Study Summary

This phase I trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of in situ immunomodulation with CDX-301, radiotherapy, CDX-1140 and Poly-ICLC (Cohort A) and these with intravenous (IV) pembrolizumab and subcutaneous (SC) tocilizumab (Cohort B) in treating patients with unresectable and measurable metastatic melanoma, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC), Merkel cell carcinoma, high-grade bone and soft tissue sarcoma or HER2/neu(-) breast cancer. CDX-301 may induce cross-presenting dendritic cells, master regulators in the immune system. Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill tumor cells and release antigens that may be picked up, processed and presented by cross-presenting dendritic cells. CDX-1140 and Poly-ICLC may activate tumor antigen-loaded,cross-presenting dendritic cells, and generate tumor-specific T lymphocytes, a type of immune cells, that can search out and attack cancers. Giving immune modulators and radiation therapy may stimulate tumor cell death and activate the immune system.
