and activated.
