Inoperable refers to a tumor lesion in which clear surgical excision margins cannot be obtained without leading to significant functional compromise. a. For Synovial Sarcoma (Cohort 1, Cohort 2 and Cohort 3): confirmation by the presence of a translocation between SYT on the X chromosome and SSX1, SSX2 or, SSX4 on chromosome 18 (may be presented in the pathology report as t (X; 18)). b. For MRCLS (Cohort 1 only): confirmation by the presence of the reciprocal chromosomal translocation t(12;16)(q13;p11) or t(12; 22) (q13;q12)\n- Must have previously received either an anthracycline or ifosfamide containing regimen. 1st line metastatic treatment with ADP-A2M4 is permissible if ifosamide +/- doxorubicin has been administered in either the pre-operative (neoadjuvant) or post-operative (adjuvant) primary tumour setting. (Subjects who are intolerant of both anthracycline and ifosfamide must have previously received at least one other type of systemic therapy)\n- Measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1 prior to lymphodepletion.\n- Positive for HLA-A*02:01, HLA-A*02:02, HLA-A*02:03 or HLA-A*02:06 allele via Adaptimmune designated central laboratory testing.

Other HLA-A*02 alleles may be eligible after adjudication with the sponsor\n- Tumor (either an archival specimen or a fresh biopsy) shows MAGE-A4 expression of ≥2+ staining in ≥30% of the cells by immunohistochemistry.

Antiseizure prophylaxis is permitted. Subjects who have asymptomatic CNS metastases without associated edema, shift, requirement for steroids or anti-seizure medications for the treatment of seizures are eligible\n- Any other prior malignancy that is not in complete remission. Resectable squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin is acceptable. Prior malignancies that have been surgically resected and show no evidence of disease are acceptable\n- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: • Ongoing or active infection; • Clinically significant cardiac disease defined by congestive heart failure New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class 3 or Class 4; • Uncontrolled clinically significant arrhythmia; • Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) (angina or MI) in last 6 months; • Interstitial lung disease (subjects with existing pneumonitis as a result of radiation are not excluded); • Subjects must not be oxygen dependent; • Congenital or family history of long QT syndrome; • Current uncontrolled hypertension despite optimal medical therapy; • History of stroke or central nervous system bleeding; transient ischemic attack (TIA) or reversible ischemic neurologic deficit (RIND) in last 6 months; • Incipient compression/occlusion of a vital structure (e.g. bronchus; superior vena cava; renal outflow tract) which cannot undergo prophylactic stenting; • COVID-19 infection or a positive COVID-19 RT- PCR test within 28 days of leukapheresis or lymphodepleting chemotherapy.

Subjects who are hepatitis B surface antigen negative but are hepatitis B core antibody positive must have undetectable hepatitis B DNA and receive prophylaxis against viral reactivation. Prophylaxis should be initiated prior to lymphodepleting therapy and continued for 6 months; • Active hepatitis C infection as demonstrated by hepatitis C RNA test. Subjects who are HCV antibody positive will be screened for HCV RNA by any RT PCR or bDNA assay. If HCV antibody is positive, eligibility will be determined based on a negative screening RNA value; • Positive serology for HTLV 1 or 2; • Re-screening for infectious disease markers is not required at baseline (prior to lymphodepletion) unless > 6 months has elapsed."}
