Brief summary
The goal of this Phase II clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab (QL1706) combined with SOX chemotherapy (S-1 plus Oxaliplatin) in patients with previously untreated advanced or metastatic gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1、What is the objective response rate (ORR) of the combination of QL1706 and SOX chemotherapy? 2、What are the safety and tolerability of this combination therapy? Participants will: 1. Receive Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab (QL1706) via intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. 2. Receive SOX chemotherapy (Oxaliplatin via intravenous infusion on Day 1 and S-1 orally twice daily for 14 days) every 3 weeks for up to 6 cycles. 3. Continue maintenance therapy with QL1706 combined with S-1 after 6 cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. 4. Undergo tumor imaging assessments (CT or MRI) every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks, and then every 9 weeks thereafter to monitor the disease.
Detailed description
Study Design: This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm, exploratory Phase II clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab (QL1706) combined with SOX chemotherapy (S-1 and Oxaliplatin) as a first-line treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. The study aims to enroll approximately 32 eligible participants. Intervention and Treatment Regimen: Eligible participants will undergo a screening period of up to 3 weeks. Upon enrollment, subjects will receive the combination therapy in 3-week cycles as follows: Induction Phase (Cycles 1-6): Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab (QL1706): Administered intravenously at a fixed dose of 5 mg/kg on Day 1 of each cycle. Oxaliplatin: Administered intravenously at a dose of 130 mg/m² on Day 1 of each cycle. S-1 (Tegafur, Gimeracil, Oteracil): Administered orally twice daily (after breakfast and dinner) on Days 1-14, followed by a 7-day rest period. The dose is calculated based on body surface area (BSA): 40 mg/dose for BSA ≤1.25 m²; 50 mg/dose for BSA 1.25-1.5 m²; and 60 mg/dose for BSA \>1.5 m². Maintenance Phase (Cycle 7 onwards): After completing 6 cycles of the combination therapy, patients without disease progression or intolerable toxicity will continue with maintenance therapy consisting of QL1706 (5 mg/kg IV q3w) combined with S-1 (oral, same schedule) until disease progression, death, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Note: Oxaliplatin is discontinued in the maintenance phase. Assessments: Efficacy is assessed using tumor imaging (CT/MRI) according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. Tumor assessments are performed every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks and every 9 weeks thereafter. The primary endpoint is the Objective Response Rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints include Disease Control Rate (DCR), Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Overall Survival (OS), and 1-year PFS/OS rates. Safety is monitored throughout the study via adverse event reporting (NCI-CTCAE v5.0), laboratory tests, and physical examinations. Follow-up: After treatment discontinuation, patients will enter a safety follow-up period (90 days post-last dose) and a survival follow-up period, where survival status and subsequent anti-tumor therapies will be collected every 2 months.
Interventions
Administered via intravenous (IV) infusion at a dose of 5 mg/kg on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle.
Oxaliplatin: 130mg/m2, iv.gtt, single infusion, 21 days as a cycle, Day 1. Tigio: 40mg (body surface area(BSA)\<1.25m2), 50mg (BSA≥1.25m2, and BAS\<1.5m2), 60mg (BSA ≥1.5m2), p.o, bid, 21 days as a cycle, Day 1-14.
