    pegylated alpha/beta-biased engineered interleukin-2
Experimental
Part B: STK-012 every three weeks (Q3W) monotherapy dose escalation
STK-012 will be administered in sequential ascending doses as monotherapy SC Q3W until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent.
  • Drug: STK-012
    pegylated alpha/beta-biased engineered interleukin-2
Experimental
Part C: STK-012 Q3W + pembrolizumab dose escalation
STK-012 will be administered in sequential ascending doses SC Q3W in combination with a fixed dose of pembrolizumab intravenously (IV) Q3W until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent.
  • Drug: STK-012
    pegylated alpha/beta-biased engineered interleukin-2
  • Drug: Pembrolizumab
    anti-PD-1 humanized monoclonal antibody
Experimental
Part D: Dose expansions

Detailed Description

The phase 1a portion of the study is standard 3+3 dose escalation design to evaluate STK-012 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with selected solid tumors who have progressed after standard of care treatments. The phase 1b portion of the study includes dose expansions to evaluate STK-012 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab at the candidate recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in selected solid tumor types.
