NCT05102214

Brief Summary

This Phase 1/2, multicenter, first-in-human, open-label, dose-escalation, dose expansion, and clinical expansion study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor efficacy of HLX301 administered as a single-agent by IV infusion every 2 weeks to patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid malignancies, who have failed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy is available. This study has three parts: phase 1a dose escalation, phase 1b dose expansion, and phase 2 clinical expansion.

Study Arms (6)

Phase 1a dose-escalation stage

EXPERIMENTAL

Phase 1a uses the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design, to investigate the safety and determine the MTD of HLX301. Six dose levels of 0.25 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 2.5 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, and 15 mg/kg are planned for dose finding. Intra-patient dose escalation is not permitted. Enrollment will continue until a maximum of 30 patients are enrolled.

Drug: HLX301

Phase 1b dose-expansion stage

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients with NSCLC will be enrolled in two expansion cohorts, at doses equal to or lower than the MTD, to better characterize the safety, tolerability, PK variability, and preliminary efficacy of single-agent HLX301. Phase 1b dose expansion will include 20 per-protocol treated patients, as defined above, in each of the two expansion cohorts.

Drug: HLX301

Phase 2 clinical expansion stage: Cohort A

EXPERIMENTAL

20 per-protocol treated patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with PD-L1 expression, progression after one or two prior systemic anti-tumor regimens, and who have failed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy is available, will be enrolled and treated in phase 2 at RP2D.

Drug: HLX301

Phase 2 clinical expansion stage: Cohort B

EXPERIMENTAL

20 per-protocol treated patients with gastric/esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (GC/EGJ), with PD-L1 expression, progression after one or two prior systemic anti-tumor regimens, and who have failed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy is available, will be enrolled and treated in phase 2 at RP2D.

Drug: HLX301

Phase 2 clinical expansion stage: Cohort C

EXPERIMENTAL

20 per-protocol treated patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), with PD-L1 expression, progression after one or two prior systemic anti-tumor regimens, and who have failed or are intolerant to standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy is available, will be enrolled and treated in phase 2 at RP2D.

Drug: HLX301

Drug: HLX301
