The entire contents of the foregoing patent applications are incorporated into this disclosure by reference. Technical Field

[0002] The present disclosure belongs to the field of medicine and relates to a method for treating tumors with an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate and its medical uses. Background Art

[0003] Nectin-4 (gene name PVRL4, poliovirus receptor 4) protein belongs to the nectin family of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The nectin family works together with cadherins to have a significant impact on the generation and maintenance of adherens junctions (AJs) and tight junctions (TJs), regulating a variety of cellular behaviors, including cell adhesion, growth, differentiation, migration, and apoptosis. Unlike nectins 1-3, which are widely expressed in normal adult tissues, nectin-4 protein is specifically expressed in the embryo and placenta, expressed in a few normal adult tissues (including skin), and overexpressed in tumor tissues (in addition to AJs, it is also distributed at the cell apex and released into the plasma). Nectin-4 is specifically and highly expressed in tumor tissues and is closely related to tumor prognosis. The potential mechanisms by which nectin-4 promotes tumor occurrence and metastasis include: 1) promoting tumor angiogenesis: promoting tumor angiogenesis by activating the PI3K / AKT signaling pathway; 2) promoting tumor cell growth, proliferation and migration: by activating the Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) signaling pathway; 3) promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT): nectin-4 can regulate intercellular adhesion, reshape the actin cytoskeleton, and enhance the driving force of pseudopodia extension in tumor cells, ultimately leading to tumor development and spread.

[0004] Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are small molecule cytotoxic drugs covalently attached to antibodies via a chemical link. Using the antibody as a carrier, the small molecule drug is delivered to target cells. They combine the highly targeted properties of antibodies with the potent killing power of cytotoxic drugs against target cells and are considered a new generation of antibody-targeted therapeutics. The antibody in the Nectin-4 ADC specifically recognizes and binds to the Nectin-4 receptor on the surface of target cells. It then enters the target cell through endocytosis, where it is broken down and releases the cytotoxic drug. The cytotoxic drug then exerts its anti-tumor effect by damaging DNA or acting on microtubules, preventing cell division and inducing apoptosis.

[0005] Currently, there is a need to develop safe and effective drug treatment options targeting Nectin-4. Summary of the Invention

[0266] the term

[0267] In order to make the present disclosure more easily understood, certain technical and scientific terms are specifically defined below. Unless otherwise explicitly defined herein, all other technical and scientific terms used herein have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present disclosure belongs.

[0268] Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the words "comprising," "having," "including," etc. should be construed to have an inclusive sense rather than an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is, in the sense of "including but not limited to."

[0269] "Optional" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may but need not occur, and that the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.

[0270] "About" and "approximately" refer to values ​​within an acceptable error range for a particular value as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which value depends in part on how it is measured or determined (i.e., the limits of the measurement system). For example, "about" can mean within 1 or more than 1 standard deviation. Alternatively, "about" or "substantially comprising" can mean a range of up to 20%, such as between 1% and 15%, between 1% and 10%, between 1% and 5%, between 0.5% and 5%, between 0.5% and 1%, and in this disclosure, each instance of a number or numerical range preceded by the term "about" also includes embodiments of the given number. Unless otherwise stated, when a specific value appears in the application and claims, the meaning of "about" or "substantially comprising" should be assumed to be within an acceptable error range for that specific value.

[0271] The term "and / or," such as "X and / or Y," should be understood to mean "X and Y" or "X or Y" and should be used to provide clear support for both meanings or either meaning.

[0272] In some embodiments, the present disclosure defines:

[0273] Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) link antibodies or antibody fragments to biologically active cytotoxins or small molecule drugs with cell-killing activity via a stable chemical linker. These ADCs leverage the antibody's specificity for tumor cell-specific or highly expressed antigens and the high efficacy of the cytotoxin, while avoiding toxic side effects on normal cells. Compared to traditional chemotherapy drugs, ADCs can precisely bind to tumor cells while minimizing their effects on normal cells.

[0274] An antibody drug conjugate "retains its chemical stability" in a pharmaceutical formulation if the antibody drug conjugate shows no significant chemical changes. Chemical stability can be assessed by detecting and quantifying chemically altered forms of the protein. Degradation processes that often change the chemical structure of a protein include hydrolysis or truncation (assessed by methods such as size exclusion chromatography and CE-SDS), oxidation (assessed by methods such as peptide mapping in combination with mass spectrometry or MALDI / TOF / MS), deamidation (assessed by methods such as ion exchange chromatography, capillary isoelectric focusing, peptide mapping, isoaspartate measurement), and isomerization (assessed by measuring isoaspartate content, peptide mapping, etc.).

[0275] An antibody drug conjugate "retains its biological activity" in a pharmaceutical formulation if the biological activity of the antibody drug conjugate at a given time is within a predetermined range of the biological activity exhibited when the pharmaceutical formulation is prepared.

[0276] The three letter and one letter codes for amino acids used in this disclosure are as described in J. biol. chem, 243, p3558 (1968).

[0277] As used herein, the term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense to encompass various antibody structures, including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies; monospecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), full-length antibodies, and antibody fragments (or antigen-binding fragments, or antigen-binding portions), as long as they exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity. An antibody may refer to an immunoglobulin, which is a tetrapeptide chain structure composed of two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains connected by interchain disulfide bonds. The amino acid composition and arrangement order of the constant regions of immunoglobulins' heavy chains differ, resulting in different antigenicity. Accordingly, immunoglobulins can be divided into five classes, or so-called immunoglobulin isotypes: IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE, with their corresponding heavy chains being μ, δ, γ, α, and ε, respectively. Igs of the same class can be further divided into different subclasses based on differences in the amino acid composition of their hinge regions and the number and location of heavy chain disulfide bonds. For example, IgG can be divided into IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. Light chains are classified as either kappa or lambda chains based on differences in their constant regions. Each of the five classes of Ig can have either kappa or lambda chains. The approximately 110 amino acids near the N-terminus of both the heavy and light chains of antibodies vary greatly in sequence and constitute the variable region (V region); the remaining amino acid sequences near the C-terminus are relatively stable and constitute the constant region (C region). The variable region consists of three hypervariable regions (CDRs) and four framework regions (FRs) whose sequences are relatively conserved. These three hypervariable regions determine the specificity of the antibody and are also known as complementarity-determining regions (CDRs). Each light chain variable region (VL) and heavy chain variable region (VH) consists of three CDRs and four FRs, arranged from the amino terminus to the carboxyl terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The three CDRs of the light chain are referred to as LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3; the three CDRs of the heavy chain are referred to as HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3.

[0278] For the determination or definition of CDRs, the definitive delineation of CDRs and the identification of residues comprising the binding site of the antibody can be accomplished by resolving the structure of the antibody and / or resolving the structure of the antibody-ligand complex. This can be accomplished by any of the various techniques known to those skilled in the art, such as X-ray crystallography. A variety of analytical methods can be used to identify CDRs, including but not limited to the Kabat numbering system, the Chothia numbering system, the AbM numbering system, the IMGT numbering system, contact definitions, and conformational definitions.

[0279] The amino acid sequence boundaries of CDRs can be determined by various well-known schemes, for example: "Kabat" numbering convention (see Kabat et al. (1991), "Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest", 5th edition, Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD), "Chothia" numbering convention, "ABM" numbering convention, "contact" numbering convention (see Martin, ACR. Protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of Antibody Variable Domains [J]. 2001) and ImMunoGenTics (IMGT) numbering convention (Lefranc, MP et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 27, 55-77 (2003); Front Immunol. 2018 Oct 16; 9: 2278), etc.

[0280] The term "antigen-binding fragment" or "functional fragment" or "antigen-binding portion" refers to one or more fragments of an intact antibody that retains the ability to specifically bind to an antigen. It has been shown that fragments of a full-length antibody can be used to perform the antigen-binding function of an antibody. Exemplary binding fragments encompassed by the term "antigen-binding fragment" include: (i) a Fab fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL, and CH1 domains; (ii) a F(ab')2 fragment, a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region; (iii) a Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CH1 domains; (iv) an Fv fragment consisting of the VH and VL domains of a single arm of an antibody; (v) a dsFv, a stable antigen-binding fragment formed by an interchain disulfide bond between VH and VL; (vi) scFv; (vii) diabodies, bispecific antibodies, and multispecific antibodies comprising fragments such as scFv, dsFv, and Fab.

[0281] The terms "specific binding", "selective binding", "selectively binds" and "specifically binds" refer to the binding of an antibody to a predetermined epitope on an antigen. -8 M, for example, less than approximately 10 -9 M, 10 -10 M, 10 -11 Binds with an affinity (KD) of M or less.

[0282] The term "KD" refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant for a particular antibody-antigen interaction. Typically, the antibodies of the present disclosure exhibit dissociation equilibrium constants of less than about 10-7 M, for example, less than about 10-7 M. -8 M, 10 -9 M or 10 -10 The IL-5 binding protein binds to IL-5 with a dissociation equilibrium constant (KD) of M or less, e.g., as determined using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology in a BIACORE instrument.

[0283] "Homology" refers to the sequence similarity between two polynucleotide sequences or between two polypeptides. When a position in the two compared sequences is occupied by the same base or amino acid monomer subunit, for example, if every position in two DNA molecules is occupied by adenine, then the molecules are homologous at that position. The percentage homology between two sequences is a function of the number of matching or homologous positions shared by the two sequences divided by the number of positions compared × 100. For example, if 6 out of 10 positions in the two sequences match or are homologous when the sequences are optimally aligned, then the two sequences are 60% homologous; if 95 out of 100 positions in the two sequences match or are homologous, then the two sequences are 95% homologous. Typically, when aligning two sequences, the comparison is performed to give the maximum percentage homology. For example, the comparison can be performed using the BLAST algorithm, where the parameters of the algorithm are selected to give the maximum match between each sequence over the entire length of each reference sequence. The following references relate to the BLAST algorithm commonly used for sequence analysis: BLAST ALGORITHMS: Altschul, SF et al., (1990) J. Mol.

[0284] "Administering" and "treating" as applied to an animal, a human, a laboratory subject, a cell, a tissue, an organ or a biological fluid, refers to the contacting of an exogenous drug, therapeutic agent, diagnostic agent or composition with an animal, a human, a subject, a cell, a tissue, an organ or a biological fluid. "Administering" and "treating" can refer to, for example, therapeutic, pharmacokinetics, diagnostics, research and experimental procedures. Treatment of cells includes contacting an agent with a cell, and contacting an agent with a fluid, wherein the fluid is in contact with the cell. "Administering" and "treating" also mean treating, for example, a cell in vitro and ex vivo, by an agent, a diagnostic, a binding composition or by another cell. "Treatment" as applied to a human, veterinary or research subject, refers to therapeutic treatment, prophylactic or preventative measures, research and diagnostic applications.

[0285] "Treatment" means administering an internal or external therapeutic agent, such as a composition comprising any of the binding compounds of the present disclosure, to a patient who has one or more symptoms of a disease for which the therapeutic agent is known to have a therapeutic effect. Typically, the therapeutic agent is administered in an amount effective to alleviate one or more symptoms of the disease in the patient or population being treated, to induce regression of such symptoms or to inhibit the progression of such symptoms to any clinically measurable degree. The amount of a therapeutic agent effective to alleviate any specific disease symptom (also referred to as a "therapeutically effective amount") can vary according to a variety of factors, such as the patient's disease state, age, and weight, and the ability of the drug to produce the desired therapeutic effect in the patient. Whether the symptoms of the disease have been alleviated can be assessed by any clinical test method commonly used by a physician or other health care professional to assess the severity or progression of the symptoms. Although embodiments of the present disclosure (e.g., methods of treatment or articles of manufacture) may not be effective in alleviating every symptom of the target disease, they should alleviate the target disease symptoms in a statistically significant number of patients as determined by any statistical test known in the art, such as Student's t-test, chi-square test, U test according to Mann and Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis test (H test), Jonckheere-Terpstra test, and Wilcoxon test.

[0286] An "effective amount" encompasses an amount sufficient to ameliorate or prevent the symptoms or conditions of a medical condition. An effective amount also means an amount sufficient to permit or facilitate diagnosis. The effective amount for a particular patient or veterinary subject may vary depending on factors such as the condition to be treated, the patient's overall health, the route and dosage of administration, and the severity of side effects. An effective amount can be the maximum dose or dosage regimen that avoids significant side effects or toxic effects.

[0287] The terms "subject" and "patient" refer to mammals, particularly primates, and especially humans.

[0288] The "combination" described in the present disclosure is a mode of administration, which refers to the administration of at least one dose of an anti-Nectin-4 antibody drug conjugate and at least one dose of an immunotherapeutic agent and / or a chemotherapeutic agent within a certain time period, wherein both drugs show a pharmacological effect. The time period can be within a dosing cycle, such as within 4 weeks, within 3 weeks, within 2 weeks, within 1 week, or within 24 hours, or within 12 hours, etc. The anti-Nectin-4 antibody drug conjugate and other types of drugs can be administered simultaneously or sequentially. This period includes treatments in which the anti-Nectin-4 antibody drug conjugate and other types of drugs are administered by the same route of administration or different routes of administration. The combined administration mode described in the present disclosure is selected from simultaneous administration, independent formulation and co-administration, or independent formulation and sequential administration.

[0289] In the antibody-drug conjugates disclosed herein, "n" refers to the average number of cytotoxic drugs loaded on each antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof in the antibody-drug conjugate molecule, and can also be expressed as the ratio of the amount of drug to the amount of antibody, which is the average number of drugs per ADC molecule after the coupling reaction as determined by hydrophobic chromatography (HIC) mass spectrometry.

[0290] A "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a mixture containing one or more compounds described herein, or their physiologically / pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs, together with other chemical components, such as physiologically / pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and excipients.

[0315] 4. Test results

[0316] 1) Effectiveness indicators:

[0317] Tumor assessments were performed using RECIST v1.1, and all subjects underwent baseline tumor imaging during the screening period. Efficacy was evaluated using RECIST v1.1, with investigator-assessed ORR, DCR, DoR, and PFS as indicators.

[0318] As of November 14, 2023, a total of 20 subjects with advanced urothelial carcinoma were enrolled in a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, with 1, 3, 3, 7, and 6 subjects enrolled in the 1mg / kg, 2mg / kg, 4mg / kg, 6mg / kg, and 8mg / kg dose groups, respectively. Five and three subjects in the 6mg / kg and 8mg / kg dose groups, respectively, had baseline target lesions and completed at least one efficacy assessment, with unconfirmed ORRs of 40% (3 / 5) and 66.7% (2 / 3), respectively.

[0319] In a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, 73 subjects with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma were enrolled (median age: 65 years; 57.5% had received ≥2 lines of systemic anti-tumor therapy; 42.5% had received ADC prior therapy). Based on the full analysis set, the confirmed objective response rate (ORR) was 38.4% (28 / 73; 95% CI, 27.2–50.5) among all subjects. The confirmed ORRs for the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups were 32.3% (10 / 31, 95% CI, 16.7–51.4) and 50.0% (16 / 32, 95% CI, 31.9–68.1), respectively. Among all subjects, the proportion of subjects with a 6-month duration of response (DoR%) was 59.3% (95% CI, 23.1–83.0); the 6-month DoR% for the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups were 66.7% [95% CI, 5.4–94.5] and 54.0% [95% CI, 12.7–83.2], respectively. Among them, 31 subjects had ADC treatment, and 12 subjects (38.7%; 95% CI, 21.9–57.8) had a confirmed partial response (PR).

[0320] In a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, a total of 81 subjects with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma were enrolled. The baseline characteristics of the enrolled subjects are shown in Table 4.

[0321] Table 4. Baseline characteristics of the subjects

[0322] *ADC is disitamab vedotin (HER2 ADC)

[0323] #Failure or intolerance of standard treatment, no standard treatment or refusal of standard treatment

[0324] In a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, 81 patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic urothelial carcinoma were enrolled. The statistical results of the treatment efficacy evaluation for these enrolled subjects are shown in Tables 5-7 and Figure 1. Based on the full analysis set, the confirmed objective response rate (ORR) among all subjects was 38.3% (31 / 81, 95% CI, 27.7–49.7). The confirmed ORRs for the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups were 41.9% (13 / 31, 95% CI, 24.5–60.9) and 50.0% (16 / 32, 95% CI, 31.9–68.1), respectively. Among all subjects, the confirmed disease control rate (DCR) was 76.5% (62 / 81, 95% CI, 65.8–85.3); the confirmed DCRs were 90.3% (28 / 31, 95% CI, 74.3–98.0) and 84.4% (27 / 32, 95% CI, 67.2–94.7) in the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups, respectively. The 6-month duration of response (DoR%) among all subjects was 53.1% (95% CI, 27.8–73.1); the 6-month DoR% was 59.5% (95% CI, 23.5–83.0) and 43.5% (95% CI, 8.3–75.7) in the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.8 months (95% CI, 3.9-9.0) for the 6 mg / kg and 5.8 months (95% CI, 3.4-8.2) for the 8 mg / kg dose groups, respectively. Of the 31 subjects who had previously received ADC therapy, 13 achieved a confirmed partial response (PR), resulting in an ORR of 41.9% (95% CI, 24.6–60.9); a DCR of 74.2% (95% CI, 55.4–88.1); and a 6-month DoR of 52.4% (95% CI, 20.1–77.0). Among 31 subjects treated with ADC, the ORRs for the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups were 54.5% (95% CI, 23.4–83.3) and 42.9% (95% CI, 17.7–71.1), respectively. The DCRs were 90.9% (95% CI, 58.7–99.8) and 78.6% (95% CI, 49.2–95.3), respectively. The 6-month DoR%s were 41.7% (95% CI, 5.6–76.7) and 75.0% (95% CI, 12.8–96.1), respectively.

[0328] 2) Safety evaluation:

[0329] After all subjects are enrolled in the study, safety assessments will be conducted during each treatment cycle. This includes the incidence and grade of AEs, serious adverse events (SAEs) (assessed according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 criteria), changes in vital signs, abnormal laboratory test indicators, and the incidence of dose suspension, dose reduction, and dose termination due to study drug-related toxicity during the trial.

[0330] In a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, 20 subjects with advanced urothelial carcinoma were enrolled, with 1, 3, 3, 7, and 6 patients enrolled in the 1 mg / kg, 2 mg / kg, 4 mg / kg, 6 mg / kg, and 8 mg / kg dose groups, respectively. The incidence of Grade ≥ 3 TRAEs in the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups was 29% (2 / 7) and 33% (2 / 6), respectively. DLTs occurred in all 1 mg / kg, 2 mg / kg, 4 mg / kg, and 6 mg / kg dose groups.

[0331] In a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, 73 subjects with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic urothelial carcinoma were enrolled. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observations were completed in all dose groups, and 32 subjects (43.8%) experienced Grade 3 or higher TRAEs. The most common TRAEs included anemia (23.3%), decreased white blood cell count (19.2%), and decreased neutrophil count (17.8%). The incidence of Grade 3 or higher TRAEs in the 6 mg / kg and 8 mg / kg dose groups was 32.3% (10 / 31) and 65.6% (21 / 32), respectively.

[0332] In a Phase I clinical study of an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate, 81 subjects with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic urothelial carcinoma were enrolled. Safety evaluation results are shown in Table 8. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observations were completed in all dose groups. A total of 36 subjects (44.4%) experienced Grade 3 or higher TRAEs. The incidence of Grade 3 or higher TRAEs was 38.7% (12 / 31) in the 6 mg / kg and 65.6% (21 / 32) dose groups, respectively. The most common TRAEs included anemia (22.2%), decreased white blood cell count (18.5%), and decreased neutrophil count (16%). The incidence of TRAEs leading to dose reduction (8.6%) and discontinuation (2.5%) was relatively low.

[0397] 4. Results Evaluation

[0398] 4.1 Effectiveness Indicators

[0399] Tumor assessment was based on RECIST v1.1 criteria, and all subjects underwent baseline tumor imaging during the screening period. Efficacy measures included investigator-assessed ORR and DCR.

[0400] Table 9. Baseline characteristics of subjects

[0401] *ADC is disitamab vedotin (HER2 ADC)

[0402] A total of 90 subjects were enrolled, and their baseline characteristics are shown in Table 9. In Phase Ib, 32 subjects were enrolled in the 6 mg / kg and 22 subjects were enrolled in the 8 mg / kg dose groups; in Phase II, Cohort 2 (8 mg / kg dose group), 36 subjects were enrolled. The statistical results of the treatment efficacy evaluation for the enrolled subjects are as follows:

[0403] 1) Phase IB included 53 subjects who completed at least one efficacy evaluation, and 1 subject who did not undergo treatment evaluation:

[0404] The objective response rate (uORR) for all subjects in the 6 mg / kg group was 50.0% (16 / 32), and the disease control rate (DCR) was 90.6% (20 / 22), including 2 subjects (6.3%) with complete disease response (CR), 14 subjects (43.8%) with partial response (PR), and 13 subjects (40.7%) with stable disease (SD). The disease control rate (DCR) for all subjects in the 8 mg / kg group was 90.9% (20 / 22).

[0405] In the 6 mg / kg group, the objective response rate (uORR) in subjects who had previously received immunotherapy (ICI) was 46.2% (6 / 13), and the objective response rate (uORR) in subjects who had not previously received immunotherapy (ICI) was 52.6% (10 / 19).

[0406] 2) Cohort 2 of Phase II enrolled 36 subjects. The objective response rate (uORR) of all subjects in the 8 mg / kg group was 47.2% (17 / 36), and the disease control rate (DCR) was 94.4% (34 / 36).

[0407] 4.2 Safety evaluation

[0408] After all subjects are enrolled in the study, safety assessments will be conducted during each treatment cycle. This includes the incidence and grade of AEs, serious adverse events (SAEs) (assessed according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 criteria), changes in vital signs, abnormal laboratory test indicators, and the incidence of dose suspension, dose reduction, and dose termination due to study drug-related toxicity during the trial.

[0409] A total of 90 subjects were enrolled, and 77 (86%) experienced at least one study drug-related adverse event (TRAE). Grade 3 or higher TRAEs occurred in 36 (40%) subjects, including 14 (41%) subjects at 6.0 mg / kg in Phase Ib, 9 (41%) subjects at 8.0 mg / kg, and 14 (39%) subjects at 8 mg in Phase II. The most common TRAEs included decreased neutrophil count (16%), anemia (12%), and decreased white blood cell count (10%). TRAEs led to drug suspension in 30 (33%) subjects, dose reduction in 3 (3.3%) subjects, and permanent discontinuation in 2 (2.2%) subjects. This suggests that the combination therapy did not significantly increase drug toxicity compared to monotherapy, demonstrating a significant safety advantage for this combination regimen.

[0465] 3. Clinical plan

[0466] 3.1 Research Design

[0467] Phase II

[0468] After four cycles (21 days per cycle) of neoadjuvant treatment with an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (6 mg / kg Q3W or 8 mg / kg Q3W) combined with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg Q3W), patients underwent radical cystectomy (RC) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). In the postoperative adjuvant treatment phase, patients received five cycles (21 days per cycle) of the anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (6 mg / kg Q3W) combined with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg Q3W), followed by eight cycles (21 days per cycle) of monotherapy with the anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg Q3W).

[0469] Phase III

[0470] In this phase, eligible subjects were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group in a 1:1 ratio. Randomization stratification factors were: ECOG (0 vs 1); pathological stage (T2N0 vs T3 / 4aN0 vs T1-4aN1); PD-L1 (CPS ≥ 10 vs CPS < 10). The treatment regimens for the experimental group and the control group (existing standard perioperative treatment regimen) were as follows:

[0471] 1. Experimental Group (Group A): Received 4 cycles (one cycle of 21 days) of neoadjuvant treatment with an anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (6 mg / kg, Q3W) combined with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg, Q3W), followed by radical cystectomy (RC) and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). In the postoperative adjuvant treatment phase, patients received 5 cycles (one cycle of 21 days) of anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (6 mg / kg, Q3W) combined with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg, Q3W), followed by 8 cycles (one cycle of 21 days) of monotherapy with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg, Q3W).

[0472] Subjects in both the experimental and control groups will complete 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy and then have their imaging reviewed (in the same manner as during the screening period) ≤ 5 weeks (35 days + 7 days) before planned RC+PLND surgery to exclude disease progression (confirmed by BICR). Subjects whose imaging examinations show no distant metastases will undergo surgery within 6 weeks after the last neoadjuvant treatment. If the surgery is delayed due to AEs, the subject can undergo surgery outside this time window (up to 12 weeks. If it exceeds 12 weeks, the decision must be made in consultation with the sponsor). If the subject's surgery is delayed for any reason other than AEs (i.e., more than 6 weeks after the last neoadjuvant treatment), the decision can be made in consultation with the sponsor. Suspected distant disease progression (based on imaging findings assessed by the research center) occurring at any pre-operative time point (or during the neoadjuvant treatment period) should be verified as disease progression by BICR as soon as possible.

[0473] Subjects in Group A without radiographic disease progression will continue to receive anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (6 mg / kg, Q3W) combined with anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg, Q3W) combination therapy (adjuvant treatment period, starting 8 weeks ± 14 days after radical cystectomy), up to 5 cycles of anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate (6 mg / kg, Q3W) combined with anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg, Q3W) combination therapy, and then 8 cycles (one cycle of 21 days) of anti-PD-L1 antibody (1200 mg, Q3W) monotherapy to complete a total of approximately 1 year of treatment.

[0474] 3.2 Administration

[0475] ADC-4: intravenous infusion, 6 mg / kg, every 3 weeks; or other doses to be explored / determined.

[0476] Anti-PD-L1 antibody: intravenous drip, 1200 mg, administered once every 3 weeks, each drip time is 30-60 minutes, and one cycle is 21 days (Q3W).
