  • If participant is negative for HBsAg, but hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and/or hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) positive, a hepatitis B DNA test will be performed; if the test is positive, the participant will be excluded.
  • Participant with positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) serology, but negative HCV RNA test results, is eligible.
  • Participant treated for HCV with undetectable viral load results is eligible.
• Participant has a malignancy for which treatment is required, has a history of another malignancy within the past 5 years, except malignancies for which participant received curative therapy without recurrence for the last 5 years (e.g., adequately resected non-melanoma skin cancer, localized prostate cancer), or had treatment for carcinoma in situ.
• Participant has an active autoimmune disease or other medical condition that has required high dose systemic steroids at the time of screening.
• Participant has sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, formerly known as veno-occlusive disease; if present, should be stable or improving.
• Participant has a known or suspected hypersensitivity to ASP546C or any components of the formulation used.
• Participant has a clinically significant disease or comorbidity that in the opinion of the investigator may adversely affect the safe delivery of treatment within this study or make the participant unsuitable for study participation.

Lab values

• Participant has significant cardiovascular disease, including any of the following:
  • Congestive heart failure (defined as New York Heart Association Class III or IV), myocardial infarction, unstable angina, coronary angioplasty, coronary stenting, coronary artery bypass graft, cerebrovascular accident or hypertensive crisis within 6 months prior to the first dose of study intervention.
  • History of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias (i.e., sustained ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation or Torsades de Pointes), cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic medications (a participant with rate controlled atrial fibrillation for \> 1 month prior to the first dose of study intervention is eligible) or obligate use of cardiac pacemaker.
  • QTc interval \> 470 msec
  • Documented history or family history of congenital long QT syndrome.

Other

• Participant has clinically significant third spacing (large amount of pleural fluid or ascites) that requires frequent percutaneous draining or requires placement of a drainage catheter for adequate control.

• Cohorts 1 and 2 (gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma) only: Participant has known HER2 positive status defined as immunohistochemistry (IHC) 3+ or IHC 2+/ in situ hybridization (ISH) +. ISH positive is defined as HER2/ chromosome enumeration probe 17 (CEP17) ratio ≥ 2.0 or an average HER2 copy number ≥ 6.0 signals/cell.
