About this trial

This is a prospective, single-arm Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection combined with PD-1 blockade in patients with recurrent (not unable to locally curative treatment) or metastatic NPC who failed at least first-line platinum-containing standard regimen and/or anti PD-1/L1.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Willing to participate in the study, sign the informed consent form (ICF), and comply with study plan visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma confirmed by histopathology (differentiated or undifferentiated non-keratinous carcinoma).

Age ≥ 18 & ≤ 70 years.

PS (Performance Status) score 0-1.

Disqualifiers

Adequate main organ function. a. Hematology: neutrophil absolute value (ANC) ≥1.5×10^9/L, hemoglobin (Hb) ≥ 9.0 g/dL, platelets ≥ 100×10^9/L; b. Liver function: bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) (patients with known Gilbert disease and serum bilirubin level ≤ 3 times ULN could be enrolled; patients with liver metastasis, ≤ 5 times ULN), AST and ALT ≤ 3 times ULN, and alkaline phosphatase ≤ 3 times ULN; Albumin ≥ 3 g/dL; c. International Normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 times; d. Renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 ULN or creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min according to Cockcroft-Gault formula; e. Proteinuria: urinary protein/creatinine ratio (UPC ratio) < 1.0. If the UPC ratio is less than or equal to 0.5, no further check is required. Patients with UPC ratio > 0.5 and those with 24-hour urinary protein < 1000 mg could be enrolled; f. Note: The UPC ratio of random urine is a quantitative estimate of 24-hour urinary protein, and the two have a good correlation. UPC ratio can be calculated using the following formula: (a) Urinary protein/urinary creatinine (if both protein and creatinine are mg/dL); (b) (urinary protein)*0.088/ urinary creatinine (if urinary creatinine is mmol/L).

Survival is expected to be ≥ 3 months.

Female subjects with negative blood human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) (except for menopause and hysterectomy), female subjects of reproductive age and their partners using effective contraception during the trial period and within 6 months after the end of the last dose (e.g. Combined hormones [containing estrogen and progesterone combined to inhibit ovulation, progesterone contraception combined to inhibit ovulation, IUD, intrauterine hormone release system, bilateral tubal ligation, vasectomy, abstinence from sex, etc.).

Male patients and their partners agree to use one of the contraceptive measures described in Article 9.
