A Study of DM919 Alone and in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Advanced Solid Tumors

Exclusion Criteria

• •1. Received prior systemic anticancer treatment within 3 weeks before the first dose of study treatment (or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter) or within 4 weeks before the first dose of study treatment in case of nitrosoureas or radio-immuno conjugate therapy.
• •2. Current evidence of Grade ≥2 toxicity of prior therapy, except for any grade alopecia, Grade ≤2 peripheral neuropathy, and the following Grade ≤2 vitiligo, Grade ≤2 psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment and immune related Grade ≤2 endocrine disorders adequately managed by hormonal replacement therapy.
• •3. Any history of discontinuation from prior therapy with anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 inhibitor due to drug-related toxicity.
• •4. Major surgery within 7 days before the first dose of study treatment or planned after the start of treatment, where 'major' is defined as any surgical procedure that requires more than 24 hours admission in a hospital.
• •5. Radiotherapy within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.
• •6. Current evidence of symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases, leptomeningeal carcinomatosis, or untreated spinal cord compression. Symptomatic treated brain metastases are allowed if subjects are clinically stable in the judgement of the investigator.
• •7. Other primary malignancy histologically different than the cancer under study, that has required active treatment within 2 years before the first dose of study treatment or may require active treatment during the treatment period.
• •8. Any history of severe hypersensitivity to monoclonal antibodies or another form of severe hypersensitivity.
• •9. Grade ≥3 viral, bacterial, or fungal infection within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.
• •10. Known active HIV infection, as determined by detectable HIV-RNA viral load.
• •a.Subjects on stable HAART therapy with undetectable HIV-RNA viral load and normal CD4 counts for at least 6 months before the first dose of study treatment are eligible.
• •11. Known active HBV infection, as determined by detectable HBV-DNA viral load.
• •12. Known active HCV infection, as determined by detectable HCV-RNA viral load.
• •13. Known active or latent tuberculosis (TB). Testing for TB is not required at screening.
• •14. Known active SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection, as determined by a positive COVID-19 test result within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.
• •15. Received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks before the first dose of study treatment. Injectable influenza vaccine and COVID-19 vaccine are permitted
• •16. Uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease.
• •17. Autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment (i.e., disease modifying agents, corticosteroids above physiological doses \[\>10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent\] or immunosuppressive drugs) within 2 years before the first dose of study treatment.
• •18. Any history of interstitial lung disease (ILD, including pneumonitis) that required systemic corticosteroid therapy.
• •19. Diagnosis of immunodeficiency or receiving chronic systemic corticosteroid therapy at doses \>10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 14 days before the first dose of study treatment.
• •20. Had an allogeneic solid organ or stem cell transplant.
• •21. Received systemic corticosteroid use at doses \>10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment or other systemic immunosuppressive agents within 4 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.
• •22. Received hematopoietic growth factors (G-SCF, GM-CSF, EPO) or transfusion of blood components (RBC or platelets) within 2 weeks before the first dose of study treatment, or likely to require treatment with these agents during Cycle 1.
• •23. Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
• •24. History or clinical evidence of any surgical or medical condition that the Investigator judges as likely to interfere with the results of the study or pose an additional risk to study subjects, such as rapidly progressive or uncontrolled disease involving a major organ system (e.g., disorders of vascular, cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, gynecologic, hematologic, neurologic, neoplastic, renal, endocrine, autoimmune or an immunodeficiency, or clinically significant active psychiatric or abuse disorders).
• •25. History of chronic substance abuse within 12 months of the start of treatment.
• •26. Sensitive substrates of cytochrome P450 enzymes should be excluded within 2 weeks (or 5 half-lives of the agent, whichever is longer) before the start of dosing in Phase 1a Dose Escalation part of the study.
