Study Summary

This randomized phase II trial is studying giving bevacizumab together with interferon alpha to see how well it works compared to giving bevacizumab alone in treating patients with metastatic malignant melanoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them. Interferon alpha may interfere with the growth of the cancer cells and slow the growth of the tumor. Combining bevacizumab with interferon alpha may kill more tumor cells.

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL Bevacizumab
  • BIOLOGICAL Recombinant Interferon Alfa
