Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IV or unresectable stage III non-ocular malignant melanoma who have not undergone prior chemotherapy (chemotherapy-naive) 2.

Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Known brain metastases 2. Diagnosis of ocular malignant melanoma 3. Radiotherapy to more than 30 % of bone marrow 4. Participation in another therapeutic Clinical Study within 30 days of enrolment or during this Clinical Study 5. Prior immuno- and/or chemotherapy including vaccines for the treatment of melanoma 6. Requirement of concomitant treatment with a non-permitted medication: • Alternative drugs • High doses of vitamins 7. History of allergic reactions to Ara-C or egg 8. Presence of any serious concomitant systemic disorders incompatible with the Clinical Study (e.g. uncontrolled inter-current illness including ongoing or active infection) 9. Presence of any significant central nervous system or psychiatric disorder(s) that would hamper the patient’s compliance 10.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the objective tumour response in chemotherapy-naive patients with metastatic melanoma when treated with CP-4055 for infusion D1-5/4w.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the - Time to progression - Duration of tumour response - Safety and tolerability of the CP-4055 treatment ;Primary end point(s): Tumour response defined as Complete Response (CR) and/or Partial Response (PR), characterized by measuring the target lesions, and according to the RECIST criteria. The Response Rate (= PR + CR) will be estimated and a 95 % confidence interval calculated. | — |
