New cancer drug candidate SHR-4685 enters first human tests
NCT ID NCT07676903
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Aug 25, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called SHR-4685 in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The main goals are to check the drug's safety, find the best dose, and see how the body processes it. About 170 adults aged 18 to 75 with measurable tumors and good organ function are eligible to join.

Participants who have undergone major surgery other than diagnostic or biopsy procedures within 28 days prior to the first dose, or who are expected to undergo major surgery during the study; 7. Participants with active tuberculosis or a history of active tuberculosis infection within ≤48 weeks prior to screening, regardless of treatment; 8. Presence of any significant clinical or laboratory abnormality that, in the investigator's opinion, affects safety evaluation; 9. History of deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 6 months prior to screening; 10. Uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring clinical intervention; 11. Positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (HIV1/2 antibodies) with CD4+ T lymphocyte count \<350 cells/uL; or history of other acquired/congenital immunodeficiency diseases; or history of allogeneic bone marrow or solid organ transplantation; 12. Active chronic hepatitis B or active hepatitis C; 13. Known history of hypersensitivity to any component of the formulations used in the study; 14. Other factors, in the opinion of the investigator, that may affect the study results or result in forced halfway termination of this study, such as alcoholism, drug abuse, suffering from other serious diseases (including psychiatric disorders) requiring concomitant treatment, seriously abnormal laboratory test values, family or social factors and other conditions that may affect the safety of the patient or collection of study data.
