ESSO 43 | Early clinical results from cellular therapies for melanoma

Andrew Furness, MD, PhD, Royal Marsden Hospital, London, UK, discusses the early results of off-the-shelf T-cell therapy for refractory melanoma, highlighting a response rate of around 30% and the potential for durable disease control among responders. He notes promising data from randomized studies, including one showing a 65% response rate when combining T-cell therapy with pembrolizumab in treatment-naive patients. While these findings are preliminary and based on small sample sizes, they indicate a significant step forward in managing melanoma. This interview took place at the ESSO 43 congress in Antwerp, Belgium.
