Iovance Biotherapeutics Announces Clinical Data for LN-145 in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer at Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting
21.4% Overall Response Rate (ORR) in Heavily Pre-Treated Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (mNSCLC)
Conference Call and Webcast on Saturday, November 13 at 5:30pm ET
Excerpt from the Press Release:
SAN CARLOS, Calif., and WASHINGTON, Nov. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: IOVA), a late-stage biotechnology company developing novel T cell-based cancer immunotherapies, today announced additional clinical data for its tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy LN-145 in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC) who enrolled in Cohort 3B of the ongoing basket study IOV-COM-202. The results are available in a poster at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting, November 12-14, 2021, Washington, D.C. and virtual.
The results demonstrate the feasibility of TIL cell therapy in heavily pre-treated patients with NSCLC, and warrant continued investigation of LN-145 as a single-agent and in combination in patients with mNSCLC in ongoing Iovance clinical studies IOV-LUN-202 and IOV-COM-202.
Adam J. Schoenfeld, M.D., medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and an investigator in the IOV-COM-202 and IOV-LUN-202 studies, stated, “The clinical data for LN-145 in heavily-treated patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer is exciting. It represents the first experience for TIL monotherapy to show clinical benefit in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and demonstrates the feasibility and safety shown in a multi-center study with a centralized manufacturing process. I am particularly impressed to see responses following multiple prior therapies, including tumors resistant to anti–PD-(L)1 blockade. We observed responses to LN-145 across a range of PD-L1 expression levels, clinical characteristics, and molecular features. I look forward to the ongoing IOV-LUN-202 clinical study in second-line non-small cell lung cancer, where there’s potential to see an increase in overall responses and durability among patients who are earlier in their disease and improve a treatment landscape dominated by chemotherapy.”
