Summary

This trial aims to find out if E7 TCR-T cell treatment can shrink or eliminate HPV-associated cancers to facilitate definitive therapy & increase survival.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with advanced HPV-related cancers (like cervical, anal, and oropharyngeal cancer) that have the HPV16 genotype. They must be in good health with proper organ function and not HIV or hepatitis positive. Women of childbearing age should use contraception and cannot be pregnant.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing E7 TCR-T cells as a pre-treatment to shrink tumors before main treatment like surgery or chemoradiation. It involves taking patients' T cells, modifying them to fight cancer, then giving them back along with aldesleukin to boost the immune system.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to immune response such as fever, fatigue, inflammation around various organs; complications from cell infusion; and effects from aldesleukin like chills and nausea.
