About This Trial

This is a single-arm, multicenter trial of cadonilimab (AK104) with adriamycin in patients with first-line advanced soft tissue sarcoma. the primary objective is to evaluate objective response rate of cadonilimab with adriamycin.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 2 trials evaluate whether a treatment actually works against Advanced Soft-tissue Sarcoma and continue monitoring side effects. Phase 2 enrolls larger groups (typically 100–300 patients) and produces the first real efficacy signal. A successful Phase 2 readout is what unlocks the much larger Phase 3 confirmatory trials needed for FDA approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 53 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Advanced Soft-tissue Sarcoma subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Patients who were pathologically confirmed soft tissue sarcoma (soft tissue sarcomas other than alveolar/embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, clear cell sarcoma, extraosseous Ewing sarcoma, alveolar soft tissue sarcoma, well differentiated liposarcoma, extraosseous myxoid chondrosarcoma, etc.) - The patient was diagnosed as progressive and the investigators determined that the lesion was not suitable for surgical treatment - The patients had not received systemic therapy (including chemotherapy, targeted therapy and bioimmunotherapy) for advanced soft tissue sarcoma.
