within 7 days prior to the first dose of investigational product and after 3 cycles of
treatment(prior to cycle 4-day 1: mandatory only if available) and, at the end of

been free from menses for > 1 year). Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is
pregnant while she is participating in this study, she should inform her treating
physician immediately.

identified at screening may be rescreened after the lesion(s) have been appropriately
treated; patients with treated brain metastases should be neurologically stable for 4
weeks post-treatment and prior to study enrollment, and off corticosteroids for at
least 2 weeks before administration of study drugs, and treated lesions should
demonstrate no new growth on the re-screening scan.

history of HBV and HCV infection
- Has received any investigational vaccines (i.e., those not licensed or approved for
emergency use). Note: Any licensed COVID-19 vaccine (including for Emergency Use) is
