What this Trial Is About
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in combination with lymphodepletion and high-dose interleukin 2 (IL-2) has demonstrated reproducible objective response rates of approximately 50 percent in patients with highly advanced, refractory metastatic melanoma. Recent developments in theTIL ACT procedure facilitate the use of a reduced-intensity, non-myeloablative, lympho-depleting preparative regimen which is expected to be both less toxic and equally efficient compared to previous regimens. Recently patients recruited post Anti PD-1 therapy had inferior responses in comparison to the pre immune checkpoint inhibitors era. Therefore 2 new arms were added: 1. TIL-ACT with combination of 2 doses of Nivolumab fixed dose 480mg, pre and post TIL. 2. TIL-ACT with FMT given using colonoscopy once and 2 maintenance doses of 12 orally ingested capsules, concurrently with a single dose of Ipilimumab 1 mg/kg up to 100 mg.
