About this study

Official title: A Phase I, First-in-Human Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Initial Efficacy of HX009 in Patients With Advanced Malignancies

This is a first-in-human, multicenter, open-label, multiple-dose Phase I study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and initial efficacy of HX009 in subjects with advanced malignant tumors. The study will consist of a dose-escalation and dose-finding component to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to evaluate the preliminary antitumor activity of HX009.

Read the detailed description

The study will follow a 3+3 dose-escalation scheme enrolling cohorts of at least 3 subjects sequentially at escalating doses. During study treatment, subjects will receive HX009 treatment via intravenous infusion once every 2 weeks. Dose escalation will continue until identification of an MTD or the maximum dose is reached. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) will be assessed from the first dose of study treatment (Day 1) until 28 days later (Day 29).

The study is divided into a screening period (28 days before first dose), treatment period (up to 24 months), and survival follow-up period. Safety will be evaluated throughout the study up until 90 (±7) days after the last dose of study treatment. Blood samples will be collected at regular intervals for pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity evaluation. Tumor evaluation (assessed by the Investigator in accordance with Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 [RECIST 1.1] and immune RECIST [iRECIST]) to assess efficacy will start from the first dose and occur every 8 weeks in the first 12 months and every 12 weeks in the second 12 months and during the survival follow-up period.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AEs)

    An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the product.

    Measured: All AEs up to 90 days after the last dose of study drug

  2. Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLT) of HX009

    Severity of adverse events (AEs) was graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. For the purpose of dose escalation, any of the following AEs occurring during the DLT observation period that were attributable to one or both study drugs were classified as DLTs.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle2(each cycle is 14 days)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Time for Cmax (Tmax) of HX009

    Time to reach HX009 maximum observed serum concentration.

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  2. Terminal Half-life (t½)of HX009

    HX009 terminal half-life.

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  3. Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve (AUC)

    HX009 area under the serum concentration-time curve .

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

  4. Number of Participants With Positive Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) of HX009

    ADA blood samples were assayed for anti-HX009 antibodies.

    Measured: Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 13, and 17, and then every 8 cycles, Day 1: within 60 minutes before the start of the infusion(each cycle is 14 days)

  5. Objective response rate(ORR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST 1.1

    The ORR, using RECIST 1.1 criteria, was defined as the percentage of participants in the analysis population who had a confirmed Complete Response (CR; disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR; at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) at any time during the study, based on Investigator assessment.

    Measured: Approximately 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HX009 in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by Waterstone Hanxbio Pty Ltd at 1 site in Australia.

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 18 inclusion and 31 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Dec 2022. 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 Australia. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: All AEs up to 90 days after the last dose of study drug). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 Dec 2022.
