About this trial

Objective:

To collect information on how often a solid tumor cancer might lose the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) by next generation sequencing and perform apheresis to collect and store an eligible participant's own T cells for future use to make CAR T-Cell therapy for their disease treatment.

Design:

This is a non-interventional, observational study to evaluate participants with solid tumors with a high risk of relapse for incurable disease. No interventional therapy will be administered on this study. Some of the information regarding the participant's tumor analysis may be beneficial to management of their disease. Participants that meet all criteria may be enrolled and leukapheresed (blood cells collected). The participant's cells will be processed and stored for potential manufacture of CAR T-cell therapy upon relapse of their cancer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

None

Disqualifiers

History of any of other malignancy in the past 5 years other than non-melanoma skin carcinoma, low grade localized prostate cancer, superficial bladder cancer, ductal carcinoma in situ (CIS) of the breast, CIS of the Cervix, or Stage I uterine cancer.

Prior allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Prior solid organ transplant.

Pathologically confirmed solid tumors, e.g., Colorectal Cancer (CRC), Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), Pancreatic Cancer (PANC), Mesothelioma, or Ovarian Cancer (OVAC) that is metastatic, unresectable locally advanced, or in the Investigator's opinion the subject is high risk for incurable relapse within two years.

Trial population

Participants with Colorectal Cancer (CRC), Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), Pancreatic Cancer (PANC), mesothelioma, or Ovarian Cancer (OVAC) that is metastatic, unresectable locally advanced, or in the Investigator's opinion the subject is high risk for incurable relapse within two years, germline HLA-A\*02 heterozygous, and have confirmed somatic LOH.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Apheresis

    Other intervention

    Apheresis procedure performed for collection of PBMCs.

  • Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)
