About this trial

The study is being conducted to explore the reasonable dosage and evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of HLX43 (Anti-PD-L1 ADC) in Patients with Recurrent/Metastatic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinomar (ESCC) Failed or Intolerance to Standard First-Line Therapy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Volunteer to participate in clinical research; To fully understand and understand this study and to sign the Informed Consent Form (ICF); Willing to follow and able to complete all test procedures;

The age of signing ICF is ≥ 18 years old and ≤ 75 years old;

Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) confirmed by histopathology or cytology;

Patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who have failed or are intolerant to prior first-line standard therapy (for patients with PD-L1 expression positive [CPS ≥1], first-line standard therapy is defined as platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor [ICI] therapy; for patients with PD-L1 expression negative [CPS <1], first-line standard therapy is defined as platinum-based chemotherapy). Intolerable toxicity refers to the occurrence of CTCAE grade ≥3 adverse events.;
