Overview

The study is being conducted to to explore the reasonable dosage and evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of HLX43 (Anti-PD-L1 ADC) in Patients with Locally Advanced or Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Failed or Intolerance to Standard Therapy

Description

This study is an open-label phase II clinical study to explore the reasonable dosage and evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of HLX43 (Anti-PD-L1 ADC) in Patients with Locally Advanced or Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Failed or Intolerance to Standard Therapy. In this study, eligible subjects will be randomized at 1:1:1 ratio, and the patients will be administered with HLX43 at different doses via intravenous infusion.

Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage C; BCLC stage B patients who are not suitable for locoregional therapy may also be enrolled. 6. Within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of the medication, at least one measurable target lesion must be evaluated according to the RECIST v1.1 criteria. A region that has received prior local treatment may also be selected as a target lesion if there is a clear progression that meets the RECIST v1.1 standards; 7. Tumor tissue should be provided as much as possible for an evaluable PD-L1 expression result at Screening period; 8. Before the initial administration of the study drug, there should be at least a 3-week interval or 5 times the half-life of the last cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or biological therapy, whichever is shorter. There should be at least a 2-week interval from the previous small molecule targeted therapy, at least a 1-week interval from traditional Chinese medicine treatment with antitumor indications or minor surgery. Additionally, treatment-related adverse events (AEs) should have recovered to NCI-CTCAE grade ≤ 1 (except for grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity and alopecia); 9.

Expected survival ≥ 3 monthes; 12. Subjects of HBsAg (-) and HBcAb (-) are allowed to be enrolled. If HBsAg (+) or HBcAb (+), then HBV-DNA must be \< 500 IU/mL or \<2500 copy/ml or \ 150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mmHg despite active treatment); 14.

Patients with autoimmune-related hypothyroidism who are undergoing thyroid hormone replacement therapy are permitted to participate in the study; patients with controlled Type 1 diabetes mellitus receiving insulin therapy are also allowed to participate in the study; 16. Received systemic corticosteroids (prednisone \>10 mg/day or an equivalent dose of similar drugs) or other immunosuppressive treatments within 14 days prior to the first dose; with the following exceptions: use of topical, ophthalmic, intra-articular, intranasal, and inhaled corticosteroids; short-term use of corticosteroids for prophylactic treatment during situations such as the use of contrast agents; 17. Live vaccinations or attenuated live vaccinations should not be administered within 4 weeks prior to the initial dosing. Administration of inactivated viral vaccines for seasonal influenza is permitted; 18. Used strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP2D6 or CYP3A within 2 weeks prior to randomization; 19.

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?
