Description: For this phase 2, single-group assignment study, researchers are evaluating whether polylysine and carboxymethylcellulose (poly-ICLC) vaccination is safe and efficacious for patients with melanoma, head and neck cancer, sarcoma, or a non-melanoma skin cancer.

All patients will have unresectable tumors previously treated with systemic therapy or radiation.

The primary study outcomes are safety and disease control rate. Secondary outcomes include overall survival and progression-free survival.
