Treatment and study plan

AK104+lenvatinib

Biological

Subjects will receive AK104+lenvatinib until disease progression

Lenvatinib

Drug

Subjects will receive lenvatinib until disease progression

Primary outcomes

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    Proportion of subjects who have a complete or partial response relative to baseline as assessed by BICR according to RECIST v1.1.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    OS is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization till the first documented disease progression (Per RECIST v1.1 assessed by the investigator) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

  3. Duration of Response (DOR) assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    DOR means time measured from the date of partial or complete response to therapy until the cancer progresses based on RECIST v1.1 criteria.

  4. Time to Response (TTR) assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    TTR refers to Time to Response.

  5. Number of participants with adverse event (AE)

    Time frame: Up to 24 months

    The number of participants experiencing an Adverse Event (AE) and the severity of AEs will be assessed. AE refers to any untoward medical occurrence or deterioration of existing medical event after the subject signed the ICF, whether or not considered related to the study treatment.
