Study Summary

This phase I/II trial tests the safety and side effects of LN-144 (Lifileucel) and pembrolizumab in treating patients with stage IIIB-D or stage IV melanoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Biological therapies, such as LN-144 (Lifileucel), use substances made from living organisms that may attack specific tumor cells and stop them from growing or kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lifileucel and pembrolizumab may make the tumor smaller.

Primary Outcome

Success rate of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) expansion from all screened eligible patients who have had tumor-involved lymph node(s) removed; percentage of all eligible patients who have completed the screening and treated with LN-144/lifileucel.
