nci_thesaurus_definition
A preparation of autologous T-lymphocytes collected from the patient after the administration of a personalized cancer vaccine composed of an attenuated form of patient-specific cancer cells and an immunological adjuvant, via leukapheresis, and activated ex vivo, with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic activities. Cancer neoantigens-specific T-cells are collected after the administration of the personalized cancer vaccine and expanded ex vivo. Upon administration, the autologous vaccine-enhanced ex vivo activated cancer neoantigens-specific T-cells TVI-Brain-1 recognize and bind to tumor cells expressing the cancer neoantigens, resulting in a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated immune response against the patients tumor cells.

drug_mechanism_of_action
Autologous T cells are primed in vivo by a personalized whole-tumor cell vaccine to generate neoantigen-reactive clones, then collected by leukapheresis, activated and expanded ex vivo, and reinfused to recognize patient-specific neoantigens on GBM cells and kill them via TCR-mediated cytotoxic activity; low-dose IL-2 supports T-cell survival and proliferation.
