Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy Combined With Cadonilimab for Advanced Refractory Malignant Solid Tumors

Clinical Study of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy Combined With Cadonilimab for the Treatment of Advanced Refractory Malignant Solid Tumors

The goal of this multicenter prospective single-arm phase I/II study is to study the safety and efficacy stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with Cadonilimab for advanced refractory malignant solid tumors. The main questions it aims to answer are:

• How safe is this regimen of SBRT combined with Cadonilimab for advanced refractory malignant solid tumors?
• How effective is this regimen of SBRT combined with Cadonilimab for advanced refractory malignant solid tumors? Participants will receive SBRT combined with Cadonilimab until disease progression or intolerable toxicities or death.

The goal of this single center prospective single-arm phase I/II study is to study the safety and efficacy stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with Cadonilimab for advanced refractory malignant solid tumors. The primary endpoint is adverse event (AE) and the secondary endpoints are progression free survival, overall survival, overall response rate, and disease control rate.

Participants will receive SBRT combined with Cadonilimab. Cadonilimab will be administered, 6mg/kg, twice a week, intravenous until disease progression or intolerable toxicities or death. The first cycle of Cadonilimab was started within 3 days before and after the first fraction of SBRT treatment.

   2. Liver function: total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal value (ULN); Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were less than 2.5 times ULN in subjects without liver metastasis, and ALT and AST were less than 5 times ULN in subjects with liver metastasis.
   3. Renal function: serum creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5 times ULN or Cr clearance ≥60 mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula), and urine protein (UPRO) &lt on routine urine test; 2+ or 24 h urinary protein quantification < 1g;
   4. International standardized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 times ULN and partial prothrombin time (PTT) or activated partial thrombin time (APTT) ≤1.5 times ULN during the 7 days prior to treatment;

8. For female subjects of reproductive age, urine or serum pregnancy tests should be negative within 3 days prior to receiving the first study drug administration (Cycle 1, day 1). If the urine pregnancy test results cannot be confirmed negative, a blood pregnancy test is requested;

9. Compliance with the research protocol is expected to be good.

Patients who had received palliative radiotherapy before 7 days prior to initial administration had to meet all of the following criteria to be enrolled: there was no current toxicity associated with radiotherapy and no need for glucocorticoids;
4.

7. Receiving any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to initial administration of the study, excluding nasal spray, inhalation or other routes of topical corticosteroids or physiological doses of systemic corticosteroids (≤10 mg/ day of prednisone or equal doses of drugs);
8. There is a history of non-infectious pneumonia requiring glucocorticoid therapy or a current interstitial lung disease within 1 year prior to initial administration;
9. An active autoimmune immune disease requiring systemic therapy (e.g., disease-modifying drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) has occurred within 2 years prior to initial administration. Alternative therapies (such as thyroxine, insulin, or physiological corticosteroids for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) are not considered systemic therapy;
10. symptomatic central nervous system metastasis; Patients with asymptomatic brain metastases or stable symptoms for ≥2 weeks after treatment were eligible to participate in this study if they met all of the following criteria: measurable lesions outside the central nervous system; No meningeal, midbrain, pons, cerebellum, bulbar, or spinal cord metastasis; No history of intracranial hemorrhage; Stop hormone therapy 14 days before the first dose of the study drug;
