Abstract CT286: TILVANCE-301, a phase 3 study of lifileucel tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) cell therapy in combination with pembrolizumab vs pembrolizumab alone in treatment-naive unresectable or metastatic melanoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Introduction: Novel early-line therapies for advanced (unresectable or metastatic) melanoma are needed to improve the rate of deep and durable responses and increase the proportion of patients with long-term benefit. TILVANCE-301 will evaluate the efficacy and safety of lifileucel autologous TIL cell therapy plus pembrolizumab in patients with untreated advanced melanoma. Methods: TILVANCE-301 (NCT05727904) is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel group study that will randomize ~670 patients (1:1; Day 0) to Arm A: lifileucel plus pembrolizumab (Day 3: tumor tissue resection for TIL manufacturing; Day 5: pembrolizumab 200 mg; Day 26: pembrolizumab 400 mg; Day 28-29: cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg; Day 28-32: fludarabine 25 mg/m2; Day 33: lifileucel; Day 34-37: ≤6 doses of high-dose IL-2; Week 10: pembrolizumab 400 mg Q6W) or Arm B: pembrolizumab alone (same pembrolizumab dosing as Arm A). Patients in Arm B with confirmed progressive disease verified by blinded independent review committee (BIRC) have the option to receive lifileucel monotherapy as immediate next treatment and may continue pembrolizumab until start of nonmyeloablative lymphodepletion. Eligible adults have histologically confirmed advanced melanoma, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-1, estimated life expectancy >6 months, ≥1 resectable lesion to generate lifileucel, and ≥1 remaining measurable lesion. Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment including immune checkpoint inhibitors may be allowed. Prior therapy for metastatic disease, symptomatic untreated brain metastases, organ allograft or prior cell therapy, uveal/ocular melanoma, and chronic systemic steroid therapy are not permitted. The dual primary efficacy endpoints are BIRC-assessed (RECIST v1.1) objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS). Key secondary efficacy endpoint is overall survival. Additional secondary efficacy endpoints include BIRC-assessed complete response (CR) rate, duration of response (DOR), and event-free survival (EFS); investigator-assessed ORR, PFS, CR rate, DOR, EFS, and PFS2; and safety as characterized by severity and seriousness of treatment-emergent adverse events and relationship to study drug. Exploratory endpoints include in vivo T-cell persistence (unique CDR3 sequences in peripheral blood mononuclear cell [PBMC] over time) and correlative biomarkers (eg, lifileucel phenotypic and functional characteristics; lifileucel, tumor, and PBMC gene expression profiles; tumor mutational landscape). The study will enroll globally, with initial sites in Europe, North America, and Australia.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
