line of therapy in the locally advanced setting or post platinum-based chemotherapy,
including in a neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting or in combination with radiation
therapy.

not limited to checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2,
anti-CD137, or anti-CTLA-4 antibody, or any other antibody or drug specifically
targeting T cell co-stimulation or checkpoint pathways, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase
pathway inhibitors, cancer vaccines, adoptive cell therapies, or other cytokine
therapies
- Demonstrated adequate organ function, as defined in protocol, within 28 days of
treatment initiation

respectively, following the last dose of study drug. Female partner may use either an
intrauterine device or hormonal contraception and continue until 3 months following
the last dose of study drug. This criterion may be waived for male patients who have
had a vasectomy 90 days months before signing the informed consent form (ICF) or a
penectomy.

treatment) for at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug(s).
- Participant cannot be receiving any chronic systemic steroids (prednisone or
equivalent) > 20 mg daily, for at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study
drug(s).
- Participants with small, untreated, asymptomatic central nervous system (CNS)
metastases without associated edema, shift, or requirement for steroids are eligible
after discussion with the Medical Monitor, i.e. the Principal Investigator.
- No stereotactic radiation or craniotomy within 4 weeks of Cycle 1 Day 1
- No new central nervous system lesions on repeat radiographic imaging 4 weeks or more
from last treatment
- No clinically significant symptoms secondary to brain metastases
- Participants must also consent to allow acquisition of existing formalin-fixed
paraffin-embedded (FFPE) material (archival tumor tissue), either a block or unstained
slides for planned correlative studies.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Use of an investigational agent or an investigational device within 4 weeks or within
a time interval less than at least 5 half-lives of the investigational agent,
whichever is shorter, before administration of first dose of study drug.
- Active, known or suspected autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment within the
past 2 months or a documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease that
requires systemic steroids or immunosuppressive agents. (Exceptions include any
patient on 10 mg or less of prednisone or equivalent, patients with vitiligo,
hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement, Type I diabetes, Graves' disease,
Hashimoto's disease, alopecia areata, eczema, or with PI approval.)
- History of allergy or hypersensitivity to study drug components
- History of organ transplant that requires use of immune suppressive agents
- Current active pneumonitis within 90 days of planned start of the study or a known
history of interstitial lung disease, drug-related pneumonitis, or radiation
pneumonitis requiring steroid treatment.
- Prior surgery or radiotherapy encompassing >20% of the bone marrow within 14 days of
therapy. Patients must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities.
- Active infection requiring systemic therapy; a known history of active tuberculosis.
- Has known active hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (e.g., hepatitis B surface antigen
[HBsAg] reactive) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (e.g., HCV ribonucleic acid
[RNA] qualitative is detected)
- Has known immunodeficiency or active human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1/2 antibodies)
with CD 4 count < 400 for in the past 6 months.
- Prolonged corrected QT interval (QTcF) > 450 ms for men
- History of unstable or deteriorating cardiac disease within the previous 6 months
prior to screening including but not limited to the following:
1. Unstable angina or myocardial infarction
2. Congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] Class III or IV)
3. Uncontrolled clinically significant arrhythmias
- Systolic BP >140 mmHg or diastolic BP >90 mmHg that has not been adequately treated or
controlled. Need for > 2 antihypertensive medications for management of hypertension
(excluding diuretics)
- Must not have received a transfusion (platelets or red blood cells) ' 4 weeks prior to
initiating protocol therapy.
- Must not have received colony stimulating factors (e.g., granulocyte
colony-stimulating factor, granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor, or
recombinant erythropoietin) within 4 weeks prior initiating protocol therapy.
- Has had any known Grade 3 or 4 anemia, neutropenia or thrombocytopenia due to prior
chemotherapy that persisted > 4 weeks and was related to the most recent treatment.
- Must not have any known history of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid
