A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Trial To Evaluate Safety, Tolerability And Immune Pharmacodynamics Of Combined Administration Of Tremelimumab (Blocking Anti-CTLA-4 Antibody) And CP-870,893 (Agonist Anti-CD40 Antibody) In Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the safety, dose-limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated doses of
tremelimumab (administered intravenously every 12 weeks) and CP- 870,893 (administered
intravenously every 3 weeks).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I To seek preliminary evidence of anti-tumor efficacy of the combination of tremelimumab and
CP-870,893, including objective response rate at MTD.
II. To determine the immune pharmacodynamic changes associated with the administration of
the combination of tremelimumab and CP-870,893.
OUTLINE: Patients receive tremelimumab IV over 1 hour on day 1 and CD40 agonist monoclonal
antibody CP-870,893 IV over 30 minutes on days 2, 22, 43, and 64. Treatment repeats every 12
weeks for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 4 weeks.

Endpoint Classification: Safety Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Toxicity as assessed by CTCAE v3.0
Toxicities which occur during later cycles will be monitored and described separately. The MTD is defined as the dose level at which 0-1/6 patients experience DLT in the first 12 week cycle and at least 2/3 or 2/6 patients treated at the next higher dose level (unless MTD is level 4) experience DLT in the first 12 week cycle.
