New drug targets Hard-to-Treat cancers in early trial
NCT ID NCT07260513
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase study tests a new drug called GH2616 in about 126 people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The drug works by blocking a protein (KIF18A) that helps cancer cells divide, which may slow or stop tumor growth. The main goals are to check safety, find the best dose, and see if the drug can shrink tumors.

Inclusion Criteria: \- 1.Female, aged ≥18 years. 2.Assessed by the investigator as suitable for participation in this study in the following two aspects: a. The subject fully understands the requirements of this study and voluntarily signs a written informed consent form; b. Can comply with the medication requirements of this study and all study-related procedures and assessments. 3.Tumor types meeting the following conditions: Phase Ia: Subjects with relapsed or metastatic advanced gynecological tumors and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) confirmed by histology or cytology and laboratory-confirmed functional loss mutation of TP53, including but not limited to high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS), endometrial cancer (EC) and other gynecological tumors, and TNBC. Phase Ib: Subjects with relapsed or metastatic advanced gynecological tumors and TNBC confirmed by histology or cytology and laboratory-confirmed functional loss mutation of TP53 and genomic doubling (WGD) characteristics, including but not limited to HGSOC, UCS, EC and other gynecological tumors, and TNBC. Specific requirements for each tumor type are as follows: 1. High-grade serous ovarian cancer: Platinum-resistant ovarian cancer that has progressed/relapsed after at least one line of platinum-containing chemotherapy, or platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer that has progressed/relapsed after at least two lines of platinum-containing chemotherapy. The definition of "platinum-resistant" is: the interval between the discovery of tumor recurrence and the last chemotherapy of the previous platinum-containing regimen is \<6 months, or the tumor progresses during initial treatment or recurrence treatment. The definition of "platinum-sensitive" is: the interval between the discovery of tumor recurrence and the last chemotherapy is ≥6 months. The interval should be calculated from the date of the last platinum drug treatment to the date of disease progression. 2. Uterine carcinosarcoma: Progressed/relapsed after at least one line of platinum-containing chemotherapy. 3. Endometrial cancer: Progressed/relapsed after at least one line of platinum-containing chemotherapy. 4. TNBC: Progressed/relapsed after at least one line of chemotherapy. Note: Subjects receiving adjuvant therapy who have disease progression within less than 6 months after the end of treatment can be considered as having received first-line therapy. 4.Expected survival time ≥ 12 weeks. 5.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score 0 or 1. 6.According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 there is at least 1 measurable lesion. Lesions previously treated with local therapy such as radiotherapy are not considered measurable lesions unless there is definite progression after local therapy. 7.Subjects have sufficient vital organ function at screening (requirement: no blood transfusion, no use of hematopoietic stimulators or human albumin preparations within 14 days before screening), specifically defined as follows: 1. Blood routine: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 × 10⁹/L; Platelet count (PLT) ≥100 × 10⁹/L or greater than the laboratory normal value; Hemoglobin (HGB) ≥90 g/L (9 g/dL). 2. Liver function: Serum total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN). For subjects with liver metastasis or confirmed Gilbert syndrome, TBIL ≤ 3 × ULN. For subjects without liver metastasis, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × ULN. For subjects with liver metastasis, ALT or AST ≤ 5 × ULN. 3. Renal function: Creatinine clearance (CLCr) calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault method (Appendix 3: Creatinine Clearance Calculation Formula) ≥ 60 mL/min. 4. Coagulation function: Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and international normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 2 × ULN (indicators of subjects receiving anticoagulant therapy are within the therapeutic range). 5. Cardiac function standard: Echocardiogram (ECHO) shows left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 50%. 8.Serum pregnancy test of female subjects of childbearing age within 7 days before the first use of the study drug must be negative; eligible subjects with fertility must agree to use reliable contraceptive methods (hormonal or barrier methods or abstinence, etc.) with their partners during the trial and for at least 3 months after the last dose. A subject with fertility is defined as sexually mature and having biological potential fertility. Exclusion Criteria: * 1.Received chemotherapy within 21 days before the first administration of GH2616 tablets, or received radiotherapy, endocrine therapy, immunotherapy and other anti-tumor drug treatments within 28 days before, and special regulations are made for the following anti-tumor drugs or treatments: 1. Nitrosourea or mitomycin C: within 6 weeks before the first use of the study drug; 2. Oral fluoropyrimidines, small molecule targeted drugs, and traditional Chinese medicine with anti-tumor indications: within 5 half-lives or 14 days before the first use of the study drug (whichever is shorter); 3. Local palliative radiotherapy: within 14 days before the first use of the study drug. 2.Received other unmarketed clinical research drugs or treatments within 28 days before the first administration. 3.Acute toxicity caused by previous anti-tumor treatment before the first administration has not recovered to ≤ Grade 1 of the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 5.0 or the baseline level specified in the inclusion criteria (except for toxicity such as alopecia and fatigue that the investigator judges to have no safety risk). 4.Mean corrected QT interval (QTc, using Fridericia's correction formula) \> 470 ms in resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) examination (ECG testing frequency can be increased if there are clinical indications). Various clinically significant arrhythmias, conduction, and resting ECG morphological abnormalities, such as complete left bundle branch block, third-degree heart block, etc. Various factors that may increase the risk of QTc prolongation or arrhythmic events, such as Class III heart failure, refractory hypokalemia, congenital long QT syndrome, and first-degree relatives with long QT syndrome in the family history. 5.Have persistent or active infection, including: Active hepatitis B (hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) positive and hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBV-DNA) \> 1000 IU/ml or 2000 cps/ml\]; Patients infected with hepatitis C virus (defined as positive HCV antibody and HCV-RNA \> upper limit of normal). 6.Symptomatic or active progressive central nervous system (CNS) metastasis. 7.Uncontrolled concurrent diseases, such as: 1.
