Adoptive T Cell Immunotherapy for Advanced Melanoma Using Engineered Lymphocytes: A Phase 1b Study
Loyola University
Summary
Phase I clinical trial to determine the Phase II dose of autologous TIL 1383I TCR gene modified T Cells using a retrovirus. This is a novel National Cancer Institute (NCI) funded investigator initiated therapy for patients with advanced melanoma.
Description
This is a Phase 1 dose escalation study designed to find the highest dose of TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells that can safely be given. Three cohorts of 3 patients will be treated with increasing doses of TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells. Patients will be monitored clinically and immunologically for a year after infusion. Subjects in Cohort 1 will receive 7.5 X 10\^6/kg TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells. Subjects in Cohort 2 will receive 2.5 x 10\^7/kg TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells. Subjects in Cohort 3 will receive 7.5 x 10\^7/kg TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells.

Interventions
- BiologicalEscalating Doses
Subjects will receive a single infusion of autologous bulk TIL 13831 TCR transduced T cells supported with low dose IL-2. Autologous bulk TIL 13831 TCR transduced T cells means the infusion will consist of a polyclonal mixture of CD4 + and CD8+ T Cells expressing the TIL 13831 TCR. Subjects in Cohort 1 will receive 7.5 x 10\^6/kg TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells. Subjects in Cohort 2 will receive 2.5 x 10\^7/kg TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells. Subjects in Cohort 3 will receive 7.5 x 10\^7/kg TIL 1383I TCR transduced T cells.
