Clinical feasibility and treatment outcomes with nonselected autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte therapy in patients with advanced cutaneous melanoma.

ABSTRACT: Nonselected autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) may provide advantages over other treatments for solid tumors, including checkpoint inhibitor-refractory melanoma. This retrospective analysis reports a single-center experience of nonselected autologous TILs derived from digested tumors for compassionate use treatment of advanced cutaneous melanoma, including after programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibition. Patients with histologically confirmed metastatic cutaneous melanoma and no standard-of-care treatment options underwent tumor resection for TIL product manufacturing. Patients received lymphodepleting chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide for 2 days and fludarabine for 5 days, followed by a single TIL infusion and post-TIL high-dose interleukin (IL)-2.
