Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from EU CTIS (euclinicaltrials.eu) and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior therapy with a PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2 agent, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) or hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF-2α). Note, this criteria does not apply to participants with immune oncology (IO) exposed ESCC.

Other illness

  • Unable to swallow orally administered medication or presence of a gastrointestinal (GI) disorder that may affect study intervention absorption
  • History of a second malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within 3 years
  • Clinically significant cardiovascular disease within 6 months of first dose of study intervention
  • Moderate to severe hepatic impairment

Other

  • Presence of central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis

Who the study is looking for

  • Diagnosis of one of the following advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) solid tumors, documented by histopathology or cytopathology: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), Colorectal cancer (CRC) (non-microsatellite instability-high [non-MSI-H]/deficient mismatch repair [dMMR]), Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), Biliary tract cancer (BTC) (includes intrahepatic, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma [CCA] and gall bladder cancer), Endometrial cancer (EC), Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC)
  • ESCC Specific Inclusion Criteria: Have experienced radiographic or clinical progression on one prior line of standard systemic therapy (immune oncology (IO) naïve participants) or an anti-PD-1/PD-L1 (IO resistant participants)
  • Disease progression on or since the most recent treatment (does not apply to newly diagnosed unresectable or metastatic HCC or EC).
  • Measurable disease per RECIST v1.1 as assessed locally (by investigator) and verified by BICR
  • Submission of an archival tumor tissue sample or newly obtained core or excisional biopsy of a tumor lesion not previously irradiated
  • HCC Specific Inclusion Criteria: No prior systemic chemotherapy, including anti-VEGF therapy, anti-programmed cell-death (PD-1)/PD-L1 or any systemic investigational anticancer agents for advanced/unresectable HCC (1L)
  • CRC ([non-MSI-H/dMMR) Specific Inclusion Criteria: Received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy for unresectable or metastatic disease which includes fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan and oxaliplatin
  • PDAC Specific Inclusion Criteria: Prior therapy with at least 1 (platinum or gemcitabine containing regimen) but no more than 2 prior systemic therapies for unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer
  • BTC Specific Inclusion Criteria: Received at least 1 prior line of systemic therapy (containing gemcitabine or fluoropyrimidine) for unresectable or metastatic disease
  • EC Specific Inclusion Criteria: Study treatment is for 1L therapy of EC and participants should not have received prior systemic chemotherapy. Exception: May have received 1 prior line of line of systemic platinum-based adjuvant and/or neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the setting of a curative-intent resection, if the recurrence occurred ≥6 months after the last dose of chemotherapy or may have received prior radiation with or without chemotherapy
