Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for A Study of KN046 in Patients With Thymic Carcinoma Who Failed Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

Study Description

Brief Summary: This study will assess the safety and efficacy of the study drug KN046 in patients with advanced thymic carcinoma who progressed after prior treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy.

Detailed Description: Patients will receive KN046 intravenously at 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks until progression or excessive toxicity for up to to two years, with the goal of this trial to contribute to the development of active and well tolerated treatments for patients who have progressed on prior treatment therapies. Recently, molecules that combine PD-1 and CTLA-4 have been developed for patients with lung cancer, with the hope that targeted therapy will be more effective than standard of care therapies. KN046 is believed to be less toxic than other targeted therapies with an assumption that the whole molecule can actively target tumor tissue for a much higher affinity of the anti-PD-L1 portion and a weaker affinity for anti-CTLA-4, leading to less autoimmune disorders and toxicities for patients than seen with other targeted therapies.
