Details and patient eligibility

About

The aim of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and anti-tumoral activity of autologous T cells transduced with a T cell receptor specific for MAGE-A1 in eligible patients with advanced solid tumors.

Full description

This is a Phase 1/2, first-in-human, open-label, accelerated titration, two-part clinical trial of TK-8001 (MAGE-A1-directed TCR-transduced autologous CD8+ T-cells) in subjects with HLA-A*02:01 genotype and advanced stage/metastatic, MAGE-A1+ solid tumors (including but not limited to melanoma [skin or uveal], NSCLC, urothelial, breast, gastric [including gastroesophageal junction], esophageal, sarcoma, HNSCC, HCC, biliary tract, cervical, and salivary gland cancer) that either have no further approved therapeutic alternative or are not eligible for them or that are in a non-curable state as per the Investigator's assessment and have received a minimum of two lines of systemic therapy.

This two-part clinical trial will consist of a Phase 1 Part, which includes dose-escalation and expansion, and a Phase 2 Part.

In the Phase 1 Part dose-escalation, at least 6 subjects and up to 18 subjects (if DLT occurs) will receive escalating doses of TK-8001, with up to three dose levels explored. During the Phase 1 Part expansion, up to 20 additional subjects may be treated on DL3 if cleared during dose escalation to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of TK-8001 (Cohort 1).

An additional cohort of up to 10 subjects with brain metastases (Cohort 2) may also be treated on DL3 if cleared during dose-escalation. The maximum total number of subjects to be treated on DL3 during Phase 1 will be 33 subjects.

In the Phase 2 Part, up to 30 patients will receive TK-8001 to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of TK-8001 and to confirm the RP2D.

Both the Phase 1 Part and Phase 2 Part of the trial will consist of the following periods: Screening and Leukapheresis Period, Conditioning Period, TK-8001 Treatment Period, DLT Monitoring Period, Short-term Follow-up Period (Year 1), and Long-term Follow-up Period (Year 2 - 15).
