Clinical Trial Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation phase I study to assess the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of KN046 in participants with all advanced solid tumors who are not able to have current standard anti-tumor therapies. The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or a biological effective dose (BED), to characterise the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD) and anti-tumor activity of KN046 as a single agent in adult participants with advanced solid tumors

6. Palliative radiotherapy with a wide field of radiation within 4 weeks or radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation for palliation within 2 weeks of the 1st dose of study treatment.

7. Prior treatment or with sequential monotherapy with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1/PD-L agents.

8. Patients who have received monotherapy with PD-L1 / PD-1, CTLA4 or other antibodies and had intolerable toxicity or required steroids to manage toxicity.

9. History of autoimmune or inflammatory disorders.

11. Suspected latent tuberculosis infection, confirmed by Mantoux test and a chest x-ray.

12. Any unresolved toxicity NCI CTCAE (National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) Grade =2 from previous anticancer therapy with the exception of alopecia, vitiligo, and the laboratory values defined in the inclusion criteria

13. Any factors that increase the risk of QT (ECG interval measured from the onset of the QRS complex to the end of the T wave) interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) prolongation or risk of arrhythmic events (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia, congenital long QT syndrome, family history of long QT syndrome or unexplained sudden death under 40 years of age) or mean QTc>470 msec.

14. Positive blood screen for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C antibody (HCV Ab), or human immunodeficiency virus 1/2 antibody (HIV 1/2 Ab).

15. History of severe allergic reactions to any unknown allergens or to parenteral administered recombinant protein product.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of participants with dose limiting toxicity (DLT)	An DLT is defined as a =Grade 3 drug-related adverse event occurring within the first cycle (28 days) of dosing (excluding tumor flare causing local pain at sites of known or suspected tumor, localized rash, or a transient =Grade 3 infusion reaction) using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE).	During the first cycle (4 weeks) of treatment.
Secondary	Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)	An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered KN046 and/or pharmaceutical product(s) temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment.	From the time of informed consent signed through 90 days after the last dose of KN046,up to 2 years.
Secondary	Objective response rate (ORR)	The ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with confirmed CR or confirmed PR, based on RECIST Version 1.1.	From first dose of KN046 through 90 days after last dose of KN046, up to 2 years.
Secondary	Duration of response (DoR)	Duration of response is defined as the duration from the first documentation of objective response to the first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.	up to 2 years.
Secondary	Progression-free survival (PFS)	Progression-free survival is defined as the time from the start of treatment with KN046 until the first documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.	From first dose of KN046 through 90 days after last dose of KN046, up to 2 years.
Secondary	Clinical benefit rate (CBR)	Clinical benefit rate is defined as the percentage of patients who have achieved complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) to KN046 intervention.	From first dose of KN046 through 90 days after last dose of KN046, up to 2 years.
Secondary	Area under the curve (AUC) of KN046	The endpoints for assessment of PK of KN046 include serum concentrations of KN046 at different timepoints after KN046 administration.	From first dose of KN046 through 90 days after last dose of KN046, up to 9 months.
Secondary	Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of KN046	The endpoints for assessment of PK of KN046 include serum concentrations of KN046 at different timepoints after KN046 administration.	From first dose of KN046 through 90 days after last dose of KN046, up to 9 months.
Secondary	Minimum observed plasma concentration (Ctrough) of KN046 at steady state	The endpoints for assessment of PK of KN046 include serum concentrations of KN046 at different timepoints after KN046 administration.	From first dose of KN046 through 90 days after last dose of KN046, up to 9 months.
Secondary	Number of subjects who develop detectable anti-drug antibodies (ADAs)	The immunogenicity of KN046 will be assessed by summarizing the number of subjects who develop detectable anti-drug antibodies (ADAs).	Assessed before KN046 infusion in Cycle 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and at the mandatory Safety Follow-up Visit, maxium up to 2 years.
Secondary	Number of subjects who develop detectable neutralizing ADA (NADA)	The neutralizing ADA will be assessed by summarizing the number of subjects who develop detectable neutralizing ADA .
