Excerpt from the Press Release:

SAN CARLOS, Calif., May 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: IOVA), a late-stage biotechnology company developing novel T cell-based cancer immunotherapies (tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte, TIL, and peripheral-blood lymphocyte, PBL), today announced that the Journal of Clinical Oncology has published a manuscript of clinical data for Cohort 2 in the C-144-01 study of lifileucel TIL therapy in metastatic melanoma. Online open access to the publication is available at https://ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.1200/JCO.21.00612.

Amod Sarnaik, Associate Professor of Cutaneous Oncology and Immunology at H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center stated, “Effective treatment options are limited for patients with advanced melanoma who progress after immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies. Lifileucel represents a significant improvement in the treatment of advanced melanoma, particularly in the expanding post-immune checkpoint inhibitor patient population. The results from the C-144-01 clinical study, as well as the advancement of lifileucel using a centralized TIL manufacturing process, offer a new opportunity for accessible treatment for the most challenging to treat patients with metastatic melanoma.”
