• Concurrent disease or any clinically significant abnormality
• Use of strong inducers of CYP3A within 14 days of the first dose of study drug; Part A Phase 1b (Dose Expansion) Exclusion Criteria:; The exclusion criteria for this cohort are the same as the criteria from Phase 1a with the addition of the following:
• Any prior treatment with chemotherapy; Part B Cohort 1 (EPI-7386 in combination with AAP) Exclusion Criteria:; The exclusion criteria for this cohort are the same as the criteria from Phase 1a with the addition of the following:
