New drug HLX43 aims to shrink Hard-to-Treat gynecologic cancers

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Volunteer to participate in clinical research; To fully understand and understand this study and to sign the Informed Consent Form (ICF); Willing to follow and able to complete all test procedures; 2. The age of signing ICF is ≥ 18 years old and ≤ 75 years old; 3. Cohort 1: Metastatic or recurrent cervical cancer including squamous cell, adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous histology confirmed by histopathology or cytology. Cohort 2: Histologically confirmed high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. 4. Cohort 1: Previous failure or progression of standard systemic therapy for cervical cancer (For patients with PD-L1 expression positive \[CPS≥1\], the standard therapy is defined as platinum-based chemotherapy in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy; for patients with PD-L1 expression negative \[CPS\<1\], the standard therapy is defined as platinum-based chemotherapy), or intolerability toxicity (CTCAE≥3 adverse events), or contraindications to standard therapy. Cohort 2: Ovarian cancer patients with platinum-resistant disease: If the patient has previously received only first-line platinum-based chemotherapy, platinum resistance is defined as having received at least 4 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy, with the tumor showing a response to platinum-based chemotherapy (best tumor assessment being complete remission/partial remission), and the time from the last platinum-based chemotherapy to tumor progression being \>3 months and ≤6 months. If the patient has previously received multiple lines of platinum-based chemotherapy, platinum resistance is defined as disease progression occurring during the last line of platinum-based chemotherapy treatment or within 6 months after the last platinum-based chemotherapy. 5. Within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of the medication, at least one measurable target lesion must be evaluated according to the RECIST v1.1 criteria; 6. Tumor tissue should be provided as much as possible for an evaluable PD-L1 expression result at Screening period； 7. Before the initial administration of the study drug, there should be at least a 3-week interval or 5 times the half-life of the last cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or biological therapy, whichever is shorter. There should be at least a 2-week interval from the previous small molecule targeted therapy, at least a 1-week interval from traditional Chinese medicine treatment with antitumor indications or minor surgery. Additionally, treatment-related adverse events (AEs) should have recovered to NCI-CTCAE grade ≤ 1 (except for grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity and alopecia)； 8. The ECOG physical performance score of 0-1 in the week prior to randomization； 9. Expected survival ≥ 3 months； 10. Laboratory tests within the previous week confirm adequate organ function (within 14 days prior to the first dose of medication, without receiving interventions such as blood transfusions or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor)； 11. Female subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use at least one highly effective method of contraception during the trial and for at least 6 months after the last dose of the study drug. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to enrollment. Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of any second malignant tumor within the first 2 years prior to randomization; 2. Subjects who are preparing for or have previously received an organ or bone marrow transplant; 3. Symptomatic, untreated, or progressively worsening central nervous system (CNS) or leptomeninges metastases; 4. After appropriate intervention, uncontrollable pleural effusion, pericardial effusion or ascites still need to be drained frequently; 5. Present with grade ≥1 radiation pneumonia as defined by RTOG/EORTC; A history of interstitial lung disease (ILD) or imaging findings during screening that suggest such disease is suspected; Or there are lung diseases leading to clinical severe respiratory impairment; 6. Subjects exhibit poorly controlled cardiovascular clinical symptoms or diseases, including but not limited to: (1) NYHA class II or above heart failure, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 50%; (2) unstable angina; (3) myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident within the last 6 months (excluding lacunar infarction, minor ischemic stroke, or transient ischemic attack); (4) uncontrolled arrhythmias (including QTc interval ≥ 450 ms for males, ≥ 470 ms for females) (QTc interval calculated by Fridericia's formula); (5) poorly controlled hypertension (systolic blood pressure \> 150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mmHg despite active treatment); 7. Previous occurrence of adverse events leading to permanent discontinuation of immunotherapy; or A history of ≥ Grade 2 immune-related pneumonia or myocarditis; 8. Active or suspected autoimmune disease. Patients with autoimmune-related hypothyroidism who are undergoing thyroid hormone replacement therapy are permitted to participate in the study; patients with controlled Type 1 diabetes mellitus receiving insulin therapy are also allowed to participate in the study; 9. Received systemic corticosteroids (prednisone \>10 mg/day or an equivalent dose of similar drugs) or other immunosuppressive treatments within 14 days prior to the first dose; with the following exceptions: use of topical, ophthalmic, intra-articular, intranasal, and inhaled corticosteroids; short-term use of corticosteroids for prophylactic treatment during situations such as the use of contrast agents; 10. Within the 2 weeks prior to randomization, there is the presence of an active systemic infectious disease requiring intravenous antibiotic treatment; 11. Live vaccinations or attenuated live vaccinations should not be administered within 4 weeks prior to the initial dosing. Administration of inactivated viral vaccines for seasonal influenza is permitted; 12. Used strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP2D6 or CYP3A within 2 weeks prior to randomization; 13. Known history of severe allergic reactions to macromolecular protein preparations/monoclonal antibodies, or allergy to components of the trial drug formulation; Previously received ADC drugs with topoisomerase I inhibitors as toxins. 14. Active tuberculosis; 15. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; 16. Active Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C virus (HBV or HCV) infection or HBV/HCV co-infection; 17. Pregnant or lactating women; 18. The researcher deems that the subject has any other factors that make them unsuitable for participation in this trial.
