    Cut the vine as much as you can and providing there is nothing else around it try Brush B Gone by Ortho

    Dig up the roots- which grows very large . we have a burn barrel and we burn the roots.

    agree on cutting it back as best you can. See if you can get your hands on a product called Crossbow. It's not cheap but it works on anything that has a woody vine-like invasive plant in it's tracks! Good luck!
