Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Ability to comprehend and willingness to sign a written ICF for the study.

- Measurable disease based on either radiographic imaging per RECIST 1.1 with at least 1 baseline lesion ≥ 10 mm in maximal diameter for metastatic disease or digital medical photography per WHO criteria with at least 1 baseline lesion in which both the longest diameter and the perpendicular diameter are ≥ 10 mm for externally visible disease.
- ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 (see Section 8.3.4 of the protocol)
You likely can't join if
- cSCC arising in the following locations: • Primary tumors of the vermilion only • Primary site of cancer on the penis, scrotum, and perianal region
- History or evidence of interstitial lung disease, including noninfectious pneumonitis.
- Presence of gastrointestinal conditions that may affect drug absorption, as well as those that interfere with gastrointestinal transit, including gastric bypass surgery, gastric sleeve, or gastric band

- Diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency or receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy at a daily dose exceeding 10 mg of prednisone or equivalent.
- HIV infection and any one or more of the following: CD4+ T-cell count < 200 cells/µL, detectable viral load, or antiretroviral therapy regimen containing moderate or potent CYP3A4/CYP3A5 inhibitors or inducers. Note: Participants modifying their HIV regimen to include only drugs without CYP3A4/5 inhibitors or inducers must be on a stable regimen for > 28 days.
