About

Clinical Study on the Safety and Efficacy of specific TIL-TCM cells for advanced relapse-refractory or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Full description

This is a single arm, open-label, single-center study.This study is indicated for advanced relapse-refractory or metastatic pancreatic cancer.The selections of dose levels and the number of subjects are based on clinical trials of similar foreign products. Primary objective is to explore the safety, main consideration is dose-related safety.

Enrollment: 3 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 70 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Aged≥18 years old and ≤70 years old when signing the informed consent; regardless of gender;Body weight>40kg.
2. Patients with advanced recurrent refractory or metastatic pancreatic cancer who have failed at least one standard treatment or who are unable to tolerate, unwilling or financially unable to receive standard treatment.
3. The subject will have at least one eligible tissue or sample available for cell preparation.
4. Patients with brain metastatic lesions who are asymptomatic , the diameter of a single lesion ≤1 cm, and the number of lesions ≤3 may be eligible.
5. Patients should have good clinical presentation status (ECOG 0 or 1).
6. HIV antibody and treponema pallidum antibody was negative.
7. Vital organ function test (do not accept any cytokines or blood transfusion within 14 days prior to test):

Trial design

Primary purpose: Treatment

Allocation: N/A

Interventional model: Single Group Assignment

Masking: None (Open label)

3 participants in 1 patient group

adoptive TIL-TCM transfer

Experimental group

Description:

TIL-TCM cells are isolated from the patients' Tumor tissue (or ascites) and peripheral blood obtained before standard chemotherapy and then cultured ex-vivo. The first infusion will be conducted in 7-10 days after chemotherapy and is assessed by the investigators.TIL-TCM cells are transfused to patients in a dosage escalated manner.The total dose was 1× 109-1 ×1010 cells.After cell infusion, IL-2 was administered at 720000 IU/kg (based on whole body weight) by intravenous (I.V.),every 8 hours for up to 4 days.

Treatment:

Drug: Adoptive TIL-TCM transfer therapy
