Summary

This phase I trial investigates the effects of influenza vaccine in treating patients with stage I-IV melanoma. While intramuscular administration of influenza vaccine provides immunization against the influenza virus, giving influenza vaccine directly into the tumor (intralesional) may decrease the size of the injected melanoma tumor, or the extent of the melanoma within the body.

Conditions

  • Clinical Stage I Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage IA Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage IB Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage II Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage IIA Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage IIB Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage IIC Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Clinical Stage IV Cutaneous Melanoma AJCC v8
  • Metastatic Melanoma
