Abstract Treatment of metastatic melanoma with autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes
(TILs) is currently applied in several centers. Robust and remarkably consistent overall
response rates, of around 50% of treated patients, have been observed across hospitals,
including a substantial fraction of durable, complete responses. Purpose Execute a phase I/II
feasibility study with TIL therapy in metastatic melanoma at the Netherlands Cancer Institute,
with the goal to assess feasibility and potential value of a randomized phase III trial.
