Abstract 5231

Background

The use of cell based immune therapies involving infusion of autologous T-lymphocytes with anti-tumor activity targeting tumor-associated antigens is a rapidly evolving area of research. One approach involves the use of peripheral blood as a source of lymphocytes that are then used in the generation of cytotoxic tumor-specific T cells via introducing a tumor-specific TCR gene into T lymphocytes. NY-ESO-1 is a cancer testis antigen expressed in numerous cancers yet absent in most adult normal tissues apart from high expression in adult testes – thereby making it an ideal target for immunotherapy.

Trial design

TB1-1301 is a gene-modified T cell product that contains a NY-ESO-1 specific TCR introduced with the MS3II-NY-ESO1-SiTCR retroviral vector. This vector encodes for TCR α and β chains that recognize an NY-ESO-1 derived epitope (amino acids 157-165: SLLMWITQC) that is presented in the context of HLA-A*02:01 and HLA-A*02:06 molecules. The vector also encodes for siRNA (small interfering RNA) that are homologous to the constant region sequence of the endogenous, but not transduced TCR α and β chain mRNAs – these siRNAs in turn increase expression of the transduced TCR. Pre-clinical murine studies demonstrated safety, persistence, and efficacy of transduced T cells. This study represents a Phase 1b study of TBI-1301 in patients with advanced solid tumors, which express NY-ESO-1 (synovial sarcoma, ovarian cancer, and melanoma). A pre-conditioning lymphodepletion regimen of cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m2 will be used on Day -3 and Day -2 prior to infusion of cell product. The objectives of this study include assessing the safety profile of TBI-1301, determining the RP2D dose, and evaluating the efficacy of TBI-1301 via RECIST v1.1.
