Last Updated: 2024-03-26

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: RECRUITING
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1
• Total Enrollment: 200 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2023-08-15
• Study Completion Date: 2026-12-31

Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NBL-020 injection in subjects with advanced malignant tumors, and determine the dose limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerable dose (MTD) (if any), recommended phase II dose (RP2D), and dosing regimen of NBL-020.

Detailed Description

The study is divided into two parts: dose escalation and dose expansion. Dose increasing study: The initial dose for the dose escalation study is 0.1 mg/kg administered once every 3 weeks (Q3W), with a pre-set maximum escalation dose of 30 mg/kg Q3W. Safety Management Committee (SMC) can jointly discuss and determine whether to proceed with a higher dose group or increase additional doses or different dosing intervals between two adjacent dose groups (such as Q2W or Q4W) based on the safety, tolerance, efficacy, PK, PD, and related biomarker data of each dose group.

Dose expansion study: Based on the results of the dose escalation study, the dosage for the dose extension study will be determined through joint discussion between the sponsor and the investigators. If necessary, multiple doses can be selected for dose extension.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. Those who are 18 years old or older (based on the date of signing the informed consent form) and voluntarily sign the informed consent form;

2. For malignant tumors confirmed by histology or cytology, only solid tumor subjects were included in dose escalation study. In addition to solid tumors, additional skin T-cell lymphoma subjects could be considered in dose expansion study;

3. Must be willing to provide tumor tissue samples that can meet the requirements of biomarker testing (fresh biopsy tissue is preferred; if fresh tissue cannot be provided, tumor tissue samples within 2 years can be provided), and tumor samples will be tested by the central laboratory. If tumor tissue does not meet the testing requirements, additional biopsy may be required;

4. If the standard treatment fails or toxicity is intolerable, or there is no standard treatment, the enrolled subjects must fully recover from previous treatment, with an AE level of 0-1 (except for alopecia, pigmentation, or other toxicity that the researcher believes is not a safety risk to the subjects);

5. For subjects with solid tumor, there is at least one measurable lesion that meets the RECIST 1.1 standard at the baseline (the measurable lesion area has not received radiotherapy in the past, or there is evidence that the lesion has unequivocal progressed after radiotherapy);

6. ECOG PS score 0-1 points;

7. Expected survival time ≥ 3 months (12 weeks);

8. Good organ function (no blood transfusion or growth factor support treatment received within 2 weeks before blood collection for relevant examinations), including:

1. Absolute value of neutrophils (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 10^9/L；

2. Hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 90 g/L;

3. Platelets ≥ 100 × 10^9 /L;

4. Creatinine ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal value (ULN) or creatinine clearance rate ≥ 50 mL/min (Cockcroft Fault formula);

5. Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN (≤ 3 × ULN for Gilbert's syndrome）;

6. Alanine aminotransferase (AST) and aspartate aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN (≤ 5 × ULN for subjects with liver metastasis);

7. Coagulation function: activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), international standardized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 × ULN.

Note: If the subject does not meet the requirements during screening, a re-examination is allowed.

9. The subjects must agree to take effective contraceptive measures from the signing of the informed consent form until 6 months after the last administration. Women of childbearing age tested negative for serum pregnancy within 7 days before the first dose of the investigational drug.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Subjects with a history of severe allergies to monoclonal antibodies;

2. Active pia mater lesions or uncontrolled brain metastases exist. Subjects with suspected or confirmed brain metastasis can be enrolled as long as they are asymptomatic and do not require treatment (such as radiotherapy, surgery, or corticosteroid therapy) to control the symptoms of brain metastasis. For subjects with brain metastasis requiring treatment, their symptoms remain stable (without hormone maintenance treatment, without symptoms of brain metastasis) for 2 weeks after treatment, and they can be enrolled.

3. Subjects with active autoimmune diseases or a history of autoimmune diseases, but with the following diseases are allowed to be included in the study: well controlled type I diabetes, well controlled hypothyroidism only requiring hormone replacement treatment, skin diseases without systemic treatment (such as vitiligo, psoriasis or alopecia), or subjects who are expected to have no relapse under the condition of no external trigger factors;

4. Having a history of primary immunodeficiency, a history of allogeneic organ transplantation, or a history of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation;

5. Chronic hepatitis B (HBsAg and/or HBcAb positive but HBV DNA<2000 IU/mL can be included), chronic hepatitis C (HCV antibody positive but HCV RNA negative can be included), and HIV antibody positive;

6. The toxicity of previous anti-tumor treatments has not returned to ≤ Grade 1 (except for alopecia, pigmentation, or other toxicity that the researchers believe is not a safety risk to the subjects);

7. Have a history of serious cardiovascular disease, including but not limited to:

1. Serious cardiac rhythm or conduction abnormalities, including but not limited to ventricular arrhythmias requiring clinical intervention, third degree atrioventricular block, within 6 months prior to the first dose of the investigational drug;

2. Have a history of myocardial infarction, unstable angina, angioplasty, or coronary artery bypass surgery within 6 months before the first dose of the experimental drug;

3. Heart failure, classified as Grade Ш or above by the New York Heart Association (NYHA);

8. Uncontrollable serous cavity effusion that requires frequent drainage or medical intervention (such as pleural effusion, abdominal effusion, pericardial effusion, etc., which requires additional intervention within 2 weeks after the intervention, excluding exfoliative cytology testing of the exudate) within 7 days before the first dose of the experimental drug;

9. Severe or active infections (including tuberculosis infections) that require systemic antibacterial, antifungal, or antiviral treatment within 14 days before the first use of the experimental drug, except for subjects with viral hepatitis receiving antiviral treatment;

10. Received any anti-tumor treatment (including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, etc.) and any clinical research treatment within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives before the first administration (whichever is shorter);
