Participant flow

Recruitment details

Participants took part at 4 investigative sites in the United States from 03-September-2008 to 28-March-2010.

Pre-assignment details

A total of 26 participants were enrolled in the study. The study consisted of two cycles of aldesleukin, each cycle consisted of a 5-day period and a 9-day rest period between cycles.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
mRCC Group
Participants with mRCC were administered aldesleukin 600,000 IU/kg (0.037 mg/kg) as a 15-minute IV infusion every 8 hours for a maximum of 14 doses for the first cycle (5-day cycle). Following 9 days of rest from therapy, the cycle was repeated for up to 14 doses (i.e., a total of up to 28 doses), if tolerated.
7
Metastatic Melanoma Group
Participants with metastatic melanoma were administered aldesleukin 600,000 IU/kg (0.037 mg/kg) as a 15-minute IV infusion every 8 hours for a maximum of 14 doses for the first cycle (5-day cycle). Following 9 days of rest from therapy, the cycle was repeated for up to 14 doses (i.e., a total of up to 28 doses), if tolerated.

Outcome results

Primary

Change in the Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) From 0 to 8 Hours (AUC0-8) of Aldesleukin After One Cycle of Therapy

Time frame: From Cycle 1, Day 1 to Cycle 2, Day 15

Population: The Pharmacokinetic Analysis (PK) set consisted of all participants in the safety set who completed two cycles of aldesleukin therapy and had evaluable post-baseline blood samples on Cycle 1, Day 1 and Cycle 2, Day 15. The Safety set consists of all participants who received at least one dose of aldesleukin and had at least one post-baseline safety assessment.
