About this study

New York esophageal antigen-1 (NY-ESO-1) and LAGE-1a antigens are tumor-associated proteins that have been found in several tumor types. Clinical trials using adoptively transferred T-cells directed against NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1a have shown objective responses. Letetresgene autoleucel (GSK3377794) is the first generation of NY-ESO-1 specific T-cell receptor (TCR) engineered T-cells. This protocol investigates Letetresgene autoleucel treatment in Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-A*02+ participants with NY-ESO1+ advanced myxoid/round cell liposarcoma or high-grade myxoid liposarcoma.

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 1, Day 4 and Day 8

    Triplicate 12-Lead ECGs were collected at baseline visit and single ECGs at other timepoints. At each time point during the study ECG was taken using an ECG machine that automatically calculates the heart rate and measured the PR interval, QRS duration, QTcB, QTcF intervals, RR interval and uncorrected QT interval. Baseline is the most recent, non-missing value within 7 days prior to the lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Change from baseline was to be calculated by subtracting post-dose value from baseline value.

  20. Change From Baseline in ECG Mean Heart Rate

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 1 (Pre-dose), Day 4 and Day 8

    Single 12-lead ECG was to be obtained at designated time points during the study using an ECG machine that automatically calculates the heart rate and measures PR, QRS, QT, and QTc intervals. Baseline is the most recent, non-missing value within 7 days prior to the lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Change from baseline was to be calculated by subtracting post-dose value from baseline value.
