HS-20093 treatment for head and neck cancer and other solid tumors

ARTEMIS-006: A Phase 2 Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Administration of HS-20093 in Patients With Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Other Solid Tumors

Phase 2 Interventional Hansoh BioMedical R&D Company · NCT06007729

This study is testing a new treatment called HS-20093 to see if it can help people with advanced head and neck cancer and other solid tumors who haven't had success with standard therapies.

What this trial studies

This phase 2, open-label, multi-center study evaluates the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of HS-20093, a fully humanized antibody-drug conjugate targeting B7-H3, in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and other advanced solid tumors. The study consists of two parts: Phase 2a includes patients who have progressed on or are intolerant to standard therapies, while Phase 2b focuses specifically on HNSCC patients. All participants will receive 10.0 mg/kg of HS-20093 and will be monitored for adverse events and clinical benefits during and after treatment.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma or other solid tumors who have progressed on or are intolerant to standard therapies.

Not a fit: Patients who have previously received B7-H3 targeted therapy or those with certain recent treatments may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced head and neck cancer and other solid tumors who have limited treatment options.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is novel in targeting B7-H3 with HS-20093, similar studies targeting other pathways have shown promise in treating solid tumors.
