Study aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of the lifileucel regimen in combination with pembrolizumab compared to pembrolizumab monotherapy in participants with untreated advanced melanoma
Résumé de l'étude
The main objective of the study is to determine whether the lifileucel + pembrolizumab treatment is more effective than pembrolizumab alone in reducing the size of a patient's tumor and possibly eliminating it completely. The investigator physician will also examine the patient's lifespan until the tumor develops and their lifespan after treatment. Another objective of the study is to determine whether the study drugs are safe. Approximately 670 patients distributed across approximately 100 centers worldwide will participate in the study. All patients will be assigned to one of the 2 treatment arms: Arm A (lifileucel + pembrolizumab) or Arm B (pembrolizumab alone). All patients will have a 1 in 2 chance of being part of one of these arms. The study will consist of 3 periods: selection period, during which the investigator physician will check if each patient meets the criteria to participate in the study, treatment and evaluation period, and follow-up period, during which the investigator physician will continue to monitor the health and evaluate the ongoing care of each patient for their tumor, through phone calls until the end of the study. The duration of the study will vary for each patient. Only those in Arm A will undergo a surgical intervention to remove a piece of tumor, used to manufacture lifileucel. Patients in Arm B may have the opportunity to receive the regimen with lifileucel if their melanoma worsens or recurs while they are taking pembrolizumab. This is the optional arm switch from Arm B. Various medical procedures will be performed: imaging examinations, ECG, pulmonary function tests, tumor sample collections, and frequent blood and urine samples. Patients will complete questionnaires on quality of life and report observed changes in health status to the investigator physician/study staff.

Intervention étudiée
Lifileucel plus pembrolizumab regimen. Lifileucel is a new type of immunotherapy that uses the body's immune system to destroy cancer cells. Lifileucel is also referred to as treatment with "tumor infiltrating lymphocytes" (TIL). It consists of a type of white blood cells called T-lymphocytes or T-cells, which are taken from a piece of the patient's tumor and transformed into millions of cells in the laboratory. These T-cells are effective at detecting and attacking the patient's tumor. Pembrolizumab is a commercially available immunotherapy drug that works by binding to a specific protein on T-cells. This allows T-cells to find hidden cancer cells and destroy them. Researchers believe that lifileucel combined with pembrolizumab may help treat advanced melanoma that has never been treated before. The term "study drug(s)" refers to the regimen with lifileucel and/or pembrolizumab.

Maladie en cours d'investigation
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer. It begins in the cells that give skin its color (called melanocytes). Unresectable melanoma is a skin cancer that cannot be cured by surgical operation. Metastatic melanoma is a skin cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Melanoma can develop anywhere on the body where the cells that give skin its color become cancerous. In this summary, the term "advanced melanoma" refers to unresectable or metastatic melanoma.
(BASEC)
Patients may participate in the study if they: • are between 18 and 70 years old; • have melanoma at a specific stage; • have at least one melanoma tumor that can be partially removed by surgical operation; • have at least one melanoma tumor that can be measured during the study; • have sufficiently good kidney, liver, heart, and lung function. (BASEC)
Critères d'exclusion
Patients cannot participate in the study if they: • have ocular melanoma; • have an untreated tumor that has spread to the brain; • have received more than one therapy to treat their advanced melanoma; • are not mentally fit, in the opinion of the investigator physician; • have tested positive for infections such as AIDS or have undergone an organ transplant.
