A Study of Becotatug Vedotin (MRG003) Combined With Epirubicin as Neoadjuvant Therapy for EGFR-Positive, Unresectable Recurrent Sinonasal Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma
40 participantsStarted 2026-05-01
Plain-language summary
This prospective, multicenter clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant therapy with MRG003 (Becotatug vedotin) combined with epirubicin in patients with EGFR-positive, unresectable recurrent sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SNACC). The primary question is whether this combination can achieve a sufficient objective response rate (ORR) to enable subsequent radical surgery or improve disease control.

Inclusion Criteria:
Age ≥ 18 years, male or female. Histopathologically confirmed primary sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SNACC) that is locally recurrent after prior surgery and/or radiotherapy.
EGFR expression positive by immunohistochemistry (IHC) performed at a central laboratory.
Multidisciplinary team (MDT) assessment at baseline confirms that the tumor is not amenable to radical (R0) surgical resection.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. Adequate bone marrow, hepatic, renal, and cardiac function as defined by protocol-specified laboratory parameters.
Willing to provide written informed consent (including consent for clinical treatment and biospecimen research) and able to comply with study procedures.
Exclusion Criteria:
Prior treatment with any antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that contains monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) as the payload.
Prior systemic chemotherapy containing epirubicin or any other anthracycline within 6 months before study enrollment.
Active uncontrolled infection, or active autoimmune disease requiring systemic therapy.
Symptomatic or urgent (e.g., requiring radiotherapy or surgery) central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
