Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18–75 with advanced solid tumors who have ECOG performance status 0–1, at least one evaluable or measurable lesion, adequate organ function, and willingness to provide tumor tissue are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients with ECOG ≥2, life expectancy under three months, unresolved high-grade toxicities from prior therapy, significant uncontrolled cardiac disease, or inadequate organ function are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This first-in-human, open-label Phase 1 study in China uses a dose-escalation part to identify the maximum tolerated dose (if any) and recommended dose, followed by a dose-expansion part to assess activity at selected dose levels. Adults with advanced solid tumors, particularly FRα-positive ovarian cancer, will receive GenSci140 and provide fresh or archived tumor tissue for central testing. Investigators will monitor safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity using measurable lesions. The trial enrolls participants aged 18–75 with ECOG 0–1 and adequate organ and cardiac function.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, GenSci140 could provide a new treatment option for people with advanced or FRα-positive tumors that have limited standard therapies.

How similar studies have gone: Related early-phase programs targeting folate receptor alpha or using novel targeted agents have shown some promising activity in ovarian cancer but results have been mixed and many approaches remain experimental.

7. Uncontrolled active systemic bacterial, viral, or fungal infection or ongoing serious systemic disease, such as hypertension or diabetes, despite Best Supportive Care. Chronic disease screening is not required.
8. History of multiple sclerosis or other demyelinating diseases, Eaton-Lambert syndrome (paraneoplastic syndrome), alcoholic liver disease, history of internal haemorrhage or ischemic stroke within the past 6 months, haemorrhagic diathesis that are unsuitable for enrollment as assessed by the investigator.
9. Suspected treatment-related pneumonitis that was clinically diagnosed in the past and currently requires steroids or cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening.
10. Uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or abdominal and pelvic fluid collection requiring drainage and/or diuretics within 14 days prior to the first dose of GenSci140.
11. Pregnant or lactating women.
