Preclinical data and design of a phase I clinical trial of neoantigen-reactive TILs for advanced epithelial or ICB-resistant solid cancers
Background
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) of ex vivo expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) can mediate objective tumor regression in 28%-49% of metastatic melanoma patients. However, the efficacy of TIL therapy in most epithelial cancers remains limited. We present the design of a phase I clinical study that aims to assess the safety and efficacy of NEXTGEN-TIL, a TIL product selected based on ex vivo neoantigen recognition, in patients with advanced epithelial tumors and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB)-resistant solid tumors.
Materials and methods
Pre-rapid expansion protocol (REP) TIL cultures expanded in high-dose interleukin 2 (HD-IL-2) from patients with metastatic solid tumors were screened for recognition of autologous tumor cell lines (TCLs) and/or neoantigens. Six good manufacturing practice (GMP)-grade validations of pre-REP TIL expansion were carried out and TIL cultures from these six intermediate products were selected to carry out the clinical-scale GMP validation of the REP.
Results
TILs expanded in 82% of patient-derived tumor biopsies across different cancer types and these frequently contained tumor- and neoantigen-reactive T cells. During GMP validations, a variable number of TIL cultures expanded, constituting the intermediate products (pre-REP). Three finished products were manufactured using a REP which reached cell doses ranging from 4.3e9 to 1.1e11 and met the established specifications. The NEXTGEN-TIL clinical trial entails a first expansion of TILs from tumor fragments in HD-IL-2 followed by TIL screening for neoantigen recognition and REP of selected neoantigen-reactive TIL cultures. Treatment involves a classical non-myeloablative lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by NEXTGEN-TIL product administration together with HD-IL-2.
Conclusions
NEXTGEN-TIL exploits ex vivo expanded neoantigen-reactive TIL to potentially improve efficacy in patients with epithelial and ICB-resistant tumors, with a safety profile like traditional TILs.
