Brief Summary

This study comprises both Phase I and Phase II research. This phase focuses on safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics using a "3+3" dose escalation design with three dose groups: 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, and 6 mg/kg. The drug will be administered in combination with the standard regimen for intermediate/high-risk rhabdomyosarcoma once every three weeks (Q3W). In phase II study, all subjects will receive Pucotenlimab combined with the standard regimen for intermediate/high-risk rhabdomyosarcoma for 2-4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy every 3 weeks (Q3W), followed by surgery.

Conditions

Rhabdomyosarcoma; Pediatric Cancer

Study Groups

Pucotenlimab Combined with Standard Chemotherapy Regimen

In phase I, it focuses on safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics using a "3+3" dose escalation design with three dose groups: 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, and 6 mg/kg. The drug will be administered in combination with the standard regimen for intermediate/high-risk rhabdomyosarcoma once every three weeks (Q3W).

In phase II, after establishing the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D), ll subjects will receive Pucotenlimab combined with the standard regimen for intermediate/high-risk rhabdomyosarcoma for 2-4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy every 3 weeks (Q3W), followed by surgery.

The standard regimen for intermidiate/high-risk rhabdomyosarcoma refer to the SYSUCC-RMS-2017 in China.
