Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so
they stop growing or die. Biological therapies use different ways to stimulate the immune
system and stop cancer cell from growing. Combining more than one drug with different types
of biological therapies may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus
biological therapy in treating patients who have metastatic melanoma.
