Arm group label:
Tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte transfer combined with ANV419
Summary:
In this study we aim to investigate safety and tolerability of tumor-infiltrating
lymphocytes (TIL) adoptive cell therapy (ACT) incorporation in-vivo TIL expansion with
ANV419 in patients with advanced melanoma
Detailed description:
In brief, this trial consists of four study periods: screening, pre-treatment, treatment,
and observational follow-up.
In the screening period, patients are screened for trial eligibility. In the
pre-treatment period, patients have excisional biopsy/surgical resection of tumor
lesion(s) (tumor collection) and TILs are expanded from this lesion/these lesions (TIL
expansion). Patients are permitted to receive bridging therapy outside of the study
protocol.
In the treatment period, patients have TIL-ACT. TIL-ACT includes a detailed procedure of
preparative chemotherapy, followed by transfer of the TIL product, followed by in-vivo
TIL expansion with ANV419 (2 doses). TIL transfer is defined as day 0 in the study
protocol. Patients have an End of Treatment visit (14 days after the last study
treatment), a safety follow-up (30 days after the last study treatment) and an efficacy
follow up, which is the End of Study visit (day +90).
Thereafter, patients will transfer to observational follow-up, which is conducted every 3
months until 1 year after TIL transfer.
Patients who terminate the study prematurely during any of the treatment period due to
e.g., disease progression, toxicity, patient wish, etc. will also transfer to
observational follow-up.
The regimen (TIL-ACT with ANV419) has not been tested. Review by the IDSMB (independent
data safety monitoring board) will be performed after 3 patients (safety check).
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients who meet all the following criteria will be eligible to participate in the
study:
- Must provide written informed consent for the study.
- Must be able to comply with the study protocol as judged by the investigator.
- Are ≥ 18 years. 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0-1.
- Have pathologically confirmed stage III (unresectable) or stage IV (metastatic)
cutaneous melanoma, as per the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system,
8th edition, and have experienced disease progression and exhausted all approved
treatment option with curative intent.
- Have received at least one prior systemic treatment line of PD-(L)1 inhibitor and
BRAF/MEK inhibition in case of BRAFV600 mutated melanoma. Adjuvant systemic
treatment terminated ≥12 months prior to diagnosis of metastatic disease is not
counted as a treatment line.
- Accessible tumor lesion(s) for TIL collection and willingness of the patient to
undergo biopsy/resection of tumor lesion(s).
- Measurable disease as per RECIST v1.1 (following biopsy/resection of tumor lesion(s)
for TIL collection).
- Adequate organ function (pulmonary, cardiovascular, hematological, hepatic, and
renal function) per investigator's judgment. Cardiac stress testing is mandatory for
all patients with underlying cardiac conditions and patients with age ≥50 years. 10.
Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test
at the screening visit and a negative serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to
start of preparative chemotherapy (day -7 in the study protocol).
- Female patients who are not postmenopausal, and who have not undergone surgical
sterilization, must agree to use highly effective methods of contraception during
the entire study period and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug. They
must also agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) during the same timeframe.
- Male patients with partners of childbearing potential must agree to use highly
effective methods of contraception and barrier contraception (condom) during the
entire study period and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug. They must
also agree not to donate sperm during the same timeframe.
Exclusion Criteria:
- LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) ≥ 2x upper limit of normal (ULN).
- Life-expectancy ≤ 3 months per investigator's judgment.
- Have not recovered (i.e., ≤ Grade 1 or at baseline with the exception of alopecia or
fatigue [up to Grade 2 allowed]) from immune-related adverse events (irAEs)
resulting from prior immunotherapies. Patients who have endocrine immune-related AEs
controlled by replacement therapy (i.e., hypothyroidism) due to previous treatment
are eligible provided replacement therapy has been initiated and toxicity has
returned to Grade 1.
- Have not recovered (i.e., ≤ Grade 1 or at baseline) from toxicities due to a
previously administered chemotherapy, targeted small molecule therapy, or radiation
therapy.
Note: If the patient received major surgery, they must have recovered adequately from the
toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to starting study drug. Major
surgery is defined as any surgery requiring entrance into a body cavity (e.g., chest,
abdomen, or brain), organ removal, normal anatomy alteration, or joint replacement. Minor
surgery is defined as any surgery in which skin, mucosa, or connective tissue sections
are altered (e.g., biopsy, cataract, endoscopic procedures, etc.).
- Have been diagnosed with uveal/ocular or mucosal melanoma.
- Have a known additional malignancy (including all in-situ carcinoma) that is
progressing or required active treatment within 2 years prior to enrollment.
Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin or squamous cell carcinoma of
the skin that have undergone potentially curative therapy and have no evidence of
disease or in situ cervical cancer in patients who completed cancer-directed therapy
or have evidence of stable disease and do not require active treatment.
- Have active central nervous system metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis
regardless of clinical stability. Patients with previously treated brain metastases
may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging
for at least 4 weeks prior to study treatment (day -7 in the study protocol), and
any neurologic symptom has returned to baseline. New or enlarging brain metastases,
as well as the use of steroids (≥10 mg of prednisone daily or equivalent) within the
last 7 days prior to study drug are excluded.

reason. Local steroid therapies (e.g., otic, ophthalmic, intra-articular, or inhaled
medications) are acceptable. -
- Have an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2
years (i.e., with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids, or
immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or
physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary
insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. 11. Have a
known history of, or any evidence of active, non-infectious pneumonitis.
- Have an active (measurable) and uncontrolled (unresponsive to current therapy)
infectious disease (bacterial, fungal, viral, protozoic).

interest of the patient to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator.
- Have known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with
cooperation with the requirements of the study.
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding or expecting to conceive or father children within the
projected duration of the study, starting with the Screening Visit through 6 months
after the last dose of study drug.
