Brief summary
KN026-001 is a two-stage study (Open-label stage/Randomized stage). Open-label stage is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KN026 and chemotherapy when given together. Randomized stage is designed to evaluate the OS and PFS in patients receiving KN026 and chemotherapy compared to patients receiving placebo and chemotherapy.
Detailed description
KN026-001 is a two-stage randomized, multicenter, phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of KN026 in combination with chemotherapy in subjects with HER2-positive advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric cancer, including adenocarcinoma of the gastro-esophageal junction, who have failed first-line therapy. Stage 1 is an open-label, multicenter, phase Ⅱ study to evaluate the safety and ORR in subjects receiving KN026 in combination with chemotherapy. Stage 2 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase Ш study to evaluate the OS and PFS in subjects receiving KN026 in combination with chemotherapy compared to placebo in combination with chemotherapy.
