Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To study the efficacy of this treatment strategy in inducing tumor-specific T cell immunity as measured by the presence of Mart-1 specific T cells in peripheral blood samples on several time points following adoptive transfer.;Secondary Objective: To study the safety of the adoptive transfer of autologous T cells modified with a Mart-1 specific TCR in advanced stage melanoma patients with disease progression upon standard chemotherapy. To study the objective response rate in this patient population. To study the disease-free survival and overall survival. ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of this trial is objective reponse rate according to recist 1.1;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After 25 patients have received the treatment response rate will be evaluated.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Safety (CTC 4.0) of the TCR treatment. 1-year PFS and median overall survival. Efficacy of induction of tumor specific T cell responses (as measured by the persistence of Mart1 specific T cells in peripheral blood samples at several time points following adoptive transfer and in tumor biopsies when possible). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Safety will be evaluated after 5 patients have been treated, and also at first and the second stage of the study. PFS and efficacy will be evaluated 1 years after the last patient has been treated.
