Phase II Study of Becotatug Vedotin Plus Pucotenlimab for Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors With EGFR-Positive

Официальное название

ELEVATE Study: A Phase II Single-Arm Open-Label Single-Center Exploratory Trial of Becotatug Vedotin (MRG003) Plus Pucotenlimab (HX008) in Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors With EGFR-Positive

Обзор

This phase II trial evaluates the combination of Becotatug Vedotin (MRG003), an EGFR-targeting ADC, and Pucotenlimab (HX008), a PD-1 inhibitor, in patients with high EGFR expressing advanced refractory solid tumors. The study is designed to assess clinical efficacy and safety, building on a strong synergistic rationale and promising early-phase data.

Подробное описание

Given the substantial unmet medical need for effective treatment options in patients with advanced refractory solid tumors, and grounded in the synergistic rationale of combining EGFR-targeted therapy with immune checkpoint modulation, the encouraging efficacy and manageable safety profiles observed in early phase studies of Becotatug Vedotin (MRG003) andPucotenlimab (HX008) provide a strong rationale for further investigation. Accordingly, a methodologically rigorous phase II clinical trial is warranted to objectively evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of this dual regimen specifically in patients with high EGFR expressing advanced refractory solid tumors.

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Age≥18 years at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2 within 7 days prior to the first dose. ECOG 2 is allowable if it is solely attributable to tumor progression, as judged by the investigator.
• Life expectancy≥ 12 weeks.
• Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have failed standard therapy (progressive disease or intolerance to prior treatment), or for whom standard therapy is currently not applicable or unavailable. There is no limit on the number of prior lines of therapy.
• Documentation of EGFR expression status is required for enrollment. If not available, the subject must provide adequate fresh or archival tumor tissue samples for EGFR testing. If adequate tumor specimens cannot be provided, a repeat biopsy may be performed if deemed feasible and safe by the investigator and after obtaining the subject's consent; however, repeat biopsy is not mandatory. In cases where repeat biopsy is not feasible or the subject refuses, eligibility must be jointly confirmed by the investigator and the sponsor.
• EGFR expression positive (2+ or 3+) as determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC).
• At least one measurable lesion per RECIST version 1.1.
• Adequate organ function, as defined by the following criteria (no blood components, cell growth factors, leukopoiesis agents, thrombopoiesis agents, or anemia-correcting drugs are allowed within 14 days prior to the first dose):

A. White blood cell count (WBC) ≥ 3.0 x 10\^9/L; absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 2.0 x 10\^9/L.

B. Hemoglobin (HB) ≥90 g/L. C. Platelet count ≥ 100x10\^9/L. D. Serum albumin ≥ 2.8 g/dL. E. Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN); alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3.0 x ULN.

F. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or creatinine clearance > 60 mL/min. G. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and international normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 x ULN (subjects receiving stable doses of anticoagulants, such as low-molecular-weight heparin or warfarin, with INR within the expected therapeutic range for the anticoagulant, are eligible for screening).

• No contraindications to chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy.
• No history of immune-related diseases.
• No uncontrolled pneumonia or pulmonary infection.
• Females of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception during the trial; a serum or urine pregnancy test must be negative within 72 hours before the start of chemotherapy.
• Subjects must be compliant, able to undergo treatment and follow-up, and willing to comply with the study requirements as specified in the protocol.
• For male subjects with partners of childbearing potential, effective medical contraception must be used from the signing of the ICF until 6 months after the last dose.
• Subjects must voluntarily sign the ICF and be able to comply with the protocol-specified visits and procedures.
