Study Summary

This trial is for patients with ovarian cancer who haven't responded to platinum-based chemotherapy. They'll first receive cyclophosphamide, then an infusion of autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). TILs are a type of white blood cell that recognizes tumor cells and enter them which causes the tumor cells to break down. After infusion of TILs, low-dose interleukin-2 (IL-2) therapy will be given.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with platinum-resistant high grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Candidates must have a life expectancy of more than 3 months and be able to produce suitable TILs. They should not have HIV, active hepatitis B/C, syphilis, HTLV, or brain metastases unless treated. Women must use effective birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of re-stimulated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) combined with interleukin-2 (IL-2), cyclophosphamide and other agents in patients who haven't responded well to platinum-based chemotherapy. It's an early-phase trial to see how safe and effective this combination therapy is.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions from the immune system such as inflammation in various organs due to TILs and IL-2 therapy; nausea and hair loss from cyclophosphamide; fatigue; increased risk of infections; blood disorders; allergic reactions.
