People attend the ASCO Annual Meeting every year and these increasing numbers show that more people have come together to meet each other, take in new information, and grow more within their skills and fields.  Guests’ roles ranged from oncologists, pharmacists, biologists, researchers, and more.

Median DOR not yet reached. Median OS 13.9 mo. 12 mo OS was 54%. As typical with immunotherapy, we see a nice tail on the curve. #TIL#SITC22

Important work on efficacy of TIL therapy lifileucel in PD-1 resistant #melanoma being presented at #SITC22. Pretty good durability for this heavy lift of a treatment.

Toxicity profile was in line with prior TIL/Lifileucel data. No surprises here. Median # doses of IL-2 was 6.

Absolutely agree!… this should be available to our melanoma patients ASAP!… and paves the way for smarter cellular therapies to be designed, studied, and eventually widely disseminated

Where does this leave us with #TIL therapy for #melanoma? IMO, this response rate/durability justifies accelerated approval. Pts with PD-1 refractory melanoma need options. It’s FAR from a perfect tx but provides meaningful clinical benefit. What say you melanoma Twitterverse?
