Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic Characteristics, and Preliminary Efficacy Evaluation of GST-HG161

Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic Characteristics, and Preliminary Efficacy Evaluation of the Selective c-MET Inhibitor GST-HG161 in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic characteristics, and preliminary efficacy evaluation of the selective c-MET inhibitor GST-HG161 in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors: An open, single and multiple administration, dose escalation, and expanded phase I trial

This is a phase I trial to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic characteristics, and preliminary efficacy GST-HG161.

There are 7 dose cohorts, including60mg, 150mg, 300mg, 450mg, 600mg, 750mg, 900mg QD in the dose escalation stage and GST-HG161 will be administered orally to patients once daily for each dose cohort. Recommended protocal in the dose expansion stage will be determined by the results in the dose escalation stage .
