Surgical oncologists play a very important role in tumor sample procurement 1 2 3 4 5 6 PATIENT TUMOR SAMPLE NMA-LD LIFILEUCEL IL-2 RECOVERY/ INTAKE PROCUREMENT INFUSION INFUSIONS DISCHARGE IL-2, interleukin-2; NMA-LD, nonmyeloablative lymphodepletion; TIL, tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte.
Slide 4: Tumor quality is crucial for successful TIL manufacturing and efficacy
Tumor quality is crucial for successful TIL manufacturing and efficacy Case 1: Melanoma Patient, Progressive Disease Case 2: Melanoma Patient, Partial Response • Low T-cell infiltration • Good T-cell infiltration – 4.17 g tumor digested – 1.68 g tumor digested – Minimal number of T cells retained –
