Full Title
A PHASE 1/2 SINGLE ARM OPEN-LABEL CLINICAL TRIAL OF GAVOCABTAGENE AUTOLEUCEL (GAVO-CEL) IN PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED MESOTHELIN-EXPRESSING CANCERPurpose
This purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug TC-210 that can be given safely in patients with metastatic lung cancer, mesothelioma, ovarian cancer, or cholangiocarcinoma (a bile duct cancer) that makes a protein called mesothelin. TC-210 targets and kills cancer cells that have mesothelin on their surfaces.
TC-210 is a form of gene therapy. It is made of T cells that are removed from a patient, genetically modified in the laboratory to enable them to attack and kill cancer cells, and then returned to that patient. Patients may also receive the chemotherapy drugs fludarabine and cyclophosphamide to prepare them to receive TC-210 treatment. All medications used in this study are given intravenously (by vein).
