A Trial of Y101D, a PD-L1/TGF-β Bispecific Antibody, in Patients With Metastatic or Locally Advanced Solid Tumors

This study will consist of two parts: dose escalation part and cohort expansion part.

In dose escalation part, up to 5 dose-escalation cohorts will be sequentially enrolled in this study. The five dose levels are 1, 3, 10, 20 and 30 mg/kg. DLTs will be evaluated during the first treatment cycle, which is 28 days. The study consists of a 4-week screening period, a 4-week core treatment period for DLT evaluation, a treatment extension period, a safety follow-up visit for approximately 30 days following the last dose of Y101D, and survival follow-ups every 3 months thereafter.

In cohort expansion part, To further characterize safety and efficacy of Y101D, cohort expansion will be allowed in the following two circumstances: MTD cohort expansion if the MTD could be identified; Benefited dose cohort if it could be determined by Investigator.

• ECOG physical status score must be 0~1;
• Expected survival of subjects evaluated by the investigator ≥3 months;
• Hemogram: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L, hemoglobin ≥90g/L (no red blood cells were injected within 14 days before the first administration), platelet ≥90×109/L;
• Liver: bilirubin ≤1.5 times the upper limit of normal value, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5 times the upper limit of normal value;If the subject has liver metastasis, ALT and AST are allowed to be less than 5 times the upper limit of normal value;
• Kidney: Serum creatinine ≤1.5 times the upper limit of normal value or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min (using standard Cockcroft-Gault formula);
• Understand and voluntarily sign written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

• Major surgery (except diagnostic biopsy) within 28 days prior to the first dose;
• Subjects with central nervous system (CNS) metastases causing clinical symptoms or requiring therapeutic intervention;Patients who had previously received BMs were included if they were asymptomatic ≥4 weeks prior to initial dosing, had stable disease on radiographic findings, and did not require corticosteroid or anticonvulsant therapy;
• Receive any organ transplantation, including allogeneic stem cell transplantation, except those that do not require immunosuppression (e.g. cornea transplantation, hair transplantation);
• Adverse events caused by previous antitumor therapy have not recovered (i.e., grade 1 or at baseline), except for hair loss and grade 2 neuropathy, hormone replacement hypothyroidism, or other confirmed chronic adverse events;
• Subjects with a history of malignancy (non-study tumor) within 3 years prior to the first study administration date (other than skin squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma, carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast, or other non-invasive lesions that the Investigator and Sponsor agree have been cured and have a very low risk of recurrence within 3 years);
