Phase II Study of CD62L+-Derived T Lymphocytes Transduced With a T Cell Receptor Recognizing the NY-ESO-1 Antigen and Aldesleukin Following Lymphodepletion in Patients With NY-ESO-1 Expressing Melanoma
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Anti-NY ESO-1 T cell receptor (TCR) cluster of differentiation 62L (CD62L)+ cells, Aldesleukin, and 2 other interventions for Metastatic Cancer and Metastatic Melanoma. Terminated early, enrolled 2 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary
Background: The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Surgery Branch has developed an experimental therapy for treating patients with melanoma that involves taking white blood cells from the patient, growing them in the laboratory in large numbers, genetically modifying them, and then giving the cells back to the patient. In a previous study, the NCI Surgery Branch used the anti-ESO-1 gene and a type of virus (retrovirus) to make these tumor-fighting cells (anti-ESO-1 cells). About half of the patients who received this treatment experienced shrinking of their tumors. In this study, we are using a slightly different method of producing the anti-ESO-1 cells selected for a specific cell type, which we hope, will be better in making the tumors shrink. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to see if these tumor fighting cells (genetically modified cells) that express the receptor for the ESO-1 molecule on their surface can cause melanoma tumors to shrink and to see if this treatment is safe. Eligibility: -Adults 18 and older with cancer that has the ESO-1 molecule on tumor surfaces Design: * Work up stage: Patients will be seen as an outpatient at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) clinical Center and undergo a history and physical examination, scans, x-rays, lab tests, and other tests as needed * Leukapheresis: If the patients meet all of the requirements for the study they will undergo leukapheresis to obtain white blood cells to make the anti ESO-1 cells. {Leukapheresis is a common procedure, which removes only the white blood cells from the patient.} * Treatment: Once their cells have grown, the patients will be admitted to the hospital for the conditioning chemotherapy, the anti-ESO 1 cells and aldesleukin. They will stay in the hospital for about 4 weeks for the treatment. Follow up: Patients will return to the clinic for a physical exam, review of side effects, lab tests, and scans about every 1-3 months for the first year, and then every 6 months to 1 year as long as their tumors are shrinking. Follow up visits take up to 2 days.

Interventions
Patients will receive non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide and fludarabine followed by the administration of anti-NY ESO-1 T cell receptor (TCR) CD62L+ cells and high dose aldesleukin. On day 0, cells (1x10e9 to 2x10e11) will be infused intravenously on the Patient Care Unit over 20-30 minutes.
Aldesleukin 720,000 IU/kg intravenous (IV) (based on total body weight) over 15 minutes approximately every eight hours (+/- 1 hour) beginning within 24 hours of cell infusion and continuing for up to 5 days (maximum of 15 doses).
On days -7 and -6: Cyclophosphamide 60 mg/kg/day X 2 days intravenous (IV) in 250 ml dextrose 5% in water (D5W) with Mesna 15 mg/kg/day X 2 days over 1 hr.
On days -5 to -1: Fludarabine 25 mg/m(2)/day intravenous piggyback (IVPB) daily over 30 minutes for 5 days.
