Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is an open-label first-in-human phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HLX43.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This study is an open-label first-in-human phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HLX43 with escalated doses in the treatment of patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. In this study, a 3 + 3 dose escalation method will be adopted, and the patients will be administered with HLX43 at different doses via intravenous infusion. The DLT observation period lasts for 3 weeks after the first administration of HLX43.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: HLX43 group

The initial dose of HLX43 is 0.5 mg/kg, and 6 dose levels are designed: 0.5 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 2 mg/kg, 4 mg/kg, 6 mg/kg, and 8 mg/kg, once every 3 weeks (Q3W). Patients with good tolerability and well controlled disease will receive the treatment until progressive disease (PD) without any clinical benefit, initiation of other anti-tumor therapies, death, intolerable toxicity, or withdraw the informed consent (whichever occurs first).

Drug: HLX43
HLX43 is an anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody conjugated with a novel high potency DNA topoisomerase I (topo I) inhibitor, with a drug-antibody-ratio (DAR) of 8.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. The Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) of HLX43 within 21 days after the first Administration [From first dose to the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 3 weeks)]

      DLT refers to the AEs that are determined to be related to the investigational product by the investigator, whose severity will affect the escalation of dose level. In this study, the DLT observation period lasts for 21 days after the first administration of HLX51

    2. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of HLX43 [From first dose to the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 3 weeks)]

      The highest dose level, at which DLT is observed in no more than one of 6 evaluable patients, is defined as MTD of HLX43

    2. Patients who previously have grade ≥ 3 irAEs in immunotherapy;

    3. Patients who have history of (non-infectious) ILD requiring steroids, current ILD, or suspected ILD that cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening;

    4. Subjects who are known to have severe anaphylaxis to protein preparations/ monoclonal antibodies or are allergic to any component in the formulation of the investigational product;
