Phase II: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of IAE0972 combined with chemotherapyselected by doctors for R/M HNSCC/NPC after failure or progress of ≤2-line systemtherapy, and to determine the MTD of combined therapy.Phase III: According to the RECIST 1.1, the effectiveness of IAE0972 combined withchemotherapy regimen chosen by doctors compared with placebo plus chemotherapy regimenchosen by doctors was evaluated through OS in patients with R/M NPC who failed orprogressed after treatment with ≤2-line system.
The Phase II is the dose escalation study of IAE0972 combined with the chemotherapy
chosen by doctors, aiming at evaluating the safety, tolerance and preliminary
effectiveness for patients with R/M HNSCC/NPC;Phase III aims to evaluate the
effectiveness and safety of IAE0972+ doctors' chemotherapy compared with doctors'
chemotherapy in patients with R/M NPC who have failed or progressed after treatment with
≤2-line system through OS.In the study, the adverse events and reactions were evaluated
by clinical observation, vital signs monitoring and laboratory examination, and related
samples such as PK and ADA were collected. Taking RECIST 1.1 as the tumor evaluation
standard, after the first infusion of the study drug, every two cycles (±7 days, before
the next cycle of administration, and the day of administration in this cycle is defined
as D1 of the current cycle), the subjects were evaluated for tumor until the disease
progressed, new anti-tumor treatment was started, the researchers judged that it was not
suitable to continue to participate (such as intolerable adverse reactions), lost the
visit, and voluntarily withdrew.When the subject withdraws from or terminates the
treatment (+7 days), the subject should be visited before starting the new anti-tumor
treatment (except death and lost visit), and relevant laboratory tests and ADA sample
collection should be carried out; After that, their OS was followed up by telephone every
12 weeks (±7 days) until they were lost or died.
