Title: Phase I/II Study of Metastatic Cancer Using Lymphodepleting Conditioning Followed by Infusion of Anti-mesothelin Gene Engineered Lymphocytes1
Principal Investigator: Steven A Rosenberg, MD, National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Description: For this open-label, single-group assignment phase 1/2 study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01583686), researchers are evaluating whether chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell immunotherapy that targets mesothelin is safe and effective among patients with metastatic, mesothelin-expressing tumors.

Patients with mesothelioma or cervical, pancreatic, ovarian, or lung cancer will be enrolled to receive fludarabine, anti-mesothelin CAR-T cell therapy, cyclophosphamide, and aldesleukin. All patients will undergo leukapheresis prior to therapy; white blood cells will modified to target mesothelin.
The primary outcomes are safety and anti-tumor efficacy. The estimated number of enrolled patients is 136.
