Detailed Description
APG-1387 is a potent, bivalent small-molecule IAP antagonist. This study is multi-center, single-agent, open-label, Phase I dose-escalation study of APG-1387.
This study has a 4-dose-schedule which is escalated one by one after confirming safety in the previous lower dose schedule. A total of 60 subjects with Chronic Hepatitis B will be participated in the study. APG-1387 will be administrated via intravenous infusion, once a week for consecutive 4 weeks as one cycle.The start dose is 7mg. 3 patients' cohorts will be evaluated, the dose of APG-1387 will be increased in subsequent cohorts, to 12mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, 45 mg accordingly. 3 patients in 7mg,12mg cohorts and 6 patients in 20mg, 30mg and 45mg cohorts will be recruited. If there is any one of the following event is observed within 28 days of the first dose of APG-1387, the recruitment will be hold and a discussion on MTD dose level will happened.1 ≥1/2 patients experience ≥Grade 2 toxicities[CTCAE 4.0.3] related or possibly related with APG-1387 and with clinical manifestation. 2 ≥1/3 patients experience ≥Grade 3 toxicities[CTCAE 4.0.3] related or possibly related with APG-1387.3 any SAE related or possibly related with APG-1387. Expansion study will be designed to explore primary efficacy and safety after the dose escalation study. The expansion number and dosage will be decided according to the results of each cohort.(no more than 36 patients).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) [28 days]

Secondary Outcome Measures
- Pharmacokinetic evaluation [28 days]
Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) will be assessed in the patients treated with APG-1387.
- Pharmacokinetic evaluation [28 days]
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) will be assessed in the patients treated with APG-1387 .
