Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with Stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without certain genetic mutations. Participants must have had disease progression after first-line therapy, be in good physical condition (ECOG status of 0 or 1), and have at least one tumor that can be surgically removed for treatment development. They should not have more than two prior lines of therapy and must agree to use effective birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing LN-145, a new potential treatment developed from the patient's own immune cells. It's an open-label phase 2 trial, meaning both researchers and participants know what treatment is being given, focusing on those with metastatic NSCLC who meet specific criteria.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, treatments like LN-145 may cause immune-related reactions due to enhanced activity of the body’s own cells. This could potentially lead to inflammation in various organs, fatigue, fever-like symptoms, or allergic reactions.

Trial Design

5Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Retreatment CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients who were previously treated with LN-145 in Cohort 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Group II: Cohort 4Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients, regardless of tumor PD-L1 expression status prior to ICI treatment, who have meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria except the requirement to have documented disease progression may elect to have the tumor harvest procedure and TIL production prior to disease progression on their current anticancer treatment. Documentation of progressive disease and identification of a target lesion for RECIST v1.1 assessment is required at Baseline for these patients.
Group III: Cohort 3Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients, regardless of tumor PD-L1 TPS prior to ICI treatment, who are unable to safely undergo a surgical tumor resection for TIL generation
Group IV: Cohort 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients whose tumors expressed PD-L1 TPS ≥1% prior to ICI treatment
Group V: Cohort 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients whose tumors did not express programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), i.e., tumor proportion score (TPS) < 1% prior to ICI treatment and Patients with no available historical TPS for PD-L1 expression

Can I potentially be part of this medical study?

"This ongoing clinical trial is seeking 95 volunteers aged between 18 and 70, who have been diagnosed with metastatic Stage IV NSCLC. Patients must meet further criteria, including having an LVEF above 45%, being NYHA Class 1 or lower, demonstrating adequate pulmonary function, potentially undergoing TIL therapy after disease progression (if applicable), and having at least one resectable lesion for production of TILs. Furthermore, those over the age of 70 may still be eligible if cleared by a Medical Monitor."

Does this research trial cater to individuals of advanced age?

"According to the criteria listed, those participating in this trial must be 18 years of age or older and under 70."

Answered by AI

How many healthcare establishments are currently implementing this trial?

"This ground-breaking trial is accepting patients from Seattle Cancer Care Alliance in Seattle, Washington, University of Oklahoma in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and Rush University Medical Center in Chicago Illinois. Additionally, 40 other sites are participating."

Answered by AI

What safety measures should be taken with regards to LN-145?

"Considering the Phase 2 status of LN-145, our team at Power assigned it a safety ranking of two as there is evidence to suggest that this medication has some level of protection against adverse effects but no data proving its efficacy."

Answered by AI
