A Phase I Clinical Study of HLX316 in Participants With Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors

This study is an open-label, first-in-human Phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK characteristics, and preliminary antitumor activity of HLX316 in participants with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. The study will consist of 2 parts: a Phase Ia dose-escalation part and a Phase Ib dose-expansion part. Phase Ia and Phase Ib will focus on exploring the preliminary antitumor activity of HLX316 in participants with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer.

Hepatitis B:

  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive (chronic HBV infection): participants are eligible if they are receiving antiviral therapy and hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV DNA) is controlled/undetectable.
  • HBsAg-negative and anti-hepatitis B core (HBc)-positive (resolved prior infection): eligible for enrollment. Prophylactic treatment should be considered and reactivation should be monitored.

  • HCV Ab-positive but RNA-negative (spontaneous clearance).
  • Participants with untreated central nervous system (CNS) epidural tumors or metastases, or untreated brain metastases. Known leptomeningeal metastases, or uncontrolled or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases, manifesting as clinical symptoms, cerebral edema, spinal cord compression, and/or progressive growth. Participants with a history of CNS metastases or spinal cord compression may be enrolled if they have received definitive treatment and are considered clinically stable by the investigator after discontinuation of anticonvulsants and steroids for 8 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment. Participants with untreated, asymptomatic brain metastases (i.e., no neurological symptoms, no requirement for corticosteroids, no brain metastatic lesion with a longest diameter > 1.5 cm, and no significant edema peripheral to brain metastatic lesions) may be enrolled. Brain metastatic lesions will not be designated as target lesions.

  • In the investigator's judgment, the participant has other serious illnesses that make participation in this study inappropriate.
  • Participant is unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements.
  • Other primary malignancy within 3 years prior to enrollment that has not been treated with curative intent (the investigator may consider discussion with the Medical Monitor), excluding non-metastatic basal cell/squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.
  • Any condition that, in the investigator's judgment, may interfere with the evaluation of the investigational drug, participant safety, or interpretation of study results.
