cannot be confirmed by a urine test, a serum pregnancy test is required.
Non-childbearing potential is defined as follows:

1. Patient is ≥ 45 years of age and has not had menses for > 1 year.

established and preferred contraception for the patient (Information must be captured
appropriately within the site's source documents).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patient has had ≥ 6 prior lines of chemotherapy. Surgery of the recurrence is allowed.

hormonal therapy, radiotherapy) within 21 days or < 5 times the half-life of the most

- Participants with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection who meet the criteria
for anti-HBV therapy may be eligible if the participant is on a suppressive
antiviral therapy before initiation of cancer therapy.

2 years. Replacement therapy is not considered a form of (eg, thyroid hormone or
insulin).

13. diagnosis immunodeficiency receiving steroid any other immunosuppressive within 7 days
prior to first dose study treatment. Patients who have received acute and>/or low-dose
systemic immunosuppressive medications (e.g,, a one-time dose of dexamethasone for
nausea or chronic use of ≤ 10 mg/day of prednisone or dose equivalent corticosteroid)
may be enrolled in the study after discussion with and approval by the Sponsor. The
use of inhaled corticosteroids and mineralocorticoids (e.g., fludrocortisone) is
allowed.

investigational device within 4 weeks of the first dose of treatment.

18. Patient is considered a poor medical condition due to a serious, uncontrolled medical
disorder, non-malignant systemic disease, or active infection requiring systemic
therapy. Specific examples include, but are not limited to, active, non-infectious
pneumonitis; uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia; recent (within 90 days) myocardial
infarction; uncontrolled major seizure disorder; unstable spinal cord compression;
superior vena cava syndrome; or any psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that
would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the study (including
obtaining informed consent).

19. Patients with known history of non-infectious pneumonitis that required steroids or
has current pneumonitis.

20. Use of any of the following immunomodulatory agents within 28 days prior to the first
dose of study drug:

- Interferons

- Interleukins

- Live vaccine Note: Examples of live vaccines include, but are not limited to, the
following: measles, mumps, rubella, varicella/zoster, yellow fever, rabies, BCG,
and typhoid vaccine. mRNA and adenoviral-based COVID-19 vaccines are considered
non-live and are not exclusionary. Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are
generally killed virus vaccines and are allowed as other killed vaccines, if done
at least 2 weeks prior the first dose of study drug; however, intranasal
influenza vaccines (eg, FluMist®) are live attenuated vaccines and are not
allowed.

21. Patient who are pregnant or lactating, or plan to become pregnant or lactate during
