Introduction
The NCI Surgery Branch has extensive experience in the development of proprietary cell transfer therapies for the treatment of patients with metastatic cancer. Initial cell transfer studies utilized tumor infiltrating lymphocytes with anti-tumor activity obtained from resected tumor specimens from patients with metastatic melanoma. In a series of clinical trials utilizing cell transfer, objective responses were seen but many patients could not be treated because anti-tumor cells were not available. Thus these therapies developed by the Surgery Branch have not been able to benefit many patients and there is a clear need for the development of new and innovative approaches. The Surgery Branch then developed techniques to isolate genes encoding NCI proprietary TCR reactive with antigens expressed on cancers and transduced these TCR genes into patient lymphocytes to enable the generation in vitro of the large numbers of anti-tumor lymphocytes needed for patient treatment. In a murine model of this approach, TCR gene transfer into peripheral blood T cells was performed using a retroviral vector. The engineered peripheral blood T cells were shown to expand in vivo upon viral challenge and efficiently homed to effector sites. In addition, small numbers of TCR-transduced peripheral blood T cells promoted the rejection of antigen-expressing tumors in the mice. Retroviral vector mediated gene transfer can be used to engineer human peripheral blood T cells with high efficiency.
In early clinical trials, Dr. Rosenberg utilized lymphocytes transduced with an NCI proprietary anti-MART-1 (Melanoma Antigen Recognized by T Cells-1) F4 TCR to treat patients with metastatic melanoma. Four of the 31 (13%) patients demonstrated a sustained objective regression of their metastatic melanoma assessed by standard RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors) criteria. The low response rate in prior MART-1 TCR gene transfer protocol led the Surgery Branch to identify MART-1 reactive TCR with higher avidity than the MART-1 F4 TCR used in the prior gene therapy clinical trial. Dr. Rosenberg then treated 24 patients with metastatic melanoma using autologous PBL (peripheral blood lymphocytes) transduced with an improved NCI proprietary MART-1 F5 TCR following non-myeolablative chemotherapy. Six patients (25%) achieved an objective partial response. Dr. Rosenberg also conducted a clinical trial in 21 patients with metastatic melanoma using an NCI proprietary TCR that recognized the gp100:154-162 melanoma peptide. This TCR was raised in an HLA (human lymphocyte antigen)-A2 transgenic mouse immunized with this peptide. Four patients (19%) achieved an objective partial response.

Page 6 of 25Confidential
Initial studies in patients with melanoma and other solid tumors have also been conducted using lymphocytes transduced with NCI proprietary TCRs targeting the MAGE-A3 (Melanoma Antigen A3), a cancer-testis antigen. Cancer-testis antigens (CTAs) are proteins expressed during fetal development but which are normally only expressed in the adult in the placenta and in non-MHC (Major Histocompatibility Complex) expressing germ cells of testis, yet are aberrantly expressed in many tumors; thus CTA appear to represent ideal targets for tumor immunotherapy. More than 110 CTA genes or gene families have been identified that are expressed in multiple tumor types. Targeting peripheral blood T cells against tumor-associated cancer-testis antigens might selectively eliminate tumor cells while avoiding toxicity to normal tissue. To generate high avidity TCRs against MAGE-A3, Dr. Rosenberg’s laboratory employed a transgenic mouse model that expresses the human HLA-A*0201 molecule. Transgenic mice expressing the full-length HLA-A*0201 molecule were immunized with a previously identified naturally processed and presented HLA-A*0201 restricted peptide from MAGE-A3 [MAGE-A3: 112-120 (KVAELVHFL)] along with a helper peptide. Following two immunizations murine peripheral blood T cells could be identified that recognized the MAGE-A3 peptide as well as MAGE-A3 positive tumors. A high affinity TCR proprietary to NCI was obtained and was transduced into human peripheral blood T cells and to demonstrate active recognition of MAGE¬A3 as well as other members of the MAGE family on human tumors. Four of 7 patients with metastatic melanoma and one of two patients with metastatic synovial cell sarcoma treated with autologous lymphocytes transduced with this MAGE-A3/A2 haplotype TCR have exhibited objective tumor regression including two patients with complete regressions ongoing at 6 and 12 months. Neurologic side effects have been seen in 3 patients probably due to cross reaction with this targeted epitope expressed in MAGE-A9 in the brain. Attempts are underway in the Surgery Branch to generated murine receptors targeting different MAGE-A3 epitopes. Several other NCI proprietary TCRs as well as chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) proprietary to the NCI, which are based on antibody recognition of cell surface molecules, are under development in the Surgery Branch for possible use in transducing autologous lymphocytes for use in the treatment of cancer patients.
Extensive research is needed to improve and simplify all aspects of production of genetically modified peripheral blood lymphocytes. The NCI Surgery Branch is exploring the identification of new TCRs and CARs that recognize new cancer antigens, including CTA, and new ways to simplify the in vitro procedures needed to prepare the appropriate cell types for infusion. To make the treatment more widely available for larger patient populations, it is necessary for the NCI Surgery Branch to work with a corporate partner interested in helping to develop these improved procedures to support the requirements for production of ACT/TCR under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) specifications and to advance these treatments to multi-center trials towards product approval by the FDA and commercialization. The recent approval of the Provenge® treatment for patients with prostate cancer by Dendreon Corporation, has demonstrated that a cell-based immunotherapy, where patient’s cells are being shipped to a central manufacturing facility for manipulation and returned back to the clinic for patient treatment, can be approved by the FDA and can form the basis of a successful commercial effort. This recent approval has stimulated considerable interest in the commercial development of similar cancer treatments.

Page 7 of 25Confidential
Dr. Steven A. Rosenberg has extensive experience in the development and application of his proprietary ACT/TCR-based therapies for patients with cancer. His laboratory has developed in vitro techniques for generating anti-tumor peripheral blood T cells by identifying genes encoding novel TCRs and generating CAR constructs (both TCRs and CARs proprietary to NCI), and transducing them into peripheral blood lymphocytes under conditions suitable for subsequent infusion, and has developed new strategies to enhance ACT/TCR product in vivo potency and survival. Dr. Rosenberg and his colleagues at the NCI Surgery Branch also have extensive experience in the design and conduct of clinical trials that evaluate ACT/TCR products to demonstrate their clinical benefit in cancer patients.
Kite Pharma, Inc. (“Kite”) has assembled a highly experienced team of senior level executives, scientists and clinicians who have extensive experience and a proven track record in the development of cancer immunotherapies. Kite’s expertise includes areas of pre-clinical and clinical research and development, regulatory, manufacturing, and product quality control and assurance. Kite’s team has been involved with advancement to the clinic of more than 10 different novel cancer therapies, mostly immunotherapies, including two that have received FDA approval and are being commercialized. In addition, the Kite team has broad experience in selecting and validating tumor-specific targets for immunotherapy, developing human antibody technologies, as well as selecting, characterizing and developing therapeutic tumor-specific monoclonal antibodies, and developing product and patient selection assays. Kite’s overall expertise will facilitate and accelerate the development of NCI’s proprietary ACT/TCR products and their advancement to subsequent pivotal trials, FDA approval and commercialization. Kite is already engaged in identifying the critical steps required for production of GMP quality ACT/TCR products in sufficient supply for multi-center studies and the process modifications that will streamline the processes. In addition, Kite has identified a qualified Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO) with expertise and capacity to support large phase II/III trials with ACT/TCR products. In parallel, the design of a dedicated ACT/TCR manufacturing facility to support the conduct of Kite’s future ACT/TCR clinical studies is currently in progress.
Thus, the combination of the scientific and clinical expertise of the NCI Surgery Branch together with Kite’s clinical, regulatory, manufacturing, operation, and business capabilities represents an ideal collaboration opportunity to successfully develop and commercialize multiple NCI proprietary ACT/TCR products for patients with different cancer diseases, making these treatments widely available to patients in need. As outlined above, the NCI Surgery Branch and Kite have complementary expertise, capabilities and facilities that could be utilized to manufacture, qualify and develop these ACT/TCR products, with the goal of realizing the application of this technology to a wide range of cancer indications.
Experimental Plan
The experimental details that follow are approximate and may be changed upon mutual agreement of the NCI and Kite. Any change in the scope of this CRADA will be by mutual consent and written Amendment to the CRADA.
