  • Active or untreated central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Treated CNS metastases have to show radiographic stability (defined as no CNS progression for at least three weeks from pre or post-radiotherapy brain scan to brain scan performed prior study entry), and patients should not have neurologic sign/symptoms secondary to the brain metastases or RT. Any steroid treatment must be completed ≥ 14 days before first dose of study treatment.
  • Concomitant diseases/conditions: a) History or presence of unstable angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure defined as abnormal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50% assessed by multiple-gated acquisition scan (MUGA) or equivalent by ultrasound (US), or clinically significant valvular heart disease within 12 months prior first study dose. b) Symptomatic arrhythmia or any uncontrolled arrhythmia requiring ongoing treatment. c) Ongoing chronic alcohol consumption, or cirrhosis with Child-Pugh score B or C. d) Active uncontrolled infection. Serious non-healing wound, ulcer or bone fracture. e) Diagnose of immunodeficiency or receiving systemic steroids therapy (more than a daily dose of 10 mg of prednisone or equivalent per day) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 14 days prior to the first study dose. f) Active autoimmune disease that required systemic treatment in the past two years (i.e., with disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs). Patients with vitiligo or resolved childhood asthma/atopy are eligible, as well as patients who require intermittent use of bronchodilators or local steroid injections, patients with Protocol version 4.0 – 27 Feb 2023 Page 12/131 hypothyroidism stable on hormone replacement, patients with insulin-treated controlled type 1 diabetes or Sjogren's syndrome. g) History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organizing pneumonia, drug-induced pneumonitis, idiopathic pneumonitis or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest computed tomography (CT) scans. A history of radiation pneumonitis in radiation field (fibrosis) will be allowed if asymptomatic and not requiring steroids. h) Known history of active tuberculosis (Mycobacterium tuberculosis). i) Ongoing treatment-requiring, non-neoplastic chronic liver disease of any origin. For hepatitis B, this includes positive tests for both Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and quantitative Hepatitis B polymerase chain reaction (PCR). For hepatitis C, this includes positive tests for both Hepatitis C antibody and quantitative Hepatitis C PCR. Patients taking hepatitis-related antiviral therapy within 6 months prior to the first study dose will also be excluded. j) Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. k) Myopathy or any clinical situation that causes significant and persistent elevation of CPK (>2.5 x ULN in two different determinations performed one week apart). l) Limitation of the patient’s ability to comply with the treatment or follow-up procedures. m) Patients who have previously experienced pericarditis, pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade) on prior treatment with other immune-stimulatory anticancer agents. n) Any other major illness that, in the Investigator’s judgment, will substantially increase the risk associated with the patient’s participation in this study.
  • Active COVID19 infection determined by PCR (positive result of SARS-CoV-2 virus), not mandatory if fully vaccinated.
  • More than one prior chemotherapy-containing line (reProtocol version 4.0 – 27 Feb 2023 Page 11/131 challenge with the same initial regimen is not allowed).
  • Patients with radiation therapy (RT) in more than 35% of the bone marrow.
  • History of previous bone marrow and/or stem cell transplantation.
