Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

An open-label multi-center phase Ib/II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody AK104 plus lenvatinib as the first-line therapy for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: AK104 and Lenvatinib

AK104 6 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks (Q2W) Lenvatinib 12mg weight≥60kg or 8mg weight<60kg,PO QD

Drug: Lenvatinib
Subjects will receive AK104 and lenvatinib until disease progression for a maximum of 24 months

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Objective response rate (ORR) [Up to 2 years]

    ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with confirmed CR or PR, based on RECIST v1.1.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Disease control rate (DCR) [Up to 2 years]

    The DCR is defined as the proportion of subjects with CR, PR, or SD (subjects achieving SD will be included in the DCR if they maintain SD for ≥8 weeks) based on RECIST Version 1.1.

  2. Duration of response (DoR) [Up to 2 years]

    Duration of response is defined as the duration from the first documentation of objective response to the first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first

  3. Progression-free survival (PFS) [Up to 2 years]

    Progression-free survival is defined as the time from the start of treatment with AK104 until the first documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

  4. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) [the time of informed consent signed through 90 days after the last dose of AK104 and]

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment.

  5. Observed concentrations of AK104 [From first dose of AK104 through 90 days after last dose of AK104]

    The endpoints for assessment of PK of AK104 include serum concentrations of AK104 at different timepoints after AK104 administration.

  6. Number of subjects who develop detectable anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) [From first dose of AK104 through 90 days after last dose of AK104]

    The immunogenicity of AK104 will be assessed by summarizing the number of subjects who develop detectable antidrug antibodies (ADAs).
