iintune-1 Trial Summary

This trial is studying TAK-676 given alone or together with pembrolizumab to see how well it works in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other parts of the body.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who haven't responded to standard treatments, or can't tolerate them, may join this trial. They should be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), have not received certain vaccines recently, and must not have active hepatitis or heart issues. Smokers and those with specific lung conditions cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing TAK-676 alone and combined with Pembrolizumab to find the highest dose patients can take without severe side effects. It includes a phase where doses increase (dose escalation) followed by a phase that tests the chosen dose more broadly (dose expansion). Some will also receive chemotherapy drugs like Platinum and 5-fluorouracil.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of TAK-676 include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, digestive problems, blood disorders, increased risk of infections, and potential organ inflammation. Pembrolizumab might cause immune-related adverse effects such as skin rash or thyroid dysfunction.

Group I: Part 3B (Expansion and Dose Optimization Phase in CRC): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab in MSS/pMMR CRCExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Dazostinag 5.0 mg, infusion, IV, will be administered in participants with microsatellite stable/mismatch repair proficient (MSS/pMMR) CRC at the identified dose level from Part 1 on Days 1, 8, and 15 in a 21-day cycle. along with pembrolizumab 200 mg infusion, IV, Q3W. Dose optimization may be performed in this phase.
Group II: Part 2B (SCCHN Dose Expansion Phase): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab + ChemotherapyExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Dazostinag 5.0 mg, infusion, IV, will be administered in participants with SCCHN at the identified dose level from Part 1 on Days 1, 8, and 15 in a 21-day cycle. Pembrolizumab infusion, IV will be administered at 200 mg Q3W. Platinum-based chemotherapy comprising the combination of carboplatin (target area under the curve of 5 mg/mL/minute[AUC 5]) or cisplatin (100 milligrams per square meter [mg/m^2] Day 1 of each treatment cycle), and 5-fluorouracil ([5-FU]; 1000 mg/m^2 per day for 4 consecutive days) every 3 weeks for up to 6 cycles.
Group III: Part 2A (SCCHN CPS ≥ 1 Dose Expansion and Optimization Phase): Dazostinag + PembrolizumabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Dazostinag 5.0 mg, infusion, IV, will be administered in participants with squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN) at the identified dose level from Part 1 on Days 1, 8, and 15 in a 21-day cycle along with pembrolizumab 200 mg infusion, IV, Q3W. Dose optimization may be performed in this phase.
Group IV: Part 1B (Combination Dose Escalation Phase): Dazostinag + PembrolizumabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Dazostinag escalating doses (0.2 mg and above) in combination with pembrolizumab 200 mg, infusion, IV, once weekly on Days 1, 8 and 15 in each 21-day treatment cycle. Pembrolizumab 200 mg will be administered 1 hour prior to Dazostinag once every 3 weeks (Q3W). The dosing will be initiated when at least two dose levels (DLs) of Part 1A have been evaluated.
Group V: Part 1 (Monotherapy Dose Escalation Phase): Dazostinag Safety Lead-in + Dazostinag SA [Part 1A]Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Safety Lead-in: Dazostinag 0.1 mg, infusion, intravenously (IV), once weekly, on Days 1, 8 and 15 in 21-day treatment cycles. Dazostinag single agent (SA) Dose Escalation (Part 1A): Dazostinag SA, infusion, IV, once weekly on Days 1, 8 and 15 in each 21-day treatment cycles with escalating doses (0.2 mg and above). The dosing will be initiated in the Dazostinag SA Dose Escalation Phase based on the available safety and tolerability data from the Safety Lead-in.
Group VI: Japan Safety Lead-in Dazostinag ± PembrolizumabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Dazostinag 5.0 mg, infusion, IV, once on Day 1 in Cycle 0 (cycle length=7 days) in Japanese participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Following the 7-day Cycle 0, participants who do not develop any DLT in Cycle 0 will be administered Dazostinag on Days 1, 8, and 15 of a 21-day cycle in combination with pembrolizumab administered Q3W, IV, in Cycle 1. If no DLTs are observed, study treatment will start with Dazostinag in combination with pembrolizumab administered on Day 1 of each 21-day treatment cycle. Additional dose levels of Dazostinag (such as 3.5 mg or 7.0 mg and higher) in combination with pembrolizumab (200 mg, Q3W) may be explored in the Safety Lead in.
Group VII: Experimental: Part 3A (Expansion Phase in CRC): Dazostinag + Pembrolizumab in MSI-H/dMMR CRCExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Dazostinag 5.0 mg, infusion, IV, will be administered in participants with microsatellite instability-high /mismatch repair deficient (MSI-H/dMMR) colorectal cancer (CRC) at the identified dose level from Part 1 on Days 1, 8, and 15 in a 21-day cycle along with pembrolizumab 200 mg infusion, IV, Q3W.
