Summary

Gentulizumab Injection is an anti-CD47 monoclonal antibody. As a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, CD47 is expressed at low levels on many cells of the body, including hematopoietic cells (red blood cells, lymphocytes, platelets, etc.) and non-hematopoietic cells (placenta, liver and brain cells). It is overexpressed on many types of tumors. There is abundant supportive evidence that the expression of CD47 on tumor cells, though binding to SIRP on professional phagocytes, acts to prevent tumor cell phagocytosis, inhibit antigen cross-presentation, and block the production of pro-inflammatory molecules, thus promoting the development of a "cold" tumor microenvironment. Blocking CD47 can not only stimulate phagocytosis to cancer cells, but also promote macrophage recruitment towards neoplasm. At the same time, blocking CD47 can stimulate macrophages to secrete cytokines. These cytokines and chemokines can further recruit other immune cells to neoplasms. These newly recruited immune cells can provide a positive feedback and enhance the therapeutic response of blocking CD47. Therefore, the CD47/SIRPα axis blocking appears to be a potential therapeutic target for neoplasm.

Currently, no anti-CD47 antibody product has been granted marketing authorization for progressive hematological malignancies. Whereas Hu5F9-G4, a CD47 monoclonal antibody, is being tested in a series of ongoing clinical trials for AML, MDS, lymphomas and multiple solid tumors. The clinical research was designed based on non-clinical data and relevant experience of other CD47 monoclonal antibody.

In this phase Ia study, "3 + 3" dose escalation method combined with rapid titration will be used to evaluate the dose limiting (DLT) toxicity of each dose group, evaluate the safety and tolerance of Gentulizumab in the treatment of patients with progressive hematological malignancies, and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and phase II recommended dose (RP2D); At the same time, the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), immunogenicity, preliminary efficacy and biomarkers of gentulizumab will be evaluated to provide sufficient basis for new drug application (NDA) guidance and further clinical use.
