About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Open-Label, Phase 1/2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of YL201 in Patients With Selected Advanced Solid Tumors

This is A Multicenter, Open-Label, Phase 1/2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of YL201 in Patients with Selected Advanced Solid Tumors. The study will include 2 parts: Phase 1 dose expansion stage (Part 1) followed by a Phase 2 stage with expanded sample size (Part 2).

Part 1 will estimate the RP2D in dose expansion cohorts of patients with not linited to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), sarcoma, ductal adenocarcinoma of pancreas (PDAC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), biliary tract cancer (BTC), etc..

Part 2 will include patients with selected advanced solid tumor types enrolled at the RP2D to further assess the efficacy and safety of YL201.

    TTR: defined as the time interval from the date of the first dose of study drug to the date of the first documentation of objective response (CR or PR).

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

  11. Evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) for patients assessed using RECIST version 1.1

    PFS: defined as the time interval from the date of the first dose of study drug to the date of first documentation of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

  12. Evaluate the overall survival (OS) for patients

    OS: defined as the time interval from the date of the first dose of study drug to the date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

  13. Evaluate the radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) for patients with prostate cancer

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

  14. Evaluate the time to PSA progression (TTPP) for patients with prostate cancer

    Defined as the time from the first investigational drug administration to the first recording of PSA progression.

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

  15. Evaluate the PSA duration of response (PDoR) for patients with prostate cancer

    Defined as the time from PSA reduction of ≥50% compared with baseline to PSA progression.

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

  16. Evaluate the best PSA response for patients with prostate cancer

    Defined as the maximum percentage of PSA changes at any time during the study.

    Measured: Approximately within 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing YL201 for Injection in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by MediLink Therapeutics (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. at 52 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 9 inclusion and 23 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 12 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 52 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 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?

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?

Evaluate the AEs as characterized by type, frequency, severity, timing, seriousness and relationship to study treatment (time frame: By the global end of trial date, approximately within 36 months). The study lists 3 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 NCT06057922, 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 12 Mar 2026.
