Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
SXRN
Phase Ia: 3\~4 dose cohorts are initially formulated, namely: 4 mg, 6mg, 8mg, and Xmg of SXRN Injection, utilizing the conventional "3+3" design for dose escalation. Participants will be enrolled sequentially into the 3\~4 dose cohorts, starting from low to high.
Phase Ib: 2 dose cohorts of SXRN Injection (tentatively 6 mg and 8 mg, based on phase Ia data) are initially formulated, in patients with cancers including but not limited to pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, and colon cancer. Treatment will combine the standard anti-tumor therapy with SXRN Injection.
The infusion on the first day for each dose cohort is referred to as C1D1, with the administration qd for 5 consecutive days, followed by a 2-day break; Each treatment cycle spans 3 weeks (21 days).
The study plans to enroll 12-24 participants for phase Ia and 20-30 participants for phase Ib, and will be conducted at 1-2 center(s) nationwide.
SXRN Injection
Intravenous infusion, qd for 5 consecutive days, followed by a 2-day break; every 3 weeks (21days) makes a treatment cycle. Ⅰa phase:conventional "3+3" design for dose escalation; Ⅰb phase:standard anti-tumor therapy combined with SXRN Injection
