Brief summary

HF1K16 is an investigational pegylated liposome formulation of All-Trans Retinoic Acid (ATRA) for the induction of remission in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and for the treatment of solid tumors through targeting myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs).

Detailed description

Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (MDSCs) play important roles in constituting the immune suppressive environment promoting cancer development and progression. While previous studies had shown that all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) could induce MDSC differentiation and maturation, the very poor solubility and fast metabolism of the drug limited its applications as an immune-modulator for cancer immunotherapy HF1K16 is an investigational pegylated liposome formulation with great ATRA dose loading capacity and sustained drug release property. In preclinical studies, HF1K16 was shown to be able to remodel the host systemic immune homeostasis as well as modify tumor microenvironment (TME). It promotes MDSCs maturation into DCs and facilitates immune responses against cancer cells.

Inclusion criteria

1. Willing and able to provide the test of informed consent in writing. 2. Male or female, age \> 18 years and \< = 75 years. 3. The subjects had to be diagnosed by histology and/or cytology with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor. There is no effective standard of care or the patient is intolerant to the standard therapy. Cohort 5: The subjects must be diagnosed with glioma by histology, and the disease has relapsed or progressed after previous treatment, and there is no effective standard treatment or the subject is intolerant to standard treatment. 4. According to the definition of RECIST 1.1, participants must have at least one measurable lesion. Cohort 5: at least one lesion that can be measured in two dimensions is required ( RANO criteria). 5. Eastern group (ECOG) tumor physical state to 0 or 1. Cohort 5: According to Karnofsky physical fitness score ≥ 60. 6. Expected lifetime \> 12 weeks. 7. Men or women of childbearing age must agree to adopt effective contraception after signing the informed consent form until 180 days after the end of the study. Premenopausal women or those within 2 years after menopause are included.

Exclusion criteria

1. Patients received systemic antitumor therapy, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biologic therapy, endocrine therapy, or immunotherapy within 3 weeks prior to the first dose, except for the following: Nitrosoureas or mitomycin C within 6 weeks; Oral fluorouracils and small molecule drugs within 2 weeks or within 5 half-life periods of the drug (whichever is longer); Antitumour traditional Chinese medicine within 2 weeks. 2.
