Brief Summary: RATIONALE Biological therapies use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing Combining different types of biological therapies may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of biological therapy following surgery in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Evaluate the efficacy of immunotherapy with irradiated autologous tumor cell vaccine and sargramostim GM-CSF followed by monoclonal antibody OKT3- activated T lymphocytes and interleukin-2 in combination with surgery in terms of response rate in patients with stage III or IV malignant melanoma
Determine the immunogenicity of malignant melanoma in this patient population

OUTLINE Patients are stratified according to extent of disease extent of antigen specific response to vaccination performance status 0 vs 1 prior therapy yes vs no and gender

Patients undergo surgical resection of tumor on week 1 Within 1-2 weeks of surgery patients are vaccinated with irradiated autologous tumor cells and sargramostim GM-CSF then receive GM-CSF alone intradermally at vaccination sites daily for 4 days Patients are revaccinated 2 weeks later

Patients undergo peripheral blood mononuclear cell collection two weeks after the second vaccination Peripheral blood mononuclear cells are stimulated with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody OKT3 and interleukin-2 producing activated T lymphocytes The activated T lymphocytes are infused IV over 1-6 hours followed by 5 doses of interleukin-2 IV every other day over 10 days Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Patients may receive one additional course of immunotherapy as above

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years then every 6 months thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 60 patients will be accrued for this study
