Brief summary: In this study, the safety, tolerability and preliminary effectiveness of GNC-039 in patients with relapsed/refractory or metastatic glioma or other solid tumors will be investigated to assess the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD) for MTD is not reached of GNC-039.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

4. KPS≥60 points.
5. The expected survival as determined by the researchers was ≥3 months.
6. Hematological functions meet the following requirements: neutrophil absolute count (ANC) ≥1.5×109/L, platelet count ≥75×109/L, hemoglobin ≥90g/L.
7. Renal function meets the following requirements: creatinine (Cr) ≤1.5 ULN and creatinine clearance (Ccr) ≥50 mL/min (based on the calculation criteria of the study center), urinary protein ≤2+ or \< 1000mg/24h (urine).
8. Liver functions meet the following requirements: Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤3.0×ULN; Total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN (Gilbert's syndrome ≤3×ULN).
9. Coagulation function: fibrinogen ≥1.5g/L; Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤1.5×ULN; Prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5×ULN.
10. A fertile female subject or a fertile male subject with a fertile partner must use highly effective contraception from the date of informed consent until 12 weeks after the last dosing. Serum pregnancy tests must be negative for fertile female subjects within -10 to -3 days prior to initial dosing.
11. Subject is able and willing to comply with visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study-related procedures as specified in the study protocol.
12. For glioma patients: a. There must be a pathological diagnosis and a definite diagnosis of high-grade glioma; b. MRI diagnosis supported recurrence; c. Presence of at least one measurable tumor lesion according to RANO criteria; Or subjects receiving surgical treatment after recurrence; d. Archived primary or recurrent tumor tissue or sections that can be submitted to the Center for review (no less than 10 pathological white slices of 3-5μm or corresponding tissue blocks should be provided). If patients are unable to provide tumor tissue specimens, the Center may inform the sponsor and enroll them.
13. For patients with other solid tumors: a. Histologically or cytologically confirmed recurrent/refractory or metastatic solid tumors with disease progression confirmed by imaging or other objective evidence after standard treatment; Or subjects with refractory solid tumors who cannot tolerate standard therapy or have contraindications to standard therapy; b. Must have at least one measurable lesion that meets the RECIST v1.1 definition.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patients who are allergic to immunoglobulin or any component of the injectable formulation of GNC-039.
2. Patients with active infections requiring intravenous antibiotics who did not complete treatment 1 week prior to enrollment, except those who received prophylactic antibiotics for puncture or biopsy.
3. Human immunodeficiency virus antibody (HIVAb) positive, active tuberculosis, active hepatitis B virus infection (HBsAg positive or HBcAb positive with HBV-DNA copy number ≥ULN) or hepatitis C virus infection (HCV-RNA≥ULN).
4. Toxicity from prior antitumor therapy did not decrease to ≤ grade 1 as defined in CTCAE version 5.0 (except for toxicities that the investigators judged to be of no safety risk, such as alopecia, grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity, stable hypothyroidism after hormone replacement therapy, etc.).
