IMPROVED PROCESS FOR CULTURING TUMOR-INFILTRATING LYMPHOCYTES FOR THERAPEUTIC USE

The present invention is targeted towards reinvigorating exhausted Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) in vitro by co-culturing excised TIL containing tumor fragments with checkpoint inhibitors, stimulating the TILs with other interleukins known to revert T cell exhaustion), and/or inhibiting the effect of regulatory T cells secreted factors (such as IL-10) thereby creating a favorable tumor microenvironment (TME) where exhausted T-cells can expand faster and to higher numbers than currently established TIL expansion protocols.
