Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for The Phase II Study of Icaritin in Patients With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Study Description

Brief Summary: The primary objective of the study is to assess the time to progression (TTP) in patients with advanced HCC treated with Icaritin .

Detailed Description: Icaritin is a newly discovered small molecular compound which is high selective ERa36 modulators ,the preclinical PK\&PD and toxicity studies showed it can inhibit the growth of HCC cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo, combining clinical data perhaps it will be a very promising new drug to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by targeting this nongenomic pathway. Shenogen decided to further investigate the efficacy and safety of Icaritin and to explore potential gene targets for treating HCC. The results of phase I study showed Icaritin has good safety and tolerance. The biological availability of Icaritin after meal is high and the half-life is relatively short. The phase Ib study enrolled 28 subjects. Among the 18 HCC subjects, 12 subjects received treatment in the oral administration group with 600 mg once, twice per day, after meal 30 minutes, 6 subjects received treatment in the oral administration group with 800 mg once, twice per day, after meal 30 minutes. The results showed that in the 600mg group there are 12 HCC patients whose therapeutic efficacy is evaluable now, one case of PR (10%), 5 cases of SD (50%) and 4 cases of PD (40%) were observed.Safety data showed that totally 24 AEs are probably related to investigational drug. Among them, 19 AEs are grade I, 5 AEs are grade II, no grade III or above AE.
