Summary

This prospective, single-center pilot study is being performed to find out whether Zr-89 crefmirlimab berdoxam "CD8 PET/CT" scans can improve the effectiveness of the tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy called lifileucel ("Study Treatment") in treating metastatic melanoma.

Participants must first provide consent to the companion protocol (UPCC 19426, PICSTAT CD8 PET) before being eligible to consent to this protocol.

Conditions

  • Unresectable or Metastatic Melanoma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Resection of PET (high) and PET (low) Tumors

Harvest of two tumors to obtain tissue for manufacturing the autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) cellular product.

BIOLOGICAL

Lifileucel Manufacturing Clinical v Research

Production of lifileucel (AMTAGVI) for participant infusion) and comparator lifileucel (AMTAGVI) at a centralized Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)-compliant facility.

DRUG

Chemotherapy Regimen

Administration of a 7-day lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy regimen prior to lifileucel infusion.

BIOLOGICAL

Lifileucel Infusion

Administration of CD8 PET-guided infusion of lifileucel (AMTAGVI) on Day 0 following completion of the lymphodepleting chemotherapy regimen.

DRUG

IL-2

Administration of up to six doses of intravenous interleukin-2 (IL-2) following lifileucel (AMTAGVI) infusion.

PROCEDURE

CD8 PET

CD8 PET/CT imaging will be performed before tumor resection and after lifileucel (AMTAGVI) administration (PET1).
