Full description
This study is a prospective, single arm phase II clinical trial ,aimed at exploring the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of anti-PD-1 and VEGF bispecific antibody Ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment of relapsed or metastatic thymic cancer.
Patients who met the inclusion criteria and were pathologically confirmed to be metastatic or recurrent thymic cancer were treated with first-line treatment of Ivonescimab (20mg/kg) combined with chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel / albumin paclitaxel), and the efficacy was evaluated clinically and radiologically. The primary endpoint of this study was the 6-month progression free survival rate (PFS6m), and the secondary endpoints included PFS, objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), duration of remission (DOR), and overall survival (OS), as well as safety related research indicators including adverse events (AE) and quality of life score (QOL). During the study, biological samples were collected from patients, and exploratory studies on the efficacy and side effect biological markers of Ivonescimab were carried out.

Exclusion criteria
- Patients with thymoma component suspected by pathological diagnosis (only thymic cancer patients were enrolled).
- The patient has or is suspected of having autoimmune disease. Note: Patients with vitiligo, type I diabetes, or Hashimoto's thyroiditis who have hypothyroidism but only need hormone replacement therapy can be included in the study when there is no obvious sign of recurrence.
- Patients need to receive systemic cortisol treatment (>10mg prednisolone [or equivalent dose] / day) or use other immunosuppressive drugs within 14 days after enrollment. Note: inhaled or topical corticosteroids, or adrenal hormone replacement therapy (>10mg prednisolone [or equivalent dose] / day) can be accepted for patients without obvious autoimmune disease.
- Patients with grade 3-4 interstitial lung disease.
- At the same time, the patient has other malignant tumors and need anti-tumor treatment.
- Patients with other malignant tumors in the past (excluding skin malignant tumors other than non melanoma, and carcinoma in situ in the following parts [bladder, stomach, colorectal, endometrial, cervical, melanoma or breast]) cannot be included in this study. However, if the malignant tumor has achieved complete remission for five years or more and does not need to receive additional anti-tumor treatment during this study, it can be included in the study.
- Received live attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks before the first dose or planned during the study.
- Major surgical operations (craniotomy, thoracotomy or laparotomy) or unhealed wounds, ulcers or fractures within 4 weeks before the first administration.
- The investigator believes that the patient is medically, psychologically, or physiologically unable to complete the study or understand the information in the patient manual.
- Previously received anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-CTLA4, other drugs targeting T cell costimulation or immune regulatory pathways, and anti vascular drugs.
- Myocardial infarction and poorly controlled arrhythmia occurred within 6 months before the first administration (including QTc interval ≥ 450 ms for males and ≥ 470 ms for females) (QTc interval was calculated according to fridericia formula); Or according to NYHA criteria for grade III-IV cardiac insufficiency or left ventricular ejection fraction <50% by cardiac color Doppler ultrasound.
- The subject had grade ≥ 2 CTCAE peripheral neuropathy.
- Uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion or ascites requiring repeated drainage. Only a small amount of pleural fluid, ascites and pericardial effusion without clinical symptoms revealed by imaging can be enrolled.
- There are active patients with hepatitis B, C, tuberculosis, syphilis or other serious infections with poor clinical control.
- HIV test positive or have been diagnosed with acquired immune deficiency disease (AIDS).
- Allergic to the study drug or known history of severe allergy to any monoclonal antibody (NCI-CTCAE 5.0 grade > 3).
- Those who received live or attenuated vaccines within 28 days before the first dose or had plans to receive such vaccines during the study; However, inactivated viral vaccines for seasonal influenza are permitted.

Those who had deep vein thrombosis, were using anticoagulant or platelet therapy, or had deep vein thrombosis or serious bleeding caused by the use of antiangiogenic drugs in the past 3 months before enrollment; Or any other history of severe thromboembolism (implantable venous port or catheter-derived thrombosis, or superficial venous thrombosis is not considered "severe" thromboembolism).
- Vascular events occurred in the past 6 months, including cerebrovascular accidents (including transient ischemic attack), any arterial thromboembolic events, including myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, unstable angina pectoris, etc.
