Summary

The overall goal of this study is to investigate the safety of T4 immunotherapy when administered to treat loco-regional disease in Squamous Cell Cancer of the Head and Neck (SCCHN) that is not suitable for conventional active therapy.

The investigators propose to conduct an open-labelled, non-randomized, dose-escalation phase I trial in which autologous T4+ T-cells are administered to patients with SCCHN. T-cells will be engineered to express a second generation chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) named T1E28z. Engineered T-cells will be injected directly into the tumour site. Patients will not be lymphodepleted. A classical 3+3 design will be employed, with dose escalation from 10\^7 through to 10\^9 transduced T4+ T-cells, dependent upon toxicity monitoring. It is anticipated that up to 30 patients will be enrolled over the course of the study.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Intra-tumoral T4 immunotherapy

Intra-tumoral administration of a single dose of T4-positive patient-derived T-cells (at five escalating dose levels) contained within 1-4 mL. Cohort 6 patients receive CAR T-cells (dose level 3) after lymphodepletion with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide. Cohort 7-8 patients receive T4 cells after lymphodepletion as above, combined with 4 doses of nivolumab.
