Overview
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether fruquintinib(HMPL-013) plus sintilimab(IBI308) is safe and effective in the treatment of advanced endometrial cancer(EMC).
Description
A randomized, open, positive-controlled, multicenter Phase III clinical study to compare the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib(HMPL-013) plus sintilimab(IBI308) versus chemotherapy in patients with advanced endometrial cancer who have progressed after first-line standard chemotherapy

- Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days before randomization.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Endometrial carcinosarcoma or sarcoma;
- Known MMR(mismatch repair)/MSI status with dMMR(deficient mismatch repair) or MSI-H(microsatellite instability-high);
- Toxicities related to prior anticancer therapy did not recover to ≤CTCAE Grade 1, except alopecia and oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neurotoxicity ≤CTCAE Grade 2;
- Received systemic anti-tumor therapy approved within 4 weeks before randomization;
- Other malignancies within the past 5 years;
- Previous or screening central nervous system (CNS) metastases;
- Radical radiotherapy within 4 weeks before randomization
- Previously received any anti-programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1) antibody, anti-PD-L1(programmed death ligand-1) antibody, anti-PD-L2(programmed death ligand-2) antibody, or anti cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) antibody or any other antibody acting on T cell costimulation or checkpoint pathways (eg, OX40, CD137, etc) or small molecule vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors;
- Symptomatic or treatment-requiring thyroid dysfunction at screening;
- Use of immunosuppressive agents within 4 weeks before randomization
- Presence of any active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment or history of autoimmune disease within the past 2 years;
- Systemic immunostimulants within 4 weeks before randomization;
- Administration of any live or live-attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks before randomization or planned during the study;
- Major surgical procedures within 4 weeks before randomization;
- Uncontrolled malignant pleural effusion, ascites or pericardial effusion;
- Patients with current hypertension uncontrolled by medication;
- Patients with any current disease or condition affecting drug absorption, or patients unable to take oral medications;
- Receiving strong inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme;
- Patients with gastrointestinal diseases or unresected tumors with active bleeding, or other conditions that may cause gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation as judged by the investigator; or with gastrointestinal perforation or gastrointestinal fistula, which is not recovered after surgical treatment;
- Active bleeding within 3 weeks before randomization, or melena, or bleeding from a tumor within 2 weeks before the first dose ;
- Tumor invading major vascular structures and is judged by the investigator to be at greater risk of massive haemorrhage;
- Patients who had arterial thrombosis or deep venous thrombosis within 6 months before randomization; or patients who had stroke events and/or transient ischemic attack within 12 months; patients who had thrombosis caused by implantable intravenous infusion pump or catheter, except patients who had stable thrombosis after conventional anticoagulant therapy;
- Clinically significant cardiovascular disease;
- Clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities as judged by the investigator;
- Active infection or fever of unknown origin before randomization;
- Patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment or anti-tuberculosis treatment within 1 year before randomization;
- Patients with previous and current history of pulmonary fibrosis, interstitial pneumonia, pneumoconiosis, radiation pneumonitis, drug-related pneumonia, severely impaired pulmonary function, which may interfere with the detection and management of suspected drug-related pulmonary toxicity; previous or current (non-infectious) pulmonary inflammation requiring steroid hormone therapy;
- Positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody screening;
- Known history of clinically significant liver disease
- Known hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or any of their excipients, or previous history of serious hypersensitivity to any other monoclonal antibody;

- Women who are pregnant (positive pregnancy test before medication) or breastfeeding;
- Patients who have received tissue/organ transplantation;
- Patients with known psychiatric disorders or substance abuse disorders that could affect study compliance;
- Patients who, in the opinion of the investigator, have other reasons that would make them inappropriate for this clinical study.
