Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 12 and older with advanced or metastatic GIST or other solid tumors who have shown resistance to imatinib or other targeted therapies.

Probably not a fit

Patients with early-stage tumors or those who have not previously undergone treatment with imatinib may not benefit from this study.

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

What this trial studies

This is a multi-center, open-label Phase 1 study aimed at determining the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of HQP1351 in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) or other solid tumors. The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of HQP1351. Participants will be closely monitored for their response to the treatment and any adverse effects.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with GIST and other solid tumors that are resistant to current therapies.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar targeted therapies in treating GIST, indicating potential for success with this approach.

Exclusion Criteria:

2. Received any TKIs within 14 days before first dose of HQP1351.
3. Attended any clinical trials on other drugs within 14 days before first dose of HQP1351.
4. Have not recovered (\> Grade 1 by CTCAE, v. 4.0) from AEs (except alopecia) due to agents previously administered.
5. Malabsorption syndrome or other diseases that affect the absorption of oral drugs.
6. Cardiovascular diseases of clinical significance, uncontrollable or active, including but not limited to: history of myocardial infarction; unstable history of angina pectoris; a history of congestive heart failure or lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) than normal limit within 6 months; the history of atrial arrhythmias was judged by the researchers to have important clinical significance; history of ventricular arrhythmias, etc.

9. Pulmonary mean arterial pressure\>35 mmHg by ECHO.
10. Significant severe cardiovascular conditions during previous TKI treatment.
11. Uncontrollable hypertriglyceridemia.
12. Performed major surgery (except for intravenous catheterization or bone marrow biopsy) within 14 days of first dose of HQP1351.
13. Arterial thrombosis or embolism events such as cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack, TIA), or venous thrombosis events or pulmonary embolism within 6 months before the first dose of HQP1351 or deep vein thrombosis within 3 months before the first dose of HQP1351.
14. Brain metastasis.
15. Had other primary malignant tumors in the last three years (exception of the tumors being cured for 5 years or more, or complete removal of non-melanoma skin cancer or successful treatment of carcinoma in situ, or the controlled prostate cancer).
16. Had active, symptomatic infections (including known infections of HIV, viral hepatitis (A, B, or C)). If there is no history of infection, screening is not required.
17. Subjects who are known to be allergic to pharmaceutical ingredients or their analogs.
18. Pregnancy or lactation, or expect to be pregnant during the study period.
