Brief Summary

This study aims to provide a basis for further clinical development of YK012.

Conditions

Relapsed or Refractory B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Incidence of subjects with adverse events (AEs) and/or serious adverse events (SAEs)

  An AE is defined as any untoward medical event that occurs after a subject receives the investigational drug, which may be manifested as symptoms, signs, diseases, or laboratory abnormalities, but may not necessarily have a causal relationship with the investigational drug. An SAE refers to an untoward medical occurrence such as death, life-threatening event, permanent or serious disability or loss of function, need for hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization after the subject receives the investigational drug, and congenital abnormalities or birth defects.

  From the first infusion of YK012 until 28 Days after end of treatment

• The incidence and profile of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

  The toxicities occurring within 28 days (i.e., DLT observation period) after the first dose will be defined as DLTs in the discretion of the investigator as possibly, probably, or definitely related to the IMP (Investigational Medicinal Product).

  28 days after the first dose

• The maximum tolerated dose and/or the recommended dose for further clinical trial

  The MTD will be determined based on the occurrence rate of the DLT. The MTD is defined as the highest dose in which 1/6 or less subjects experience a DLT.

  28 days after the first dose

• Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) after administration

  12 weeks

• Maximum concentration (Cmax) after administration

  12 weeks

• Time to maximum concentration (Tmax) after administration

  12 weeks

• Terminal elimination half-life (T1/2) after administration

Study Arms (1)

YK012

EXPERIMENTAL

Drug: YK012 Patients will be administered with YK012 by intravenous infusion every two weeks (Q2W, 4 weeks in a treatment cycle). Treatment will be continued until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, patient being lost to follow-up, death or up to 6 cycles, whichever occurs first.

Drug: YK012

Interventions

YK012 DRUG

YK012 is a bispecific antibody targeting CD19 on B cells and CD3 on T cells leading to T cell-mediated cytotoxicity of malignant B cells

Also known as: YK012 for Injection
