• Received prior systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy, biological therapy, radiotherapy, or major surgery within 3 weeks prior to first dose of study drug; for tyrosine kinase inhibitor or similar within 4 × half-life prior to first dose of study drug. A 1-week washout is permitted for palliative radiation to non-central nervous system disease, with Sponsor approval.
• Participants who have received prior CTLA-4 therapy may be enrolled in selected indications upon agreement with the Sponsor.
• Persistent toxicity of NCI CTCAE version 5.0 Grade \> 1 severity that is related to prior therapy. Note: Sensory neuropathy, hypothyroidism or alopecia of Grade ≤ 2 are acceptable. Other Grade 2 toxicities of prior treatments that are controlled with medication (for example, diabetes or hypertension) may be permitted with sponsor approval.
• Expected to require any other form of systemic or localized antineoplastic therapy while on trial (including maintenance therapy with another agent, radiation therapy, and/or surgical resection).
• History of:
  • Severe (Grade ≥ 3) hypersensitivity reaction to a fully human monoclonal antibodies
  • Immune-related adverse event requiring treatment with systemic steroids for \> 7 days excluding Grade 1 or 2 rash.
  • Interstitial lung disease or lung disease which may interfere with the assessment of pneumonitis.
  • Uncontrolled asthma (that is, ≥ 3 features of partly controlled asthma)
  • Pneumonitis that has required oral or IV corticosteroids.
• Receiving systemic corticosteroid therapy 1 week prior to the first dose of study drug or receiving any other form of systemic immunosuppressive medication. Note: Corticosteroid use as a premedication for IV contrast allergies/reactions is allowed. Participants who are receiving daily corticosteroid replacement therapy are also an exception to this rule. Daily prednisone at doses of ≤ 7.5 mg or equivalent hydrocortisone dose are examples of permitted replacement therapy. Use of inhaled or topical corticosteroids is permitted.
• Brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases with the following exceptions: Note: Brain metastases which have been treated with either surgical resection or stereotactic radio surgery. These participants must be off steroids ≥ 10 days prior to enrollment for the purpose of managing their brain metastases. Repeat brain imaging following surgical resection or stereotactic radiosurgery is not required if their last brain magnetic resonance imaging is within screening window. Note: Untreated isolated brain metastases that are too small for treatment by surgical resection or stereotactic radiosurgery (that is, 1-2 mm) and/or of uncertain etiology are potentially eligible but must be approved by the sponsor.
• Has had an allogeneic tissue/solid organ transplant, except for corneal transplants.
• Received locoregional therapy (for example, transcatheter chemoembolization, radiation, surgery) within 6 weeks or yttrium-90 within 12 weeks.
