A Clinical Study of SI-B001 in Combination With Paclitaxel in the Treatment of Recurrent and Metastatic HNSCC

Phase 2

Recruiting

• Conditions: Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
• Interventions: Drug: SI-B001; Drug: Paclitaxel

• Registration Number: NCT05054439
• Lead Sponsor: Sichuan Baili Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

Brief Summary

This multi-center, open label phase II clinical study is performed in patients with relapsed metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (non-nasopharyngeal carcinoma) progressed on prior 1st or 2nd line with anti-PD-1 mab ± platinum-based chemotherapy. This study is investigating the safety and efficacy of SI-B001 at optimal combination dose with paclitaxel in patients.

Inclusion Criteria

1. The participants could understand and sign the informed consent form and must participate voluntarily.

2. No gender limit;

3. Age: ≥18 years old

4. Locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck confirmed by histology or pathology as recurrent metastatic or without indications of radical local treatment;

5. Patients who failed or were intolerant to previous anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, platinum-containing chemotherapy or anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody monotherapy Treatment failure of PD-1 refers to disease progression during or after PD-1 treatment;

   Failure of platinum-containing chemotherapy refers to:

   1. disease progression during or after platinum-containing chemotherapy;
   2. recurrence or disease progression within 6 months of platinum-containing multi-mode therapy;

6. Previously received only ≤ 2-line treatment for recurrent and metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck;

7. Agree to provide tumor tissue samples (FFPE block or 10 unstained sections of 5μm size) or fresh tissue samples that have been archival within 1 year of primary or metastatic lesion. If the patient fails to provide them, they can be included after the investigator's judgment;

8. There must be at least one measurable lesion in accordance with the RECIST V1.1 definition. Tumor lesions located in the area of previous radiotherapy or other local regional treatment sites are generally not measurable unless there is definite progression of the lesion or the lesion persists three months after radiotherapy;

9. Physical fitness ECOG score 0 or 1;

10. Toxicity of previous antitumor therapy has returned to ≤1 as defined by NCI-CTCAE V5.0 (except for toxicity that the investigators judged to be of no safety risk, such as hair loss, grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity, and stabilized hypothyroidism after hormone replacement therapy);

11. Organ function levels must meet the following requirements and meet the following standards:

    1. Bone marrow function: absolute neutrophil count (ANC)≥1.5×10*9/L, platelet count ≥100×10*9/L, hemoglobin ≥90 g/L;
    2. Liver function: Total bilirubin TBIL≤1.5×ULN (total bilirubin ≤3×ULN in Subjects with Gilbert's syndrome, liver cancer or liver metastasis), AST and ALT ≤2.5×ULN in patients without liver metastasis, AST and ALT ≤5.0×ULN in patients with liver metastasis;
    3. Renal function: creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5×ULN, or creatinine clearance (Ccr) ≥50 mL/min (according to Cockcroft and Gault formula);
    4. Urine routine / 24-hour protein quantification: qualitative urine protein ≤1+ (if qualitative urine protein ≥2+, 24-hour protein < 1g can be included in the group);
    5. Cardiac function: left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50%;
    6. Coagulation function: International standardized ratio (INR) ≤1.5×ULN, and activated partial thrombin time (APTT) ≤1.5×ULN;

12. Eligible patients (male and female) who are fertile must agree to use a reliable contraceptive method (hormonal or barrier method or abstinence, etc.) with their partner during the trial and for at least 6 months after the last medication; women of childbearing age must have a negative blood or urine pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the first use of the study drug.
