Treat Malignant Ascites Caused by Gastrointestinal or Ovarian Cancer With M701 Bispecific Antibody
- Registration Number
- NCT06266091
- Lead Sponsor
- Wuhan YZY Biopharma Co., Ltd.
- Brief Summary
A Phase II, Randomized, Open-label, Controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of M701 in treating Patients with Malignant Ascites Caused by Gastrointestinal or Ovarian Cancer combined with Systemic Therapy.
- Detailed Description
The phase II study is a controlled, open-label trial designed to assess the effectiveness and safety of M701 intra-peritoneal infusion for controlling malignant ascites in patients with gastrointestinal and ovarian cancer who are also receiving systemic therapy.
A total of 80 patients with malignant ascites caused by gastrointestinal or ovarian cancer will be randomly assigned to two treatment arms in a 1:1 ratio. These patients must have experienced disease progression or intolerance after receiving at least two lines of systemic therapy. Both treatment arms will receive the systemic therapy, but the test arm will additionally receive M701 intra-peritoneal infusion, while the control arm will undergo paracentesis only.
The primary endpoint of the study will be the puncture-free survival, which evaluates the efficacy of M701 in controlling malignant ascites. Secondary endpoints include the objective response rate (ORR) of malignant ascites, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), quality of life (QOL), and safety profiles. The number of EpCAM-positive cells in the malignant ascites will be measured using flow cytometry before and after treatment with M701.

- Other severe medical conditions that may limit the patient's participation in the trial。
- Impaired cardiac function with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 3 or 4.
- Occurrence of complete intestinal obstruction within 30 days before the first dose, or diagnosis of incomplete intestinal obstruction deemed unsuitable for participation in the trial based on symptoms and signs as determined by the investigator.
- Inability to adequately drain ascites due to objective reasons (including loculated ascites).
- Confirmed portal vein obstruction.
- History of immunodeficiency, including positive HIV test.
- Active hepatitis B virus infection, active hepatitis C virus infection, active syphilis, or positive HIV antibody.
- Pregnant or lactating women.
- Patients with fertility requirements during or within 6 months after treatment.

Group Intervention Description Control group paracentesis Patients in the control group will undergo paracentesis on Day 1 and Day 18. If necessary, they may receive additional paracentesis during this period. Additionally, these patients will receive systemic therapy as determined by the investigator. M701 group M701 M701 will be administered via intra-peritoneal infusion following sufficient drainage of malignant ascites. The treatment regimen consists of a leading dose of 50μg on Day 1, followed by three infusions of the full dose of 400 μg M701 on Days 4, 11, and 18. If well tolerated, patients will continue to receive M701 infusions every 2 weeks as maintenance treatment. Additionally, these patients will receive systemic therapy as determined by the investigator.
