About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Multicenter Study of Autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL or LN-145) in Patients With Metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

This is a prospective, open-label, multi-cohort, non-randomized, multicenter phase 2 study evaluating LN-145 in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer

Read the detailed description

LN-145 is a ready-to-infuse TIL therapy that utilizes an autologous TIL manufacturing process, as originally developed by the NCI and further optimized by Iovance for the treatment of patients with metastatic NSCLC. The cell transfer therapy used in this study involves patients receiving a non-myeloablative (NMA) lymphodepleting preparative regimen, followed by infusion of autologous TIL, then finally followed by the administration of IL-2.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • LN-145Biological

    Also called TIL, Autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes

    A tumor sample is resected from each patient and cultured ex vivo to expand the population of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. After lymphodepleting chemotherapy including cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, patient is infused with autologous TIL (LN-145), followed by IL-2.

  • LN-145Biological

    Also called TIL, Autologous Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes

    A tumor sample is obtained by image-guided core biopsy from each patient and cultured ex vivo to expand the population of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. After lymphodepleting chemotherapy including cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, patient is infused with autologous TIL (LN-145) followed by IL-2.

Study groups in NCT04614103
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cohort 1ExperimentalPatients whose tumors did not express programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), i.e., tumor proportion score (TPS) < 1% prior to ICI treatment and Patients with no available historical TPS for PD-L1 expression
Receives: Biological: LN-145
Cohort 2ExperimentalPatients whose tumors expressed PD-L1 TPS ≥1% prior to ICI treatment
Receives: Biological: LN-145
Cohort 3ExperimentalPatients, regardless of tumor PD-L1 TPS prior to ICI treatment, who are unable to safely undergo a surgical tumor resection for TIL generation
Receives: Biological: LN-145
Cohort 4ExperimentalPatients, regardless of tumor PD-L1 expression status prior to ICI treatment, who have meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria except the requirement to have documented disease progression may elect to have the tumor harvest procedure and TIL production prior to disease progression on their current anticancer treatment. Documentation of progressive disease and identification of a target lesion for RECIST v1.1 assessment is required at Baseline for these patients.
Receives: Biological: LN-145
Retreatment CohortExperimentalPatients who were previously treated with LN-145 in Cohort 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Receives: Biological: LN-145

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective Response Rate

    To evaluate the efficacy of LN-145 as determined by objective response rate (ORR) in patients with metastatic NSCLC using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1), as assessed by central review for Cohorts 1 and 2 and by the investigator for Cohorts 3, 4 and the Retreatment Cohort

    Measured: Up to 60 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Objective Response Rate

    To evaluate the efficacy of LN-145 as determined by objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1, as assessed by the Investigator for Cohorts 1 and 2

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  2. Complete Response Rate

    To evaluate efficacy parameters such as Complete Response Rate (CRR) per RECIST v1.1

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  3. Duration of Response

    To evaluate efficacy parameters such as Duration of Response (DOR) rate per RECIST v1.1

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  4. Disease Control Rate

    To evaluate efficacy parameters such as Disease Control Rate (DCR) per RECIST v1.1

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  5. Progression-Free Survival

    To evaluate efficacy parameters such as Progression-Free Survival (PFS) per RECIST v1.1

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  6. Overall Survival

    To evaluate efficacy parameters such as Overall Survival (OS)

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  7. Adverse Events

    To characterize the safety profile of LN-145 in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  8. Core Biopsies

    To determine the feasibility of generating LN-145 using tumor tissue obtained via image-guided core biopsy

    Measured: Up to 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LN-145 in people with Metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. at 71 sites in 12 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 71 sites in United States, Spain, France, United Kingdom, Germany and 7 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Iovance Biotherapeutics Study Team lungcelltherapy.com (1-844-845-4682, Clinical.Inquiries@iovance.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (time frame: Up to 60 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jun 2026.
