Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Biological therapies, such as GM-CSF, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Giving paclitaxel together with GM-CSF may be effective in treating melanoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving paclitaxel together with GM-CSF works in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery.

Investigators

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.
