a study of yl202 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer

Conditions: Non Small Cell Lung Cancer; Breast Cancer

Summary: this is a phase 1, multicenter, open-label, first-in-human study of yl202 conducted in the united states and china. the study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of yl202 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor (egfr)-mutated nsclc or hormone receptor (hr)-positive and her2-negative bc, which have been heavily treated by standard treatment.

patient develops disease relapse/progression during or within 6 months after the end of the (neo-)adjuvant therapy, or radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the treatment regimen will be counted as one line of treatment for locally advanced or metastatic disease, for the purpose of this inclusion criteria. 9. have at least 1 measurable tumor lesion according to response evaluation criteria in
