Trial Outcomes & Findings for Immunotherapy Using Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes for Patients With Metastatic Melanoma (NCT NCT01468818)

NCT ID: NCT01468818

Last Updated: 2016-06-27

Results Overview

Response is determined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Complete response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions. Partial response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. Progressive disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Stable disease (SD) is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as references the smallest sum LD.

Measure
Immunotherapy for Metastatic Melanoma
Patients will receive non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen consisting of: Cyclophosphamide: Cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg/day X 2 days intravenous (IV) in 250 ml dextrose 5% in water (D5W) with Mesna 15 mg/kg/day X 2 days over 1 hr. Fludarabine: Fludarabine 25 mg/m2/day intravenous piggyback (IVPB) daily over 30 minutes for 5 days. Young Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL): Patients will receive non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide and fludarabine followed by the administration of young TIL. On day 0, cells (1x10e9 to 2x10e11) will be infused intravenously (i.v.) on the Patient Care Unit over 20 to 30 minutes (between one and four days after the last dose of fludarabine).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Once week and one month after transfer

Population: No data was collected or analyzed, thus we did not perform an evaluation of persistence for this trial. The reason is that we did not accrue a sufficient number of patients in a timely manner. A minimum of 35 subjects was needed to perform an analysis.

Determine level of transferred cells in the blood following a non-myeloablative lymphodepleting chemotherapy preparative regimen.
