Study Description

Brief Summary

This open, dose-escalation and extended PhI/IIa clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability of T601 as a single-agent as well as combined with prodrug 5-FC to treat patients with advanced malignant solid tumors and to explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics of T601, 5-FC, 5-FU, FBAL, which includes PhI study of dose-escalation study and Ph IIa study of extending study.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: T601
  • Combination Product: T601+5-FC
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

Preclinical studies have confirmed that the combination of T601 and 5-FC can not only enhance the anti-tumor effect, but also reduce the toxicity of T601. Considering the risks and benefits of participants of the clinical trial, the protocol design is divided into 4 parts:

Part 1: dose-escalation study of single-dose of T601 to evaluate the safety and tolerability of T601 and to determine the MTD;

Part 2: dose-escalation study of single-dose of T601 combined with predrug 5-FC, to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the treatment of single dose of T601 combined with predrug 5-FC and to determine the MTD of single dose of T601 when combing with 5-FC;

Part 3: dose-escalation study of multiple-dose of T601 combined with predrug 5-FC, to explore the safety and tolerability of the treatment of multiple dose of T601 combined with predrug 5-FC and to determine the MTD of multiple dose of T601 when combing with 5-FC, also to determine the RP2D (recommended dose for Phase II Trial);

Part 4: extending study of multiple-dose of T601 combined with predrug 5-FC, to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment of multiple-dose of T601 combined with predrug 5-FC in patients with various specific tumors and to evaluate the ORR, DCR and PFS according to the RECIST v1.1.
