Summary

Primary Objective:

This is a study to investigate the feasibility of harvesting, expanding, and selecting T lymphocytes from cancer patients and healthy volunteers. The preliminary objective of this study is aimed at selecting PD-1+ and CTLA4+ T cells and other cellular fractions from peripheral blood of cancer patients and healthy volunteers by using specific conjugated antibodies, evaluating their functional ex vivo anti-tumor cytotoxicity against targeted autologous tumor cells.

Inclusion Criteria

Cancer Cohort Inclusion Criteria
Male or Female Adult ≥ 18 years of age
Histological diagnosis of any solid tumor type and at any stage of disease progression including in the neoadjuvant/presurgical setting, adjuvant setting, or considered in remission
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 to 3 (see Appendix
and an estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months
Subject or subject's legal representative provides written informed consent
Negative serology screening test for HIV, Hepatitis B surface antigen, and Hepatitis C antibody, or negative reflex PCR test result for HIV, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)
Additional eligibility criteria need to be met for leukapheresis collection
ECOG Performance Status of 0 or 1 (see Appendix 2)
WBC ≥2000/μL
Neutrophils ≥1000/μL
Platelets ≥100x103/μL
Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL
Creatinine ≤2.5 x ULN
AST ≤2.5 x ULN without, and ≤ 5 x ULN with hepatic metastases
Bilirubin ≤2 x ULN (except patients with Gilbert's syndrome, who must have total bilirubin ≤ 3.0 mg/dL)
Negative urine pregnancy test for women of childbearing potential
Healthy Volunteer Cohort Inclusion Criteria
Male or Female Adult ≥ 18 years of age
▪ Pediatric healthy volunteers from 5-17 years of age, with suspected or
confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis by laboratory test will be eligible to
participate in minimally invasive biospecimen collection procedures, as long
as written parental consent has been obtained, and if applicable and
technologically able, child assent. Minimally invasive biospecimen collection
procedures allowed for pediatric participation include swabs (nasal, NP and
OP), microcapillary sampling, and saliva or urine collection
Healthy volunteers are eligible, including the following
History of autoimmune disease or inflammatory disorder considered clinically stable by the Principal Investigator or treating physician's discretion
Suspected or diagnosed COVID-19 disease by laboratory test, whether in the acute, sub-acute or convalesced state
Employees of the study site(s) or BioCytics, as long as fulfilment of inclusion criteria 3.c is obtained
Subject or subject's legal representative provides written informed consent
Negative serology screening test for HIV, Hepatitis B surface antigen, and Hepatitis C antibody, or negative reflex PCR test result for HIV, HBV, and HCV
Additional eligibility criteria need to be met for leukapheresis collection
Must be ≥ 18 years of age
WBC ≥2000/μL
Neutrophils ≥1000/μL
Platelets ≥100x103/μL
Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL
Creatinine ≤2.5 x ULN
AST ≤2.5 x ULN
Bilirubin ≤2 x ULN (except patients with Gilbert's syndrome, who must have total bilirubin ≤ 3.0 mg/dL)
Negative urine pregnancy test for women of childbearing potential

Exclusion Criteria

Subjects with active infection requiring therapy (fever, localizing source) will be excluded until the infection resolves
This excludes subjects with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 by laboratory test while in the acute and sub-acute phase of viremia
Underlying medical condition that, in the Principal Investigator's or treating
oncologist's opinion, will obscure the interpretation of the patient's safety
Confirmed positive reflex PCR test result for HIV, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)
