A Study Using Tumor-Reactive Autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) in Metastatic Melanomas
- Conditions
- Metastatic Melanoma
- Interventions
- Biological: Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL)
- Registration Number
- NCT02375984
- Lead Sponsor
- Saint John's Cancer Institute
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this protocol is to determine whether autologous TIL infused in conjunction with systemic high-dose IL-2 after non-myeloablative chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine can cause consistent and durable objective responses in patients who have metastatic melanoma at the John Wayne Cancer Institute (JWCI).

Group Intervention Description Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) Patients will have a melanoma metastasis resected and cultured in IL-2 in vitro either as part of this treatment protocol or the JWCI procurement protocol. TIL from these cultures will be assessed for tumor-reactivity and those with such activity will be further expanded and adoptively transferred. Patients will receive a non-myeloablative lymphocyte-depleting preparative regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide (60 mg/kg/day X 2 days IV) and fludarabine (25 mg/m2/day IV X 5 days). Following this regimen, patients will receive an intravenous adoptive transfer of at least 109 tumor-reactive lymphocytes (TIL) followed by high-dose intravenous IL-2 (600-720,000 IU/kg/dose every 8 hours for up to 12 doses).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Clinical Response 12 weeks, or until development of new metastases or recurrence At the end of 12 week follow up, the proportion of patients that showed clinical response (CR) determined by the disappearance of all target lesions, or partial response (PR) will be calculated. The patient is determined to have partial response as if 30% reduction in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of target lesions are shown from the baseline sum LD.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Quality of Life 12 weeks, or until development of new metastases or recurrence Quality of Life will be assessed and scored per European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) quality of life questionnaire (QLQ) EORTC-QLQ-C30 version 3.0 requirements. The EORTC QLQ-C30 contains subscales for global health status, and physical, emotional, role, cognitive and social function with higher scores indicating better functioning (19). The change in QOL measured throughout the study period will be examined through mixed effect model adjusting for the baseline. Akaike information criteria (AIC) will be used to determine appropriate covariance structure.
