How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: BL-M17D1
Participants receive BL-M17D1 as intravenous infusion for the first cycle (3 weeks). Participants with clinical benefit could receive additional treatment for more cycles. The administration will be terminated because of disease progression or intolerable toxicity occurring or other reasons.
Administration by intravenous infusion for a cycle of 3 weeks.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Phase Ia: Dose limiting toxicity (DLT)
Time Frame: Up to 21 days after the first dose
DLTs are assessed according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 during the first cycle and defined as occurrence of any of the toxicities in DLT definition if judged by the investigator to be possibly, probably or definitely related to study drug administration.
Up to 21 days after the first dose
Phase Ia: Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)
Time Frame: Up to 21 days after the first dose
MTD is defined as the highest dose level at which no more than 1 in 6 participants experienced a DLT during the first cycle .
Up to 21 days after the first dose
Phase Ib: Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
The RP2D is defined as the dose level chosen by the sponsor (in consultation with the investigators) for phase II study, based on safety, tolerability, efficacy, PK, and PD data collected during the dose escalation study of BL-M17D1.

Up to approximately 24 months
Phase Ib: Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants, who has a CR (disappearance of all target lesions) or PR (at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions). The percentage of participants who experiences a confirmed CR or PR is according to RECIST 1.1.

Phase Ib: Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
The DCR is defined as the percentage of participants who has a CR, PR, or Stable Disease (SD: neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease [PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions and an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD]).
Up to approximately 24 months
Phase Ib: Duration of Response (DOR)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
The DOR for a responder is defined as the time from the participant's initial objective response to the first date of either disease progression or death, whichever occurs first.
Up to approximately 24 months
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
TEAE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally emerging, or any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a pre-existing condition during the treatment of BL-M17D1 . The type, frequency and severity of TEAE will be evaluated during the treatment of BL-M17D1.
Up to approximately 24 months
Cmax
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
Maximum serum concentration (Cmax) of BL-M17D1 will be investigated.
Up to approximately 24 months
Tmax
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
Time to maximum serum concentration (Tmax) of BL-M17D1 will be investigated.
Up to approximately 24 months
T1/2
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
Half-life (T1/2) of BL-M17D1 will be investigated.
Up to approximately 24 months
CL (Clearance)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
CL in the serum of BL-M17D1 per unit of time will be investigated.
Up to approximately 24 months
Ctrough
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
Ctrough is defined as the lowest serum concentration of BL-M17D1 prior to the next dose will be administered.
Up to approximately 24 months
ADA (anti-drug antibody)
Time Frame: Up to approximately 24 months
Frequency of anti-BL-M17D1 antibody (ADA) will be investigated.
Up to approximately 24 months
