About this trial

This study is a prospective, single arm phase II clinical trial ,aimed at exploring the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of anti-PD-1 and VEGF bispecific antibody Ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment of relapsed or metastatic thymic cancer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Untreated metastatic or recurrent inoperable thymic cancer patients at the initial stage; All patients need to undergo baseline PET/CT (or neck, chest, upper abdominal CT+cranial MR) for clinical staging.

The patient's age is ≥ 18 years old, with no gender restrictions.

Pathological diagnosis of thymic carcinoma through cytology/histology.

Expected survival period ≥ 3 months.

Disqualifiers

Patients with thymoma component suspected by pathological diagnosis (only thymic cancer patients were enrolled).

The patient has or is suspected of having autoimmune disease. Note: Patients with vitiligo, type I diabetes, or Hashimoto's thyroiditis who have hypothyroidism but only need hormone replacement therapy can be included in the study when there is no obvious sign of recurrence.

Patients need to receive systemic cortisol treatment (>10mg prednisolone [or equivalent dose] / day) or use other immunosuppressive drugs within 14 days after enrollment. Note: inhaled or topical corticosteroids, or adrenal hormone replacement therapy (>10mg prednisolone [or equivalent dose] / day) can be accepted for patients without obvious autoimmune disease.

Patients with grade 3-4 interstitial lung disease.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Ivonescimab Combined With Chemotherapy

    Drug

    Ivonescimab injection is an IgG1 subtype humanized bispecific antibody targeting human vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and programmed death protein-1 (PD-1). It can bind to VEGF-A and PD-1 at the same time, and competitively block the interaction between VEGF-A, PD-1 and their ligands, exerting antitumor activity.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Progression free survival at 6 months(PFS 6m)

Patients who did not achieve PFS at 6 months accounted for the proportion of all patients.

Time frame
Within one year after starting treatment.

Secondary outcomes

1

Progression free survival (PFS)

The time interval from the first dose of study medication to the first record of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurred first.

Time frame
Within two year after the first treatment
2

Objective response rate(ORR)

ORR, per RECIST 1.1 calculated as the proportion of patients with a best overall response defined as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR).

Time frame
Within one year after starting treatment.
3

Disease control rate (DCR)

The proportion of subjects who achieved the best total efficacy was to confirm CR or PR or SD (according to iRECIST).

Time frame
Within one year after starting treatment.
4

duration of remission (DOR)

The time from the first record of confirmed remission (CR or PR) to the first record of disease progression (according to irecist) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

Time frame
Within one year after starting treatment.
