Brief Summary

This study is a single-arm, randomized, open-label, multi-cohort Phase Ib clinical trial. The experimental drug is TQB2858 Injection. The trial was divided into 3 cohorts. Cohort 1 included patients with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma who had previously failed platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/ Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), etc.). Cohorts 2 and 3 were randomized into patients with advanced, untreated nasopharyngeal carcinoma who had not received prior systemic therapy. A total of 60-90 subjects are required.

Conditions

Recurrent / Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Cancer

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

TQB2858 Injection combining with other drugs

Combination 1 is TQB2858 Injection and Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules. Combination 2 is TQB2858 Injection, Gemcitabine Hydrochloride Injection and Cisplatin Injection for 4-6 cycles of induction chemotherapy, then using TQB2858 Injection and Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules for maintenance treatment.

Combination 3 is TQB2858 Injection, Gemcitabine Hydrochloride Injection, Cisplatin Injection and Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules for 4-6 cycles of induction chemotherapy, then using TQB2858 Injection and Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules for maintenance treatment.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

TQB2858 Injection

Intervention Type: DRUG

TQB2858 Injection, a bifunctional fusion protein against Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-LI) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). TQB2858 Injection blocks the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway and neutralizes TGF-β in the tumor microenvironment.

Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsule

Intervention Type: DRUG

Anlotinib hydrochloride is a muti-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

Gemcitabine hydrochloride injection

Intervention Type: DRUG

Gemcitabine hydrochloride, cell cycle-specific antimetabolites, mainly acting on tumor cells in the DNA synthesis phase (S phase cell). Under certain conditions, it can prevent the progression from G1 phase to S phase.

Cisplatin Injection

Intervention Type: DRUG

After cisplatin enters cells, it reacts with DNA to form cross-links between two points or two strands in DNA, thereby inhibiting DNA replication and transcription, resulting in DNA breaks and miscoding.
