Adoptive Tumor-infiltrating Lymphocyte Transfer With Nivolumab for Melanoma (BaseTIL)

A Phase I Study of Adoptive Tumor-infiltrating Lymphocyte Transfer in Combination With Nivolumab in Patients With Advanced Melanoma

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.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Advanced Melanoma
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Combination of TIL Transfer with anti-PD-1 Therapy and low dose IL-2

Detailed Description

Adoptive cell therapy has been previously shown to be an effective treatment option for patients with melanoma. Due to an immunosuppressive microenvironment, not all patients respond to this therapy. In this trial, the immune suppressive microenvironment will be targeted by adding a PD-1 blocking antibody in combination with a TIL Transfer. 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 IL-2 and nivolumab anti-PD-1 treatment. The study uses a personalized IMP, i.e. TIL product and in combination with IL-2 treatment and nivolumab.

Intervention / Treatment

Experimental: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte product (TIL) transfer; The TIL product will be produced from excised tumor lesions from the patient. Expanded TILs will be transferred to the patient after non-myeloablative chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. TIL transfer will be combined with low dose IL-2 and nivolumab anti-PD-1 treatment. The transplant product will be produced in the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) facility of the University Hospital in Basel. TIL transfer to Patient at Day 0.

Drug: Combination of TIL Transfer with anti-PD-1 Therapy and low dose IL-2; The study uses a personalized IMP, i.e. TIL product and in combination with IL-2 treatment and nivolumab. Day 0: Autologous TIL: (minimum 5 x 109 and up to a maximum of 2 x 1011 lymphocytes) administered intravenously over 20 to 30 minutes. Day 0: Interleukin-2 (Proleukin): 125.000 IU/kg/day s.c. for maximum 12 days as inpatients with a 2 days break after the first 4-5 doses (maximum 10 days dosing). Actual body weight will be used in calculating the dose of interleukin-2. Starting Day 14: Nivolumab application 240 mg i.v. over 30 minutes ever 2 weeks with a maximum to 2 years, or until disease progression or inacceptable toxicity.; Other Names: TIL Transfer; anti-PD-1 Therapy Nivolumab; low dose IL-2
