First Line Sintilimab Combined With Anlotinib and Platinum Doublet Chemotherapy in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study is a single-arm, open-lable, single-center phase II clinical trial for patients with advanced or metastatic pleural mesothelioma. The aim of this study was to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sintilimab combined with Anlotinib hydrochloride and platinum-containing dual-agent chemotherapy as first-line therapy in malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Patients with advanced or metastatic (stage IIIB or IV) pleural mesothelioma who had not received previous systemic therapy were screened for eligible subjects to be eligible for enrollment after signing an written informed consent to receive Sintilimab combined with Anlotinib hydrochloride and platinum-containing dual-agent chemotherapy until disease progression (PD), intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, initiation of other antineoplastic therapy, death or other situations for which protocol specified treatment should be discontinued (whichever occurs first). The maximum duration of treatment with Sintilimab is 24 months (in general).

-----------------
Inclusion Criteria: Sign written informed consent before implementing any trial-related procedures; Age ≥ 18 years old. Histologically confirmed, unresectable or inoperable or locally advanced (IIIB stage), recurrent or metastatic (IV stage) malignant pleural mesothelioma. According to the modified version of the evaluation criteria for the efficacy of solid tumor (mRECIST1.1 ), patients have at least one imaging lesion can be measured; Patients have not received any systemic anti-tumor therapy for advanced/metastatic diseases in the past. Patients who have previously received platinum-containing adjuvant / neoadjuvant chemotherapy, or radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy for advanced diseases, such as the interval between disease progression or recurrence and the end of the last chemotherapeutic drug treatment at least 6 months, are allowed to be enrolled in this study. Patients with brain metastasis who are asymptomatic or stable after local treatment are allowed to be included in this study, as long as they meet the following conditions: There are measurable lesions outside the central nervous system. No central nervous system symptoms or no aggravation within at least 2 weeks.

Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 × ULN and creatinine clearance (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault formula) ≥ 60ml; Coagulation function is good, defined as international standardized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5 times ULN; Normal thyroid function is defined as thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) within the normal range. If the baseline TSH is beyond the normal range, subjects with total T3 (or FT3) and FT4 within the normal range can also be enrolled. Myocardial enzyme spectrum is within the normal range (if the researchers comprehensively judge that there is no clinical significance of simple laboratory abnormalities can also be included in the group); (optional) For female patients at childbearing age, they should undergo a urine or serum pregnancy test within 3 days before receiving the first study drug administration (day 1 of cycle 1) and the results be negative. If the urine pregnancy test results cannot be confirmed as negative, a blood pregnancy test is required. Women of non-childbearing age are defined as at least 1 year after menopause or have undergone surgical sterilization or hysterectomy. If there is a risk of pregnancy, all patient (male or female) are required to use contraception with an annual failure rate of less than 1% during the entire treatment period until 120 days after the last study drug administration (or 180 days after the last chemotherapy drug administration).

Note: hepatitis B subjects who meet the following criteria can also be enrolled in the group: Before the first administration, the HBV viral load is less than 1000 copies/ml (200 IU/ml), and the patients should receive anti-HBV treatment during the entire study drug treatment period to avoid viral reactivation; For patients with anti-HBc (+), HBsAg (-), anti-HBs (-) and HBV viral load (-), there is no need to receive preventive anti-HBV therapy. However, the virus needs to be closely monitored for reactivation Active HCV infection subjects (HCV antibody positive and HCV-RNA level higher than the lower limit of detection) Live vaccine is given within 30 days before the first administration (cycle 1, day 1).
