  • Clinically significant gastrointestinal abnormalities that may affect the intake, transport or absorption of drugs (for example, inability to swallow, chronic diarrhea or intestinal obstruction, and patients had total gastrectomy).
  • Patients with a history of serious diseases in the central nervous system. Patients with a history of epilepsy or any history of diseases that may induce epilepsy, including unexplained loss of consciousness or transient ischemic attack.
  • Patients who have been diagnosed in the past 5 years with other malignant tumors in addition to prostate cancer, except patients with cured basal or squamous cell skin cancer and superficial bladder tumors (Ta, Tis, and T1).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing HC-1119 in people with MCRPC, run by Hinova Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yi Zhou (+86 1821 5530 757, yzhou@hinovapharma.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radiographic Progression-Free Survival (rPFS) (time frame: From signing informed consent up to approximately 30 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03851640, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Mar 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
