| Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female age = 18 years at the time of informed consent.
- Be capable, willing, and able to provide written informed consent.
- Be willing to comply with clinical trial instructions and requirements, including
tumor biopsies (if feasible and required per protocol).
- Patients must have a locally advanced or metastatic cancer, a malignant solid tumor
that has progressed on at least one line of systemic therapy or for which no standard
treatment is available, or the participant is intolerant to available treatment.
- In the dose escalation phase study patients must have a histologically or
cytologically confirmed malignant solid tumor that has progressed on at least one
prior standard of care systemic therapy, where available, or declined standard of care
systemic therapy.
- In the dose expansion phase patients must have a histologically or cytologically
confirmed antiPD1/PD-L1 undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma or myxofibrosarcoma,
angiosarcoma, or bone sarcoma or merkel cell carcinoma. Patients with UPS/MFS,
angiosarcoma and MCC must have progressed on or be refractory to anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1
therapy.
- In the dose escalation phase an upper bound weight limit restriction will be used for
dose levels 5 and 6. Hence, patients must weight =90kg and =70kg in order to be
eligible to enroll in dose level 5 and 6 of the dose escalation phase, respectively.
- Adequate performance status: ECOG 0 or 1/KPS 100-70%.
- Life expectancy of at least three months after the first CRD3874 infusion, according
to the Investigator's opinion
- Presence of measurable disease per RECIST v1.1.Target lesion(s) must not be chosen
from a previously irradiated field unless there has been radiographically and/or
pathologically documented tumor progression in that lesion prior to enrollment.
- In the dose expansion phase , participants must agree to have a pretreatment tumor
biopsy for research purposes. Participants in whom biopsy is technically not feasible
or in whom the associated procedure would result in unacceptable risk, in the opinion
of the Investigator, or patients who do not wish to have a biopsy, archival tissue
(most recently procured sample where tissue is available) may be used instead, if
available.
- In the dose expansion phase , participants must agree to on-treatment tumor biopsy for
research purposes. Participants in whom biopsy is technically not feasible or in whom
would result in unacceptable risk, in the opinion of the Investigator, or patients who
do not wish to have a biopsy- may be exempted from the biopsy requirement with
discussion with the Principal Investigator .
- Female subject of childbearing potential (defined as a sexually mature female who has
not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy or who has not been naturally
postmenopausal for at least 24 consecutive months) should have a negative serum
pregnancy testing at screening visit and within 72 hours prior to the first dose of
study medication.

- Platelet count = 100,000/mm3 (100 x 10^9 /L)
- Serum bilirubin = 1.2x upper limit of normal (ULN) OR direct bilirubin = ULN for
participants with total bilirubin level > 1.2x ULN
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) = 2.5x ULN OR = 5x ULN for participants with

participant is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or partial
thromboplastin time (PTT) is within therapeutic range of intended use of
anticoagulants.
- Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) = 1.5x ULN unless participant is
receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT and PTT is within therapeutic range
of intended use of anticoagulants
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) > 50%, as measured by echocardiogram
(2D-ECHO) or multi-gated acquisition scan (MUGA)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Known prior severe hypersensitivity to an investigational product or any component of
the study drug therapy's formulations including polyethylene glycol (PEG), (NCI CTCAE
v5.0 Grade = 3)
- Evidence of clinically significant immunosuppression such as the following:
- Primary immunodeficiency state such as Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease
- Concurrent opportunistic infection
- Receiving systemic immunosuppressive therapy (> 2 weeks) including oral steroid
doses > 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent within 7 days prior to enrollment.
In the setting of non-immune mediated indications for use, chronic/active low
dose steroid (equivalent to </=10mg/day prednisone) use may be permitted at the
discretion of the principal investigator.
- Current use of immunosuppressive medication, EXCEPT for the following:
I. Intranasal, inhaled, ocular, topical steroids, or local steroid injection (e.g.,
intraarticular injection) II. Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses = 10 mg/day of
prednisone or equivalent III. Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions
(e.g., CT scan premedication)
- Prior organ transplantation, including allogenic stem-cell transplantation.
Consideration will be given to allow patients with a history of autologous
transplantation enroll if they are at least 5 years beyond the completion of the
transplant pending discussion with the principal investigator.
- History or evidence of symptomatic autoimmune disease (e.g., pneumonitis,
glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, or other), or history of active autoimmune disease
that has required systemic treatment (i.e., use of corticosteroids, immunosuppressive
drugs or biological agents used for treatment of autoimmune diseases) in past 2 years
prior to enrollment. Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine for hypothyroidism, insulin
for diabetes or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or
pituitary insufficiency) is not considered a form of systemic treatment for autoimmune
disease.
- Systemic antibiotics received = 7 days prior to the first dose of study drugs.
- Uncontrolled medical condition including current active infection requiring systemic
therapy or symptomatic congestive heart failure within 6 months that in the
investigators opinion compromise the ability of the patient to complete all study
related requirements safely

the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to starting study
therapy
- Evidence of clinically significant interstitial lung disease, history of interstitial
lung disease, or active, noninfectious pneumonitis related to prior immunotherapy
treatment.
