  14. Patients who received a potent inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A4 within 1 week prior to the first dose;
  15. Prior radical radiothearpy within past 4 weeks;
  16. Prior major surgery within past 4 weeks (diagnostic surgery excluded);
  17. Prior live vaccine therapy within past 4 weeks;

  20. Males or female of childbearing potential refuse to use using a reliable form of contraception (eg, oral contraceptives, intrauterine device, control sex desire, double barrier method of condom and spermicidal) during the treatment period and for at least 12 months after the last dose of study drug.
  21. Underlying medical condition that, in the Investigator's opinion, would increase the risks of study drug administration or obscure the interpretation of toxicity determination or adverse events.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is designed as Phase II/III. Phase II is aimed to evaluate safety and efficacy of Simmtecan and the 5-FU/LV regimen (FOLFSIM regimen) plus Toripalimab. Phase III is aimed to verify inferiority of the overall survival of FOLFSIM regimen plus Toripalimab in comparison with EP/EC in advanced or metastatic neuroendocrine cancer.
Detailed Description
This is a Phase II/III, randomized, two-part, multi-center study, in which subjects with advanced or metastatic neuroendocrine carcinoma will be enrolled. This study will be conducted in two parts: Part 1, the Phase II study was to: (i) evaluate the safety and tolerability of the FOLFSIM regimen plus Toripalimab; and (ii) identify the recommended dose; (iii) assess the antitumor activity; (iv) the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of the drugs in the regimen. Part 2, the Phase III study was to verify inferiority of FOLFSIM regimen plus Toripalimab compared with the current standard chemotherapy (EP/EC regimen) in the first-line treatment of advanced or metastatic neuroendocrine carcinoma.
