Brief Summary

This is a study for people with locally advanced or metastatic cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful. Adults aged 18 and over with advanced cancer with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) overexpressing can join the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called YH32364 helps people with locally advanced or metastatic cancers with EGFR overexpression.

Detailed Description

YH32364 is a new type of immunotherapy called a bispecific antibody that targets both Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) and 4-1BB. EGFR is a gene involved in cancer growth, and many cancer treatments aim to target it. 4-1BB, an immune-modulating protein, plays an important role in boosting T cell activity to combat cancer.

YH32364 is a treatment designed to activate 4-1BB specifically in tumors, aiming to avoid the liver-related side effects seen with previous 4-1BB treatments. It also helps block EGFR signals, assumed to make EGFR-targeted therapies more effective by overcoming resistance.

This study is consists of two parts. In Part 1, participants will be assigned sequentially to one of six dose levels, ranging from the lowest to the highest dose as determined by the sponsor, in order to identify an appropriate dosage.

In Part 2, participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two optimal dose levels identified in Part 1 to confirm the recommended dose.

The YH32364 will be administered via intravenous (IV) infusion once every two weeks. Participants will be required to visit the study site regularly for treatment and assessments. During all the visits, the doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

YH32364YH32364Dose Escalation Part: Dose Escalation part is designed to assess the safety and tolerability of YH32364 and to identify the Maximum Tolerated dose (MTD) and/or two dose levels for recommended dose (RD) selection. Dose Expansion Part: Dose Expansion part will consist of multiple cohorts by cancer types. Cohort 1 will be initiated to determine the RD after completion of Part 1. The RD will be determined among two dose levels investigated in Cohort 1 based on the totality of available data including PK, biomarkers, dose-response, safety, and efficacy.
