Overview
This is a Multi-center, Open-label, Single-arm Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of HL-085 in the treatment of Adult Participants with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) and Inoperable Plexiform Neurofibromas(PN)
Description
The study includes 2 parts, phase IIa and IIb. Phase IIa is to evaluate the preliminary safety, pharmacokinetic characteristics and efficacy of HL-085, and to determine the recommended dose. To observe the 9mg dose level, approximately 15 patients will receive HL-085 at a dose of 9mg BID on a continuous dosing schedule(1 cycle=21 days). The investigator and sponsor will evaluate the safety and efficacy data to determine whether HL-085 9mg BID is appropriate. HL-085 12mg BID, 6mg BID, or other HL-085 dosing regimen will be observed as needed. A total of 15-35 patients will be enrolled in phase IIa. Phase IIb is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of HL-085 in patients with NF1 and inoperable PN and is expected to enroll 35 patients.
