Triple-Action antibody takes on advanced cancers
NCT ID NCT06741644
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 21, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tests a new drug called CS2009, a tri-specific antibody that targets three proteins (PD-1, VEGFA, and CTLA-4) to fight advanced solid tumors. The trial has two phases: first, finding the safest dose, then expanding to see how well it shrinks tumors. About 660 adults with cancers like lung, kidney, or liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed are being recruited.
Why investors are watching
CStone Pharmaceuticals is running a first-in-human trial of CS2009, a tri-specific antibody that targets three proteins involved in tumor growth and immune evasion, in patients with advanced solid tumors. For a small company, this early-stage readout matters because it is the first test of whether the drug is safe and shows any sign of shrinking tumors, which could validate its pipeline and future value.
If it works: If the trial shows acceptable safety and early signs of tumor control, CStone could advance CS2009 to later-stage studies and potentially attract partnership interest. A positive result would give the company a credible experimental drug in a competitive field.
If it fails: Early-phase cancer trials often fail because the drug proves too toxic or shows little benefit, and this one has a large planned enrollment of 800 participants, which adds complexity and cost. A poor safety or efficacy signal could set the program back and hurt the company's prospects.

Inclusion Criteria: * Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document. * Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures. * Age ≥ 18 years on the day of signing informed consent. Phase I: * Pathologically or cytologically confirmed, unresectable advanced solid tumors, including but not limited to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), gastric cancer (GC), ovarian cancer (OC), cervical cancer (CC), etc. * Failure of established standard of care for advanced disease, or no available standard of care. Phase II: * Pathologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable advanced solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), etc. * Participants with at least one measurable lesion as defined per RECIST v1.1 solid tumor. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. * Adequate organ function. * Fertile male participants and female participants of childbearing potential must be willing to use an effective method of birth control from providing signed consent and for 180 days after the last investigational product administration. * Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 7 days prior to the first dose of the investigational product. Exclusion Criteria: * History of a second malignancy active within the previous 3 years except for locally curable cancers that have been apparently cured. * Known primary central nervous system (CNS) tumor or solid tumor CNS metastasis that is either symptomatic, untreated, or requires therapy. * Presence of uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring repeated drainage within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of investigational product. * Receipt of systemic corticosteroid treatment or any other form of immune suppressing treatment within 7 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. * Active or prior history of definite inflammatory bowel disease. * History of (non-infectious) interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis that required steroids, or presence of active or suspected ILD/pneumonitis. * Active infections requiring systemic therapy within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of investigational product. * Positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or presence of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). * Active Hepatitis B or C infection. * Active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). * Major surgery, chemotherapy, definitive radiotherapy, target therapy, immunotherapy, or other anti-cancer therapy within 21 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. * Palliative radiotherapy within 14 days prior to the first dose of investigational product, or receipt of radioactive drug within 56 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. * Administration of live vaccine within 28 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. * History of allogeneic organ transplantation and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. * Receipt of antitumor Chinese herbal preparations or Chinese patent medicine within 7 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. * Receipt of any other investigational drugs within 21 days prior to the first dose in this trial. * History of hypersensitivity or idiosyncrasy to the excipients of the study drug or any monoclonal antibody. * Any toxic effects of prior therapy or surgical procedures unresolved to baseline severity or NCI-CTCAE Version 5.0 Grade ≤ 1. * Active alcohol or drug abuse. * Female participants who are pregnant or breastfeeding. * Other acute or chronic medical or psychiatric conditions that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration.
