Melanoma Cohort:

      1. Histologically confirmed metastatic or unresectable melanoma that progressed during or after treatment with a PD-1 inhibitor (excluding bi-specific antibody) with CTLA-4 blocking function.
      2. Must have received at least one BRAF inhibitor with/without a MEK inhibitor if positive with BRAF V600-activating mutation.

RCC Cohort:

    1. Histologically confirmed metastatic or unresectable renal cell cancer (including both clear cell and non-clear histology);
    2. Subjects with clear cell RCC must have failed at least 1 anti-VEGFR TKI treatment and/or anti-PD(L)1 treatment;
    3. For subjects with non-clear cell RCC (e.g. PRCC), treatment naive is permitted.

      • Must have at least one measurable lesion based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
      • Willing to undergo tumor biopsy unless determined medically unsafe or not feasible.
      • For subjects whose last treatment was immunotherapy, must have disease progression confirmed at least 4 weeks after the initial radiographic evidence of progression;
      • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0 or 1.
      • Adequate organ and bone marrow function.
      • Females of childbearing potential may participate provided they agree to practice abstinence; and, if heterosexually active, agree to use at least 2 highly effective contraceptive methods throughout the study and for 3 months following the last dose of HBM4003; and have a negative serum pregnancy test.
      • Females of non-childbearing potential must be post-menopausal or have been surgically sterilized.
      • Male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential must agree to practice abstinence or to use a physician-approved contraceptive method throughout the study and for 3 months following the last dose of study drug.
      • Life expectancy of ≥12 weeks.

Exclusion

Part 1 and Part 2

  • History of severe or not under well controlled allergic diseases, history of severe drug allergy, or are known to be allergic to macromolecular protein preparations or any component of the study drug.
  • Receipt of anticancer medications or investigational drugs within the following intervals before the first administration of the study drug:

    1. CTLA-4 antibody any time prior to study drug administration;
    2. Any PD-1 or PD-L1 or Programmed cell death protein ligand 2 (PDL2)-directed antibody within 8 weeks of study drug administration;
    3. Any cancer vaccines within 3 months prior to first dose of study drug;
    4. Live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to first dose of study drug;
    5. Any other anticancer therapy within 2 weeks prior to first dose of study drug.
  • Not yet recovered from surgery within 28 days prior to first dose of HBM4003 or (immune-related) toxicity related with previous treatment.
  • Concomitant medication or treatments:

    1. Any concurrent chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, or biological therapy for cancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormones on a stable dose for non-cancer related conditions is acceptable. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for advanced prostate cancers is acceptable. Local treatment of isolated non-target lesions for palliative intent is acceptable;
