Abstract
Lifileucel (AMTAGVI™), a one-time autologous T cell therapy derived and expanded from tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) from a patient's own tumour, is being developed by Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. for the treatment of cancer. Lifileucel was granted accelerated approval based on objective response rate (ORR) in February 2024 in the USA for use in adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma previously treated with a PD-1 blocking antibody, and if BRAF V600 mutation positive, a BRAF inhibitor with or without a MEK inhibitor. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of lifileucel leading to this first approval for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma who have progressed on or after prior anti-PD-1/L1 therapy and targeted therapy.
