This trial is for adults aged 18–72 with metastatic skin melanoma resistant to PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. A removable tumor lesion is needed to grow immune cells.
The idea: tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes are collected, grown, and returned by infusion after cyclophosphamide/fludarabine conditioning. High-dose IL-2 supports the cell treatment. The current group receives pembrolizumab unless contraindications prevent it. Earlier groups are closed; current assignment is not randomized. Treatment requires hospitalization, tumor collection, and leukapheresis. Researchers measure tumor responses.
This phase 2 study plans 53 patients. Stephanie Goff leads at NCI in Bethesda, the sole recruiting US site.
