Purpose

This is a first-in-human, open-label, multicenter, Phase I multiple-ascending dose (MAD) study of single agent lomvastomig (RO7121661), an anti PD-1 (programmed death-1) and TIM-3 (T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3) bispecific antibody, for participants with advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors. The study consists of 2 parts: Dose Escalation (Part A) and Expansion (Parts B1, B2, B3, B4, and B5). The Dose Escalation part will be conducted first to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose for expansion (RDE) based on safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and/or the pharmacodynamic profile of escalating doses of lomvastomig. The Expansion part will enroll tumor-specific cohorts to evaluate anti-tumor activity of the MTD and/or RDE of lomvastomig from Part A (Q2W) and to confirm safety and tolerability in participants with selected tumor types.

Exclusion Criteria

General Exclusion Criteria: - Pregnancy, lactation, or breastfeeding - Known hypersensitivity to any of the components of RO7121661 - Active or untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases - An active second malignancy - Evidence of concomitant diseases, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination findings, or clinical laboratory findings giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of an investigational drug or that may affect the interpretation of the results or render the participant at high risk from treatment complications - Known active or uncontrolled bacterial, viral, fungal, mycobacterial, parasitic, or other infection - Treatment with oral or IV antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 - Active or history of autoimmune disease or immune deficiency - Prior treatment with adoptive cell therapies, such as CAR-T therapies - Concurrent therapy with any other investigational drug <28 days or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter, prior to the first RO7247669 administration - Regular immunosuppressive therapy - Radiotherapy within the last 4 weeks before start of study drug treatment, with the exception of limited palliative radiotherapy - Prior treatment with a T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-3 (TIM-3) inhibitor Additional Specific Exclusion Criteria for Participants with NSCLC who Previously Received Treatment for Metastatic Disease: - Patients with the following mutations, rearrangements, translocations are not eligible: epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR); anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK); ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), BRAFV600E, and neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) Additional Specific Exclusion Criteria for Participants with NSCLC who Did Not Previously Receive Treatment for Metastatic Disease: - Prior therapy for metastatic disease - Adjuvant anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy Additional Specific Exclusion Criteria for Participants with Small-Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC): - Prior therapy with any immune CPIs (such as anti-PD-L1/PD-1, CTLA-4) Additional Specific Exclusion Criteria for Participants with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC): - Prior therapy with any immunomodulatory agents

Arm Groups

ArmDescriptionAssigned Intervention
Experimental
Dose Escalation Part A: Once Every 2 Weeks (Q2W)
Lomvastomig will be administered in treatment cycles once every 2 weeks (Q2W). Dose escalation will be carried out according to a modified continual reassessment method (mCRM) with escalation with overdose control (EWOC) design.
  • Drug: Lomvastomig
    Lomvastomig will be administered intravenously (IV) with a flat dose on the schedule described for each study arm.

Experimental
Expansion Part B1: Metastatic Melanoma Cohort
This cohort will comprise participants with checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) experienced, second line and beyond metastatic melanoma. The starting dose of lomvastomig for Expansion will be derived from the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RDE) and the best dosing schedule determined during Dose Escalation.
