Study Summary

This study aims to demonstrate that, in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic iodine - refractory differentiated thyroid cancer who have failed previous VEGFR - targeted therapy, AL2846 can significantly prolong progression - free survival (PFS) compared with placebo.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants voluntarily join the study, sign the informed consent form, anddemonstrate good compliance.

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastaticdifferentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).

  • Age: 18 years ≤ age <75 years (calculated based on the date of signing the informedconsent form).

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score: 0-1.

  • Anticipated survival >12 weeks.

  • At least one measurable lesion confirmed by RECIST 1.1 criteria.

  • Disease progression (per RECIST 1.1) after receiving no more than 2 lines (no morethan 3 types) lines of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (VEGFR TKI) therapy

  • Confirmed iodine-refractory status, defined by one or more of the following:

  1. Lesions show no iodine uptake on post-Iodine-131 therapy whole-body scan andare unlikely to benefit from further Iodine-131 therapy.

  2. Previously iodine-avid lesions progressively lose iodine uptake afterIodine-131 therapy.

  3. Mixed iodine-avid and non-iodine-avid lesions in the same patient with nobiochemical response.

  4. Iodine-avid lesions with disease progression (radiologically confirmed) within 12 months.

  5. Cumulative Iodine-131 dose ≥600 mCi (22 GBq) with no disease response (radiologically confirmed).

  • Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) ≤0.5 mIU/L under TSH-suppressive therapy.

  • Laboratory parameters meeting the following criteria:

  1. Hemoglobin (HGB) ≥90 g/L.

  2. Absolute neutrophil count (NEUT) ≥1.5×10⁹/L.

  3. Platelet count (PLT) ≥90×10⁹/L.

  4. Total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤1.5×ULN.

  5. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and Aspartate transferase (AST) ≤2.5×ULN.

  6. Creatinine clearance (CCR) ≥50 mL/min.

  7. Prothrombin time (PT), Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), andInternational Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤1.5×ULN (without anticoagulationtherapy).

  8. Serum albumin (ALB) ≥30 g/L (no albumin infusion within 7 days prior toscreening).

  • For participants of childbearing potential: Agreement to use effective contraceptionduring the study and for 6 months after study completion. Females must have anegative serum/urine pregnancy test within 7 days before enrollment; males mustagree to effective contraception during and for 6 months post-study.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with undifferentiated thyroid carcinoma or medullary thyroid carcinoma;

  • Patients who have had or currently have other malignancies. The following twosituations are eligible for enrollment: other malignancies treated with a singlesurgery and achieving a disease - free survival (DFS) of 5 consecutive years; curedcervical carcinoma in situ, non - melanoma skin cancer, and superficial bladdertumors [Ta (non - invasive tumor), Tis (carcinoma in situ), and T1 (tumor invadingthe basement membrane)].

  • Those with multiple factors affecting oral medications (such as difficulty inswallowing, chronic diarrhea, and intestinal obstruction, etc.);

  • Adverse reactions from previous treatments have not recovered to a CommonTerminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0. grade score ≤ 1, exceptfor grade 2 alopecia, grade 2 peripheral neuropathy, grade 2 anemia, non -clinically significant and asymptomatic grade 2 laboratory abnormalities, andhypothyroidism stabilized by hormone replacement therapy, and other toxicitiesjudged by the investigator to have no safety risks.

  • Known allergy to the excipient components of the study drug.

  • Subjects who have participated in and used other anti - tumor clinical trial drugswithin 4 weeks before randomization.

  • As judged by the investigator, there are situations that seriously endanger thesafety of the subject or affect the subject's completion of the study.
