🎥It was great to hear from Ben Creelan, MD (Moffitt Cancer Center) and @AllisonBetofWarner (Stanford Cancer Institute) who discussed updates in #TILs in solid tumors including promising T-cell targets in #LungCancer as well as optimizing TILs in #Melanoma Watch the full discussion soon on


Report Nature Cancer from Ben Creelan, MD et al describes resistance to #TIL (tumor infiltrating lymphocyte) therapy including loss of subclonal neoantigens targeted by TILs, loss of antigen-specific immune clones, and HLA LOH. nature.com/articles/s4301…

Just published in Nature Cancer: New #LungCancer study highlights challenges and opportunities for TIL therapy Ben Creelan, MD Stand Up To Cancer Moffitt Cancer Center moffitt.org/newsroom/news-…

Fantastic paper from Ben Creelan, MD lab showing subclonal neoantigen loss in tumours progressing on TIL therapy highlighting importance of targeting clonal neoantigens - watch this space for Darwin2 trial reported ESMO - Eur. Oncology by Crispin Hiley Nicholas McGranahan

Excited to help show biology of TIL cell therapy resistance in lung cancer in real world samples: >Missing neoantigens at progression >Failure of persistence of antigen-specific clones >HLA LOH Ben Creelan, MD Chao Wang Nature Cancer nature.com/articles/s4301…

Importance of targeting clonal neoantigens and circumventing dysfunctional states in TIL therapy! 10 years on Andrew Furness Nicholas McGranahan Charles Swanton Quezada Lab Sergio Quezada

What’s next for #NSCLC care? Join me, Heather Wakelee, @TinaCasconeMD & Dr. Julie Brahmer at PeerView/LUNGevity Foundation’s #ASCO25 symposium! 🚩Hyatt Regency Chicago 🕣May 30 | 6:30 PM CDT – Dinner 7–8:30 PM CDT / 8 –9:30 PM EDT – Symposium 🔗bit.ly/2025NSCLCT #OncologyEducation




🚶♂️ Heading to PeerView’s #NSCLC and #CRC sessions today at 6:30 PM during #ASCO25? Here’s how to get to the Regency Ballroom AB & CD (Ballroom Level, West Tower) at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. Follow along for an evening of expert insights! 🔗 bit.ly/Onc25T Heather Wakelee

Conjugating PD1 antibody to RBCs yields responses in refractory solid tumors - is this delivery better than conventional antibodies? Kudos to Dr Nie from Westlake University for this #asco25 oral abstract & Meredith Pelster Dr Sarah Nikiforow for chairing


Groundbreaking data from Dr Martin Wermke showing ORR 56%, DOR 12.1 months in PD-1 R/R melanomas in a phase I trial at KOUAKOU Eager to further explore this strategy in other tumor types that express PRAME! Jason Luke, MD, FACP Harpreet Singh


Congrats to my colleague Lilit Karapetyan presenting 49% ORR for TIL in real-world setting! Response rates higher if 3L or earlier patients -ORR 61% (14/23). 🎉 This is a call for earlier referrals in academics. Moffitt Cancer Center Allison Betof Warner, MD, PhD 👉ir.iovance.com/news-releases/…
