About
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the study drug, CHO-A04, works to treat solid cancers in adults. It will also aim to learn about the safety of CHO-A04 and find the best dose to use in future cancer treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are:
There are two stages of investigation in this study:
In this study, each participant will be assigned to one of the CHO-A04 dose levels. Participants will have CHO-A04 infusion via blood vessel once every week for four weeks. The CHO-A04 treatment may continue based on participants' condition and CHO-A04 safety evaluations.
Full description
This Phase I/IIa, open-label, dose-escalation and cohort-expansion study aims to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of CHO-A04 in subjects aged ≥ 18 years with advanced solid tumors.
Both Phases I and Phase IIa include a screening period of up to 4 weeks and study treatment once every week starting from Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1) until any treatment discontinuation criterion is met. Each treatment cycle of the study treatment is 28 days.
Subjects will receive intravenous (IV) infusion of CHO-A04 once a week for 4 weeks (D1, D8, D15, D22) as a treatment cycle. After the completion of last dose of the study treatment, subjects should complete the end-of-treatment (EOT) visit, safety follow-up (EOS) visit, and survival follow-up visits, unless withdrawn from this study.
Phase I (accelerated titration and traditional 3+3 dose-escalation): Phase I consists of the accelerated titration and the traditional 3+3 dose-escalation design. Eligible subjects will be sequentially assigned into one of the dose levels. Dose level will be escalated from dose level 1 (starting dose) at 1 mg/kg/week to dose level 5 at 12 mg/kg/week of CHO-A04 (or may be de-escalated to dose level -1 at 0.5 mg/kg/week). If any ≥ Grade 2 CHO-A04 related adverse events (AEs) occurs in dose level 1 or dose level 2 subjects, the dose escalation/de-escalation rule will follow the 3+3 design. Intra-subject dose-escalation is not allowed in this study.
Phase IIa (cohort-expansion): Two cohorts of up to 10 subjects per cohort will receive the Recommend Phase 2 Dose (R2PD), which is a dose equal to or lower than MTD based on the SRC's decision. The Sponsor will determine the cancer type for each cohort before initiation of Phase IIa.

Inclusion criteria
With either gender aged ≥ 18 years
Histologically/cytologically confirmed, locally advanced unresectable or metastatic solid tumors
Must have been treated with established standard-of-care therapy, or physicians have determined that such established therapy is not sufficiently efficacious, or patients have declined to receive standard-of-care therapy
Availability of archival tissue specimens for SSEA-4 immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining (optional for Phase I). Acceptable tumor tissues include:

Has adequate renal function: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) Note: eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 186.3 × (serum creatinine in mg/dL)-1.154 × (age)-0.203× (0.742 if female) × (1.212 if African American/black)
Willingness and ability to comply with protocol-stated requirements, instructions, and restrictions per Investigator's judgment
Is able to understand the nature of this clinical study and accepts to enter the study by signing the informed consent form (ICF)
Exclusion criteria
Has unresolved toxicities from prior anticancer therapy, defined as having not resolved to ≤ Grade 1 (NCI-CTCAE v5.0), except for alopecia and laboratory values listed in the inclusion criteria
Has signs or symptoms of end-stage organ failure, major chronic illnesses other than cancer(s), or any severe concomitant conditions which, in the Investigator's opinion, make it undesirable for the subject to participate in the study, or could jeopardize compliance with the protocol
History of another primary malignancy within the last 3 years (except for treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, or in situ cancer of the cervix) prior to the planned first infusion
Has any significant cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases, including:
History of thromboembolic or cerebrovascular events within the last 24 weeks before the screening visit, including transient ischemic attack, cerebrovascular accident, or deep vein thrombosis
Has other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric conditions or laboratory abnormalities that would make the subject inappropriate for enrollment in this study in the opinion of the Investigator
Has received anti-cancer therapies such as surgery on target lesions, chemotherapy, small molecule agent(s), hormone therapy, radiation therapy (except for palliative radiotherapy for bone metastasis of non-skeletal tumors), or any other anti-cancer agent(s) within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives of the treated agents, whichever is longer, prior to the first dosing. Has received prior anti-cancer monoclonal antibody therapy within 8 weeks prior to the first infusion.
Has received systemic immunosuppressive medication(s) (including, but not limited to, steroids, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, tumor necrosis factor-ɑ antagonists, and calcineurin inhibitors) within 2 weeks (for those with a half-life ≤ 72 hours) or 4 weeks (for those half-life > 72 hours) prior to study dosing.
Note: For regular steroid use, ≤ 10 mg of prednisolone per day or equivalent is allowed. Inhaled or topical corticosteroids are allowed.
Has participated in other clinical studies for investigational product(s) or medical device within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (if known) prior to the planned first infusion, whichever is longer
Has received cell therapy within 12 weeks prior to the planned first infusion
Prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell, solid organ, or bone marrow transplantation(s)
Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis.
Note: Subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging for at least 4 weeks prior to the planned first infusion and any neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline), have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases. This exception does not include carcinomatous meningitis which is excluded regardless of its clinical stability
