A Study of HB0030 Injection in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

A Phase Ia,Single Center,Open-label,Dose-escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of HB0030 Injection in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a phase Ia single-center, open-label, dose escalation study.The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, toxicity, tolerability, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics(PK/PD), immunogenicity, biomarkers, and antitumor activity of HB0030 in advanced solid tumor subjects.

The phase Ia study will enroll up to 19-36 subjects with advanced solid tumor who have progressing tumor after standard therapy and have no better treatment option.The conventional 3+3 design will be applied for dose escalation.This study will set up 8 dose groups.HB0030 injection is administered once every 3 weeks.
