About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Trial of AK112 in Advanced Solid Tumor

This study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD) and anti-tumor activity of AK112, a PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody, as a single agent in adult subjects with advanced solid tumor malignancies. This trial is a two parts, phase I/II study. All patients are advanced solid tumor, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1. Part one is dose escalation phase,part two is dose expansion phase. The primary end point is safety. Secondary end points are objective response rate,progression-free survival and overall survival per RECIST1.1.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product.

    temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment

    Measured: From time ICF is signed until 90 days after last dose of AK112

  2. Number of participants with DLTs

    DLTs will be assessed during the first 4 weeks of treatment for dose-escalation phase and are defined as toxicities that meet pre-defined severity criteria, and assessed as having a suspected relationship to study drug, and unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications that occurs within the first cycle (4 weeks) of treatment.

    Measured: During the first four weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    The ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with confirmed CR or confirmed PR, based on RECIST Version 1.1

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Disease control rate (DCR)

    The DCR is defined as the proportion of subjects with CR, PR, or SD (subjects achieving SD will be included in the DCR if they maintain SD at 16 and 24 weeks respectively) based on RECIST Version 1.1.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  3. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival is defined as the time from the start of treatment with AK112 until the first documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  4. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time from the start of treatment with AK112 until death due to any cause.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing AK112 in people with Solid Tumor, Adult, run by Akeso at 1 site 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 9 inclusion and 13 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) (time frame: From time ICF is signed until 90 days after last dose of AK112). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04597541, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 10 Mar 2025.
