- Brief Summary
The main aim of this study is to check if people with advanced solid tumors have side effects from dazostinag, and to check how much dazostinag they can receive without getting significant side effects from it when given alone and in combination with pembrolizumab. The study will be conducted in two phases including a dose escalation phase and a dose expansion phase. In the dose escalation phase, escalating doses of dazostinag are being tested alone and in combination with pembrolizumab to treat participants who have advanced or metastatic solid tumors. In the dose expansion phase, dazostinag will be studied with pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in participants with untreated metastatic or recurrent, unresectable squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN) and in combination with pembrolizumab in third-line or later recurrent locally advanced or metastatic microsatellite instability-high/mismatch repair deficient (MSI-H/dMMR) and third-line recurrent locally advanced or metastatic microsatellite stable/mismatch repair proficient (MSS/pMMR) colorectal cancer (CRC).
- Detailed Description
The drug being tested in this study is called dazostinag. Dazostinag is being tested to treat people who have advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
The study will enroll approximately 374 participants. Part 1 consists of an initial Safety Lead-in to Dose Escalation Phase; Part 2 and Part 3 compose the Expansion Phase in 2 specific indications namely, previously untreated metastatic or recurrent, unresectable SCCHN (Part 2) and third-line or later recurrent locally advanced or metastatic MSI-H/dMMR and third-line recurrent locally advanced or metastatic MSS/pMMR CRC (Part 3). Participants will be assigned to the following treatment groups in the respective Phases of the study:
* Part 1 (Dose Escalation Phase): Safety Lead-in + Dazostinag single agent (SA) \[Part 1A\] Dazostinag 0.1 milligram (mg) in the Safety Lead-in followed by Dazostinag as escalating doses (0.2 mg and above) in Part 1A
* Part 1B (Combination Dose Escalation Phase): Dazostinag as escalating doses (0.2 mg and above) + Pembrolizumab
* Japan Safety Lead-in: Dazostinag SA 5.0 mg in the Safety Lead-in± Pembrolizumab in Arms A and B. Additional dose levels of Dazostinag (such as 14.0 mg) in combination with pembrolizumab may be explored during the Japan safety lead-in considering recommended dose for expansion (RDE1) as 5.0 mg and dose optimization.
Once a safe dose is recommended from Part 1, participants of select advanced or metastatic solid tumors will receive dazostinag in below defined cohorts in the expansion phase:
* Part 2A (SCCHN Combined Positive Score \[CPS\] ≥ 1 Dose Expansion Phase): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab\*
* Part 2B (SCCHN Dose Expansion Phase): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy
* Part 3A (Expansion Phase in CRC): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab in MSI-H/dMMR CRC
* Part 3B (Expansion Phase in CRC): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab in MSS/pMMR CRC
This multi-center trial will be conducted worldwide. The overall time to participate in this study is 62.9 months. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, including 30 days after last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment. Participants in Parts 2 and 3 will be followed for survival for up to 12 months after the last dose of study drug.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1.
-
Dazostinag SA (dose escalation Part 1A):
o With histologically confirmed (cytological diagnosis is acceptable) advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have no standard therapeutic options or are intolerant to these therapies.
-
Dazostinag in combination with pembrolizumab (dose escalation Parts 1B and Japan safety lead-in):
- With histologically confirmed (cytological diagnosis is acceptable) advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have no standard therapeutic options or are intolerant to them, including:
- Tumors that have relapsed or are refractory to anti-programmed cell death ligand protein 1 (anti PD-(L)-1) therapy.
- Tumors that are naive to anti-PD-(L)-1 therapy.
-
For expansion phase only:
- SCCHN (Part 2):
- Participants with histologically confirmed (cytological diagnosis is acceptable) metastatic or recurrent, unresectable SCCHN that is considered incurable by local therapies. Participants should not have had prior systemic therapy administered in the recurrent or metastatic setting. Systemic therapy which was completed more than 6 months before signing consent if given as part of multimodal treatment of locally advanced disease is allowed.
- Anatomic subsites to be included are oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, larynx, nasal cavity, and paranasal sinuses (maxillary, ethmoid, sphenoid, and frontal). The exception to this is nasopharyngeal cancer and salivary gland tumors, which will not be included.
- Participants with oropharyngeal cancer or tumors arising in the paranasal sinuses (maxillary, ethmoid, sphenoid, and frontal) must agree to provide archival tissue for human papilloma virus (HPV) testing or if known, HPV testing results (using CINtec® p16 Histology assay is preferred but not required) and a 70% cutoff point must be provided. Alternatively, archival tissue or a fresh excisional or core needle biopsy (≥ 2 cores) is required for the determination of HPV status. If HPV status was previously tested using this method (CINtec® p16 Histology assay is preferred but not required), no additional testing is required. Archival tissue can be obtained up to 90 days prior to screening. Samples that are older than 90 days at screening may be used after consultation with the sponsor.
- For Part 2A, tumors must have a PD-L1 CPS ≥ 1. Participants must agree to provide fresh tumor biopsy for analysis from a core or excisional biopsy (fine needle aspirate is not sufficient) at screening for PD-L1 CPS assessment by a central laboratory. This specimen may be the diagnostic sample for participants with a new diagnosis of metastatic SCCHN. Participants for whom newly obtained samples cannot be obtained (eg, inaccessible or participant safety concern) may submit an archived specimen only upon agreement from the Sponsor. Archival tissue can be obtained up to 90 days prior to screening provided there was no other treatment from the time of biopsy until the start of study treatment. For Part 2B, any CPS is eligible but fresh or archival tissue is required for confirmation of CPS status. Collection of the tissue samples for PD-L1 assessments for Part 2B can be discontinued by the sponsor if sufficient data has been collected or dazostinag activity does not justify further collection.
