a cohort ind expanded access program for supporting patient access to tebentafusp

Conditions: Uveal Melanoma

Summary: this expanded access program aims to: 1. provide access to tebentafusp for mum patients. 2. provide access to tebentafusp for patients, who were on the control arm of the randomized controlled phase ii trial (imcgp100-202) and were unable to crossover during the specified window. 3. ensure that patients, who are benefiting from tebentafusp treatment while participating in an ongoing immunocore sponsored clinical study (e.g., imcgp100-102 or imcgp100-201), may continue tebentafusp treatment on this programme once the ongoing trial has met all of its key primary and secondary objectives.
