About this study

Official title: Study of KN035 as Monotherapy in Patients With Advanced Mismatched Repair Deficient (dMMR) or Microsatellite Instability-High (MSI-H) Solid Tumors

In this study, patients with previously-treated locally-advanced or metastatic mismatched repair deficient (dMMR) or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and other solid tumors will be treated with KN035 monotherapy.

For colorectal cancer participants, who are required to have been previously treated with standard therapies , other solid tumor participants, who are required to have been previously treated with at least one line of systemic standard of care therapy.

Read the detailed description

Later-line therapies after failure of standard treatments for advanced colorectal and non-colorectal cancer patients are limited. Mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) played a role of positive predictive factor, which had been documented after the pembrolizumab and nivolumab trial were reported, for PD-1 blockade monotherapy in patients with advanced colorectal and non-colorectal cancers.

In this study, patients with previously-treated locally-advanced or metastatic mismatched repair deficient (dMMR) or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and other solid tumors will be treated with KN035 monotherapy.

For colorectal cancer participants, who are required to have been previously treated with standard therapies. For other solid tumor participants, who are required to have been previously treated with at least one line of systemic standard of care therapy.

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 years

  7. Assessment of the tolerability of KN035 as monotherapy in patients with advanced dMMR/MSI-H solid tumors.

    Tolerability of KN035 will be evaluated based on the incidence and severity of adverse events, which will be graded according to NCI CTCAE Version 4.03.

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 years

  8. Plasma Concentration of KN035

    Plasma concentration of KN035 at specified time points after administration, measured using a validated bioanalytical assay.

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 years

  9. Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) against KN035

    Detection of anti-drug antibody (ADA) against KN035 in subject serum samples using a validated ADA immunoassay.

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing KN035 in people with Solid Tumor, run by 3D Medicines (Sichuan) Co., Ltd. at 27 sites in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Up to approximately 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03667170, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Oct 2026.
