About this trial

This is the first in human trial clinical study of AST-201 in patients with GPC3-positive advanced solid tumors. This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic properties, and preliminary efficacy of AST-201 across various tumor types.

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male and female aged ≥19 years

Histologically and/or cytologically diagnosed as the advanced recurrent solid tumor

GPC3-positive confirmed by IHC test

At least 1 measurable or non-measurable but evaluable lesion as defined per RECIST v1.1 (modified RECIST for hepatocellular carcinoma)

Disqualifiers

Subjects with ischemic heart disease

Subjects with anti-tumor treatment within 4 weeks

Subjects with comorbidities such as uncontrolled hypertension, heart failure, etc.

Pregnant or potentially pregnant and lactating woman

Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT)

Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as any treatment-related Grade 3 or higher adverse event, or other clinically significant toxicity occurring during the first cycle (4 weeks), that meets the protocol-defined criteria for dose limitation, based on the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), version \[5.0\].
