Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Patients able to understand and follow instructions during the trial.
- Patients with adequate renal function at Screening, confirmed at Baseline, defined by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥30 mL/min using 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine equation (eGFR =142*min(standardized Scr/K, 1)α*max(standardized Scr/K, 1)-1.200 *0.9938Age *1.012 [if female] where K = 0.7 [females] or 0.9 [males], α = –0.241 [females] or –0.302 [males], min = indicates the minimum of Scr/K or 1, and max = indicates the maximum of Scr/K or 1).
- Patients must be able to undergo MRI or CT scan for tumor follow-up.
- Patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤2.
- Life expectancy of at least 6 months at the time of ICF signature, according to the Investigator’s judgement.
- Patients able and willing to give written informed consent (signed and dated).
You likely can't join if
- Medical and surgical history, and diseases: History of any disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or clinical laboratory finding that, based on the Investigator’s judgement, provides a reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of the IMP or that might affect the interpretation of the trial results or render the patient at high risk for treatment complications.
- Prior and concomitant medication: Treatment in any other clinical trial medication within 30 days before Screening.
- Prior and concomitant medication: Any other condition or treatment that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might interfere with the trial.
- Medical and surgical history, and diseases: Symptomatic brain metastasis.
- Prior and concomitant medication: Current drug or substance abuse.
- Prior and concomitant medication: Chronic concurrent therapy within 2 weeks before the trial treatment or expected therapy during the trial treatment period with: a) corticosteroids (except systemic corticosteroids up to 10 mg prednisolone or equivalent daily dose [oral, muscular, or intravenous]). b) immunosuppressive agents. c) antibiotics. d) any other anticancer therapy or concurrent anticancer treatment (except for other checkpoint inhibitors in combination with the anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody), for example, cytoreductive therapy, radiotherapy with the exception of palliative short course, limited field (i.e., ≤10 fractions and ≤30% bone marrow involvement or per institutional standard) radiotherapy, which may be administered during the trial. However, IMP dosing must be suspended at least 14 days prior to the start of radiotherapy and must not be resumed until at least 14 days after the last radiotherapy fraction, or cytokine therapy, except for erythropoietin.

What rules you out
- Medical and surgical history, and diseases: History of any disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or clinical laboratory finding that, based on the Investigator’s judgement, provides a reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of the IMP or that might affect the interpretation of the trial results or render the patient at high risk for treatment complications.
