Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Phase 1a - Dose Escalation Phase 1a is a dose escalation study of DCSZ11 as monotherapy in Part 1 and in combination with pembrolizumab in Part 2. DCSZ11 dose levels may be escalated up to the maximum tolerated dose level or to the maximum planned dose level of 20mg/kg. Patients will receive DCSZ11 IV initially every 3 weeks.
Phase 1b - Dose Expansion/Optimization in Select Indications Phase 1b will evaluate DCSZ11 in combination with pembrolizumab in select indications following a Simon two-stage like design that allows for dose optimization.
Phase 1b - Standard-of-Care (SOC) Combinations Safety Lead-in/ Expansion in Select Indications A safety lead-in using the BOIN design followed by a Simon two-stage like design will be used to evaluate DCSZ11 in combination with standard of care in select indications. Patients will receive DCSZ11 IV at one of the dose escalation dose levels/schedule (or dose/schedule selected for optimization/expansion). Once the safety lead-in is completed, a Bayesian continuous toxicity monitoring will be used to monitor for unacceptable toxicity in expansions.
