Brief Summary: Metastatic melanoma is an aggressive and highly malignant cancer The five-year survival rate of patients with metastatic disease is less than 5 with a median survival of only 6-10 months Drugs like Dacarbazin DTIC as a single agent or in combination with other chemotherapy agents have a response rate of 15-30 but the duration of response is usually short with no impact on survival Interleukin-2 IL-2 based immunotherapy has shown more promising results This form of therapy has a similar response rate with some patients achieving a durable complete response Recently the National Institute of Health NIH reported that by using lympho-depleting chemotherapy followed by an adoptive transfer of large numbers of anti-tumor specific tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes TIL an objective regression was achieved in 51 of patients with metastatic melanoma

Objectives To introduce the TIL technology to advanced metastatic melanoma patients in Israel
