A Study of HLX42 in Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors

The first stage: This study is an open-label first-in-human phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HLX42 with escalated doses in the treatment of patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. In this study, a 3 + 3 dose escalation method will be adopted, and the patients will be administered with HLX42 at different doses via intravenous infusion. The DLT observation period lasts for 3 weeks after the first administration of HLX42.

The second stage: This is a randimazation, open label, 2 arms, muticentral clinical study, about 30 patients in each arm, the total sample size is about 60. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio: Group A: HLX42 2.5 mg/kg; Group B: HLX42 2.0 mg/kg. Stratification: tumor tissue type(adenocarcinoma or squamous carcinoma), EGFR-sensitive mutation status (mutant or wild-type or missing).
