本研究是一项开放标签、多中心临床II期研究,旨在评估斯鲁利单抗单药或联合HLX04在晚期肝细胞癌患者中的安全性、耐受性和疗效。考虑到数据成熟度,本次刊文仅披露联合疗法在既往经受过治疗患者中的数据(即A、B两组)。患者每2周静脉输注一次斯鲁利单抗3 mg/kg联合不同剂量的HLX04 5 mg/kg(A组)或10 mg/kg(B组)。主要终点为安全性和耐受性,次要终点为客观缓解率(ORR)、总生存期(OS)、无进展生存期(PFS)、持续缓解时间(DoR)等。截止到2021年4月8日,本研究中A(n=20)、B(n=21)组斯鲁利单抗联合贝伐珠单抗具有良好的安全性和耐受性,经IRRC评估的ORR分别为30.0%(95% CI:11.9,54.3)、14.3%(95% CI:3.0,36.3),A组中位PFS为2.2个月(95% CI:1.4,5.5),B组中位PFS为4.1个月(95% CI:1.5,NE)。该研究结果的安全性与抗PD-1单抗或贝伐珠单抗单药以及阿替利珠单抗联合贝伐珠单抗在既往未经受治疗的晚期HCC患者中的安全性研究结果一致,并相较于现有同类头部抗PD-(L)1产品显示出相似或更好的疗效。该研究数据可为抗PD-1单抗联合抗血管生成药物在HCC二线及以上的临床实践提供依据。目前,公司H药联合贝伐珠单抗以及联合HLX07(抗EGFR单抗)一线治疗晚期肝细胞癌患者的II期临床试验申请已经获国家药监局批准。
H药斯鲁利单抗是复宏汉霖首个自主研制的创新型单抗药,目前已获批用于治疗微卫星高度不稳定(MSI-H)实体瘤。此外,H药联合化疗一线治疗鳞状非小细胞肺癌(sqNSCLC)、广泛期小细胞肺癌(ES-SCLC)和食管鳞状细胞癌(ESCC)的NDA已获得NMPA受理。以H药为基础,公司在全球开展多元化的肿瘤免疫联合疗法,并充分运用自有管线覆盖肿瘤特异性靶点、抗血管生成靶点和肿瘤免疫靶点等,助力H药与单抗、化疗等治疗手段开展联合治疗。以临床需求为导向,公司就H药在消化道肿瘤和肺癌领域进行了差异化、多维度布局,适应症广泛覆盖肺癌、肝细胞癌、食管鳞癌、头颈鳞癌和胃癌等高发大癌种,在全球范围内累计入组逾3100名受试者。
未来,复宏汉霖也将推动更多创新产品的临床研究,积极开展联合治疗方案、创新靶点双特异性抗体以及抗体偶联药物(ADC)等产品的布局,期待早日为更多患者带来质高价优的生物药。

Phase 2 Study of the PD-1 Inhibitor Serplulimab Plus the Bevacizumab Biosimilar HANBEITAI in Patients with Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Published in Liver Cancer
Recently, Liver Cancer (IF 12.43), a prestigious journal in hepatology, published the phase 2 study of HANSIZHUANG (serplulimab) plus HANBEITAI (bevacizumab, HLX04) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Serplulimab plus HLX04 demonstrated a manageable safety profile and favorable antitumor activity in patients with previously treated advanced HCC.
This open-label, multi-centre phase 2 study aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of serplulimab in combination with HLX04 for patients with advanced HCC. Given the data maturity, this publication only discloses results from patients treated with serplulimab plus HLX04 who had received prior systemic therapy (i.e., groups A and B). Patients received intravenous infusions of serplulimab 3 mg/kg and intravenous infusions of HLX04 at either 5 mg/kg (group A) or 10 mg/kg (group B) every 2 weeks. The primary endpoints were safety and tolerability. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and duration of response (DoR), among others.
As of April 8, 2021, results from both groups (group A, n=20; group B, n=21) demonstrated that serplulimab plus HLX04 was safe and well-tolerated. As assessed by an independent radiological review committee (IRRC), the ORR was 30.0% (95% CI, 11.9–54.3) in group A and 14.3% (95% CI, 3.0–36.3) in group B. Median PFS was 2.2 months (95% CI, 1.4–5.5) in group A and 4.1 months (95% CI, 1.5–NE) in group B. The safety profile for serplulimab plus HLX04 in this study were consistent with the safety profiles of the two drug classes and with that of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab in previously untreated patients with advanced HCC. The efficacy outcomes for serplulimab plus HLX04 were similar or better compared with other anti-PD-(L)1 therapies. These results provide evidence for the use of anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) in combination with anti-angiogenic agents in the second- or later-line treatment of HCC in clinical practice. An investigational new drug application for a phase 2 trial of serplulimab in combination with HLX04 and HLX07 (innovative anti-EGFR mAb) for the first-line treatment of unresectable or metastatic HCC has been approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA).
HANSIZHUANG (serplulimab) is the first innovative mAb developed by Henlius. It has been approved by the NMPA for the treatment of microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) solid tumours. The NDAs of the first-line treatment for squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC), extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) have been accepted by the NMPA. Henlius actively promotes HANSIZHUANG in conjunction with in-house products of the company such as tumour-specific target, angiogenesis target, immunotherapeutic target, etc. and chemotherapy drugs to conduct immune combination therapies. Underpinned by the patient-centric strategy, Henlius has carried out a differentiated and multi-dimensional layout in the field of gastrointestinal cancer and lung cancer, covering a wide variety of indications, such as lung cancer, HCC, ESCC, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and gastric cancer, etc. Up to date, more than 3,100 subjects have been enrolled worldwide for HANSIZHUANG clinical trials.
As Henlius moves forward, it will continue to conduct clinical studies on more innovative products, proactively exploring immuno-oncology combination therapy, bispecific antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), with the aim of bringing affordable and high-quality innovative biologics to patients around the world.
