About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of Autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (LN-145) in Patients With Pretreated Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of TIL therapy in patients with metastatic TNBC who have progressed on at least one and no more than three prior systemic anticancer therapies.

Read the detailed description

The primary aims of the study are:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) patients by determining the objective response rate (ORR), using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator.
  • To characterize the safety profile of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients as measured by the incidence of Grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).

The secondary aims of the study are:

  • To further evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients using complete response duration of response (DOR), disease control rate (DCR), and progression-free survival (PFS), using RECIST 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator, overall survival (OS) and (CR) rate.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) LN-145Drug

    The TIL autologous therapy with LN-145 is comprised of the following steps:

    1. Tumor resection to provide the autologous tissue that serves as the source of the TIL cellular product;
    2. LN-145 investigational product production at a central Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) facility;
    3. A 7-day nonmyeloablative lymphodepletion (NMA-LD) preconditioning regimen (hospitalization per institution standards);
    4. Infusion of the autologous LN-145 product on Day 0 (during inpatient hospitalization);
    5. Intravenous (IV) interleukin-2 (IL-2) administrations for up to six doses maximum (during inpatient hospitalization).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) patients by determining the objective response rate (ORR), using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator. Upon results entry, the time frame was updated to reflect the latest time point that a participant was assessed for ORR in the study.

    Measured: Up to 4 months

  2. Safety Profile

    To characterize the safety profile of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients as measured by the incidence of Grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Incidence is presented as a count of participants that experienced at least 1 TEAE of Grade ≥ 3.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Duration of Response (DOR) in Days

    To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients in participants that have a clinical response (either partial response (PR) or complete response (CR)) using duration of response (DOR), using RECIST 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator will be used.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients using disease control rate (DCR), using RECIST 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator will be used. Percentage of patients whose disease shrinks or remains stable over a certain time period.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  3. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer patients, median progression-free survival (PFS) days, using RECIST 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator will be used.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. Overall Survival (OS)

    To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast patients overall survival (OS) median days will be used.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  5. Complete Response (CR)

    To evaluate the efficacy of autologous LN-145 as a single therapy in Metastatic Triple Negative Breast patients complete response, using RECIST 1.1, as assessed by the Investigator will be used. The number of participants with a complete response.

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) LN-145 in people with Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer, run by Yale University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 23 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Feb 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Up to 4 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04111510, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Nov 2024.
