consent
2. Ability to provide and understand written informed consent prior to any
study procedures
3. Histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic UM
4. Must meet the following criteria related to prior treatment:
• No prior systemic therapy in the metastatic or advanced setting
including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy
• No prior local, liver-directed therapy including chemotherapy,
radiotherapy, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), or embolization
• Prior surgical resection of oligometastatic liver disease is allowed
• Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy is allowed provided
administered in the curative setting in patients with localized
disease. Patients may not be re-treated with an Investigator’s
Choice therapy that was administered as adjuvant or neoadjuvant
treatment
5. HLA-A*0201 positive by central assay
6. Life expectancy of > 3 months as estimated by the investigator
7. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0
or 1 at Screening
8. Patients must have measurable disease according to RECIST v.1.1
criteria
9. All other relevant medical conditions must be well-managed and stable,
in the opinion of the investigator, for at least 28 days prior to first
administration of study drug
Exclusiecriteria:
1. Patient with any out-of-range laboratory values defined as:
• Serum creatinine > 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) and/or
creatinine clearance (calculated using Cockcroft-Gault formula,
or measured) < 50 mL/minute
• Total bilirubin > 1.5 × ULN, except for patients with Gilbert’s
syndrome who are excluded if total bilirubin > 3.0 × ULN or direct
bilirubin > 1.5 × ULN
• Alanine aminotransferase > 3 × ULN
• Aspartate aminotransferase > 3 × ULN
• Absolute neutrophil count < 1.0 × 109/L
• Absolute lymphocyte count < 0.5 × 109/L
• Platelet count < 75 × 109/L
• Hemoglobin < 8 g/dL
• Potassium, magnesium, corrected calcium or phosphate
abnormality of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology
Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) grade > 1
2. History of severe hypersensitivity reactions (eg, anaphylaxis) to other
biologic drugs or monoclonal antibodies
3. Clinically significant cardiac disease or impaired cardiac function,
including any of the following:
• Clinically significant and/or uncontrolled heart disease such as
congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association grade ≥ 2),
uncontrolled hypertension or clinically significant arrhythmia
currently requiring medical treatment
• QTcF > 470 msec on screening electrocardiogram (ECG) or
congenital long QT syndrome
• Acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris < 6
months prior to Screening
4. Presence of symptomatic or untreated central nervous system (CNS)
metastases, or CNS metastases that require doses of corticosteroids
within the prior 3 weeks to study Day 1. Patients with brain metastases
are eligible if lesions have been treated with localized therapy and there
is no evidence of progression for at least 4 weeks by magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) prior to the first dose of study drug
5. Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy. Patients requiring
systemic antibiotics for infection must have completed therapy at least
1 week prior to the first dose of study drug
6. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV).
Testing for HIV status is not necessary unless clinically indicated
7. Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection per
institutional protocol. Testing for HBV or HCV status is not necessary
unless clinically indicated or the patient has a history of HBV or HCV
infection
8. Malignant disease, other than that being treated in this study.
Exceptions to this exclusion include the following: malignancies that
were treated curatively and have not recurred within 2 years prior to
study treatment; completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin
cancers; any malignancy considered to be indolent and that has never
required therapy; and completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type
9. Any medical condition that would, in the investigator’s or Sponsor’s
judgment, prevent the patient’s participation in the clinical study due to
safety concerns, compliance with clinical study procedures or
interpretation of study results
10. Patients receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other systemic
immunosuppressive medication at any dose level, as these may
interfere with the mechanism of action of study treatment. Local steroid
therapies (eg, otic, ophthalmic, intra-articular or inhaled medications)
are acceptable
11. History of adrenal insufficiency
12. History of interstitial lung disease
13. History of pneumonitis that required corticosteroid treatment or
current pneumonitis
14. History of colitis or inflammatory bowel disease
15. Major surgery within 2 weeks of the first dose of study drug (minimally
invasive procedures such as bronchoscopy, tumor biopsy, insertion of a
central venous access device, and insertion of a feeding tube are not
considered major surgery and are not exclusionary)
16. Radiotherapy within 2 weeks of the first dose of study drug, with the
exception of palliative radiotherapy to a limited field, such as for the
treatment of bone pain or a focally painful tumor mass
17. Use of hematopoietic colony-stimulating growth factors (eg, G-CSF,
GMCSF, M-CSF) ≤ 2 weeks prior to start of study drug. An erythroid
stimulating agent is allowed as long as it was initiated at least 2 weeks
prior to the first dose of study treatment and the patient is not red blood
cell transfusion dependent
18. Pregnant, likely to become pregnant, or lactating women (where
pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until
the termination of gestation)
19. Women of child-bearing potential who are sexually active with a nonsterilized
male partner, defined as all women physiologically capable of
becoming pregnant, unless they are using highly effective contraception
during study treatment (defined in Section 6.7), and must agree to
continue using such precautions for 6 months after the final dose of
investigational product; cessation of birth control after this point should
be discussed with a responsible physician. Highly effective methods of
contraception are described in Section 6.7
20. Male patients must be surgically sterile or use double barrier
contraception methods from enrollment through treatment and for 6
months following administration of the last dose of study drug
