Adoptive Tumor-infiltrating Lymphocyte Transfer With Nivolumab for Melanoma
Study Purpose
This study is to investigate safety and feasibility of a combination therapy of a tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) transfer with anti-programmed cell death protein (PD)-1 therapy in patients with metastatic melanoma that failed immunotherapy.Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes will be expanded from resected melanoma samples from the patient and expanded TILs will be transferred to the patient after non-myeloablative chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. TIL transfer will be combined with low dose Interleukin (IL)-2 and nivolumab anti-PD-1 treatment. The study uses a personalized Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP), i.e. TIL product and in combination with IL-2 treatment and nivolumab.

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT04165967 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
