Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Dose limiting toxicity (DLT)Up to 14 days after the first doseThe incidence and severity of adverse events (TEAE) during treatment were graded according to the National Cancer Institute Standard for Common Terminology for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, v5.0).
Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or Maximum dose (MAD)Up to 14 days after the first doseIn the dose increment stage, the highest dose whose estimated DLT rate is closest to the target DLT rate but does not exceed the upper bound of the equivalent interval of DLT rate is selected as MTD.
Adverse Events during Treatment (TEAE)Up to approximately 24 monthsTEAE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally emerging, or any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a pre-existing condition during the treatment of GNC-038. The type, frequency and severity of TEAE will be evaluated during the treatment of GNC-038.
Recommended dose for Phase II clinical studies (RP2D)Up to 14 days after the first doseThe RP2D is defined as the dose level chosen by the sponsor (in consultation with the investigators) for phase II study, based on safety, tolerability, efficacy, PK, and PD data collected during the dose escalation study of GNC-038.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
disease control rate (DCR)Up to approximately 24 monthsNumber of patients showing Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) based on RECIST for the best response. Number of patients showing Complete Response (CR, disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR, at least a 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameter of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum longest diameter) based on RECIST Criteria Version 1.0 (assessed by CT and/or MRI) for the best response.
progression-free survival (PFS)Up to approximately 24 monthsThe PFS is defined as the time from the participant's first dose of GNC-038 to the first date of either disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.
Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)Up to approximately 24 monthsAESI is an event of scientific and medical interest specific to the sponsor's product or research project.
CmaxUp to approximately 24 monthsMaximum serum concentration (Cmax) of GNC-038 will be investigated.
TmaxUp to approximately 24 monthsTime to maximum serum concentration (Tmax) of GNC-038 will be investigated.
AUC0-INFUp to approximately 24 monthsBlood concentration - Area under time line.
AUC0-TUp to approximately 24 monthsBlood concentration - Area under time line.
T1/2Up to approximately 24 monthsBlood concentration - Area under time line.
anti-drug antibody (ADA) in ⅠaUp to approximately 24 monthsFrequency and titer of anti-GNC-038 antibody (ADA).
DOR (Duration of Response)Up to approximately 24 monthsThe DOR for a responder is defined as the time from the participant's initial objective response to the first date of either disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.
