Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a two-arm, randomized, double-blinded, multicenter phase III clinical study to evaluate the clinical efficacy of HLX10 combined with HLX04 and XELOX chemotherapy versus placebo combined with Avastin® and XELOX chemotherapy in first-line treatment of patients with mCRC.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2/Phase 3

Detailed Description

Patients with confirmed unresectable metastatic/recurrent colorectal adenocarcinoma who have not received systemic anti-neoplastic therapy for metastatic/recurrent lesions will be included in this study.Approximately 6-12 patients will be enrolled in the Part I (Safety Run-in Period).Approximately 100 patients will be enrolled in the Part II (Phase II study, 50 in the test group and 50 in the control group).Approximately 654 patients will be enrolled in the Part III (Phase III study, 327 in the test group and 327 in the control group).

Part II (Phase II study): Approximately 40 study sites in China will participate.

Part III (Phase III study): A total of approximately 75 study sites in 7 countries(including China, the United States, Brazil, Indonesia, Russia, Poland, Spain, etc.) will participate.

The study consists of a screening period (up to 28 days), a treatment period (3-week cycle, up to 2 years), and a follow-up period (including a safety follow-up period, and a survival follow-up every 12 weeks).
