Exclusion criteria

  • Subjects with allergic diathesis, or history of food/drug allergy within recent 4 weeks, especially hypersensitivity to any component of investigational product or excipients;
  • Blood donation or substantial blood loss (>200 mL) within 3 months, or platelet donation within 2 weeks prior to investigational product administration;

  • Hereditary bleeding tendency, coagulation disorders, or history of thrombosis / hemorrhagic diseases;
  • Prior treatment with EGFR-targeted agents;
  • Use of prescription / over-the-counter drugs or nutritional supplements within 5 half-lives of the product OR within 2 weeks before study drug administration (whichever is longer). Discontinue traditional Chinese medicinal supplements 28 days prior to study drug administration, except for topical products with no systemic absorption.
  • Clinically significant abnormalities as assessed by investigator in vital signs (SBP <90 mmHg or >140 mmHg; DBP >90 mmHg), physical examination, ECG (resting heart rate <50 or >100 beats/min), laboratory tests (blood biochemistry, CBC, urinalysis, coagulation);
  • Presence of any investigator-identified clinically significant disease, including but not limited to gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, neurological, hematological, endocrine, neoplastic, pulmonary, immune, psychiatric, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders;
  • History of hepatitis B, hepatitis C, AIDS, syphilis, or clinically significant abnormality in ≥1 item of infectious disease four-panel screening;
  • Alcohol intake ≥14 units/week within 3 months pre-screening (1 unit = 285 mL beer, 25 mL 40%-ABV spirits, 150 mL 12%-ABV wine); alcohol-containing products consumed within 24 h prior to study drug dosing; positive alcohol breath test at screening;
  • Cigarette smoking ≥5 cigarettes/day within 3 months pre-screening;
  • Drug abuse history within 5 years, illicit drug use within 3 months before screening, habitual use of any medicines (including herbal medicines), or positive urine drug screen.
  • Participation in any drug clinical trial with investigational product administration, or medical device trial receiving device treatment, or use of drugs of the same class within 3 months prior to screening;
  • Receipt of live-attenuated vaccines within 14 days prior to first dosing, or planned live-attenuated vaccination during study;
  • Intolerance to venipuncture blood collection, or history of needle-phobia or hematophobia;
  • Any subject who, in investigator's judgment, may be unable to provide informed consent or follow the protocol; whose participation may bias study results or endanger subject safety; or otherwise considered unsuitable for study enrollment.

Treatment and study plan

HC034S

Drug

Single intravenous infusion. Study participants shall be pre-medicated with antihistamines and corticosteroids no less than 1 h before the first HC034S injection infusion. Administer intravenously by infusion pump at 250 mg/m² (body surface area), infusion duration: 2 h ± 10 min.

Erbitux (Cetuximab)

Drug

Single intravenous infusion. Study participants shall be pre-medicated with antihistamines and corticosteroids no less than 1 h before the first cetuximab injection infusion. Administer intravenously by infusion pump at 250 mg/m² (body surface area), infusion duration: 2 h ± 10 min.
