TIL

Only 1 percent of colon cancer patients is eligible for TIL. Info received from an MD Anderson TIL expert.

What 1%? Did you receive information on specific requirements (mutations, etc)? TIL is something I’m keeping in the back of my mind in case we need to look beyond the usual approaches.

It was my plan B. MD Anderson showed me a report where they screened about 2400 colon cancer patients and only about 28 or so were qualified. First, need to have HLA in a blood, second a very specific rear mutation.

TIL Trial NCT01174121 at NIH/NCI is NOT mutation or HLA Specific... The team searches for TILs that you already have in your tumor and that are “reactive” to your tumor mutations – So it doesn’t matter what mutations or HLA you have. Just that you have reactive TILs that they can grow by the billions. Remember, Clinical trial is a "Trial" the goal is to discover and see what can work and discover new mutations that may work against solid tumors .

The trial that Anderson is doing is specific to one HLA/mutation combination, but that does not mean it is the only combination that can benefit; it is just the only one they are working on. As sdino said, NIH is working with whatever the patient has. If your body has TIL that are reactive to the driver mutations in your cancer, then they may be able to clone them to wipe your cancer out.
Sleen is now four years cancer free from the infamous "undruggable" mutation. No human had ever been cured of KRas G12D driven metastatic cancer before her, and a doctor told her she had a 2% chance of even getting into the trial. That "expert" was wrong.
It doesn't work for everyone, and we know many patients who have tried it and didn't survive. But if you want a chance to wipe out all of the cancer cells, TIL could work for some people

MIXED BAG RESULTS Update 3/2/2020 Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) Clinical Immunology Trial at NIH NCT01174121 :

24 week follow-up - 2 Liver lesions are Gone. Brain Met (3 mm) left side is gone. Targeted lung mets have shrunk by 36%. According to Cancer RECIST 1.1 this is considered by NIH as an “Unofficial” Partial Response (PR). **With a caveat** A New 7.8 mm right side brain lesion has appeared in the last 6 weeks.

The Old Battle-Axe Grandma Lung Tumor has FINALLY showed shrinkage for the 1st time ever. Kim’s Team is very-very excited that the TIL cells are currently seeking and destroying the lung mets. Partial Response in Stage IV cancer is a huge deal.

We met with our Immuno Team, the Radiologic Oncologist and a Brain Neurosurgeon to discuss the numerous possible remedies. The Plan moving forward was discussed in great length with everything taken into consideration. We are All in agreement (along with Kim), that we will take a very aggressive approach on this new brain lesion and have it removed completely by brain surgery. Surgery will be 3 to 4 hours in length with a week stay at NIH and a several week recovery at home. Surgery will be scheduled next Friday 3/13/20 at NIH.

Also as DH2Sleen says, NIH is TIL trial is mutational driven with no specific mutations except they need to be reactive to your tumor.

So, not to interrupt this topic but just having a bit of a panic attack here. Do you mean no one with stage IV KRASG12D has ever been able to beat it long term even if surgery got them to NED? I know my risk of recurrence is high but NO ONE???

I don’t want to put words in DH2Sleen’s mouth, but I believe “undruggable” generally refers to the fact that we do not have a targeted therapy specifically for this mutation. I personally know one G12D patient who is currently NED; she has had recurrences in the past but her last chemo was in 2016. Another was diagnosed over 10 years ago and has been NED several times since then (the longest lasting 5 years).

Thank you Rob. I get myself worked up quite easily at times and then spiral into pouring through studies that just keep telling me the same thing=poor prognosis. It’s just so disheartening and I then bring myself back reading success stories but never see them with KRASG12D people which upsets me even more. Vicious cycle :roll:

I understand - I go through the exact same process. I also go back and forth on the details of my diagnosis trying to work out of my prognosis is good or not, for example...

Stage 4 = bad. Resectable = good. NRAS = bad. G13R = good? Oligometastatic = good. EMVI = bad. Complete metabolic response = good. LVI = bad. Mod diff = good. Tricky margins = bad. Good chemo response = good. 1/27 lymph nodes = good. ECOG 0 = good.

Net result? No idea!! So I’ve given up trying to work it out
:)

At least it does remind me that there aren’t only negative factors though.

Ok. I received this info from an MD Anderson doc who supervises their TIL trail. I asked specifically if there are any other places in the US that do this trail without HLA or that specific mutation and the answer was No. Now, I looked on this trail and my understanding that 2 groups are closed. Not sure what it means. No desirable results or the group was full. Do we know about other TILs that do not require HLA. If so, the numbers will help.

Both these Trials are at National Institute of Health in Bethesda, MD. They do not care what type of HLA you have or Mutations as long as your cells react. You must be MSS.
My Wife failed the NCT03412877 trial.
Then they did the TIL trial NCT01174121 on her with good response so far.
