Can a new biologic drug shrink advanced melanoma tumors?
NCT ID NCT06081920
First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase II trial is testing an experimental drug called IBI363 in people with advanced melanoma that has worsened after at least one prior treatment. The study aims to see whether IBI363 is safe and can shrink tumors or slow their growth. About 180 participants will receive IBI363 alone, and researchers will track side effects, tumor response, and how long any benefits last.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- an experimental biologic drug called IBI363
- What this could lead to
- If IBI363 proves safe and shrinks tumors, it could offer a new treatment option for advanced melanoma that has stopped responding to standard therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early phase II trial with only 180 participants, so results may not apply broadly. IBI363 may cause side effects or fail to control the cancer.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic melanoma (according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition staging III-IV). Progression or recurrence after at least first-line systemic standard treatment. 2. At least one measurable lesion (target lesion) per RECIST v1.1. 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0 or 1. 4. Life expectancy of 3 months or more. 5. Female subjects of childbearing age or male subjects whose partners are female subjects of childbearing age agree to strictly adopt effective contraceptive measures throughout the entire treatment period and 6 months after the treatment period. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Pregnant or lactating subjects, or subjects who plan to conceive before, during, or within 6 months after the last dose of the study drug. 2. Active or symptomatic central nervous system metastasis. 3. At baseline (within 7 days before the first administration of the study drug), there were any hematological abnormalities as follows: hemoglobin\<90 g/L; Absolute neutrophil count (ANC)\<1.5 × 109/L; Platelet count\<100 × 109/L. 4. At baseline (within 7 days prior to first administration), there were any serum biochemical abnormalities as follows: Total bilirubin\>1.5 × ULN; AST or ALT\>3 × ULN; If it is tumor liver metastasis, AST or ALT\>5.0 × ULN; Serum creatinine\>1.5 × ULN or CCr\<45 mL/min, using the Cockcroft Fault formula to calculate CCr (using actual body weight); Albumin\<30 g/L. 5. At baseline (within 7 days before first administration), there were any coagulation parameter abnormalities as follows: INR\>1.5 × ULN (\>3 if receiving anticoagulant therapy with stabilizer dosage) × ULN); PTT (or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT))\>1.5 × ULN (\>3 if receiving anticoagulant therapy with stabilizer dosage) × ULN). 6. History of active thrombosis, deep vein thrombosis, or pulmonary embolism within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of the investigational drug, unless sufficient treatment has been given and the investigator believes that the condition is stable. 7. Uncontrolled bleeding or known tendency to bleed.
