Study Summary

This trial is testing a new combination cancer treatment to see how well it works and what the optimal dose is. The new drug, elimusertib, works by blocking a substance produced by the body that is important for the growth of tumor cells. Pembrolizumab is an immunologic checkpoint blocker that promotes an immune response against the tumor.

Eligible Conditions

Group III: Dose expansion cohort 5a of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced pancreatic cancer and without DDR deficiency alterations as described above, who have not received prior treatment with immunotherapy. VUS of the DDR gene alterations are eligible. Participants with known MSI-H cannot be included.
Group IV: Dose expansion cohort 5 of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced pancreatic cancer, known to be DDR deficiency biomarker-positive (incl. ATM mutation) and/or positive for ATM loss who have not received prior treatment with immunotherapy. Participants with known MSI-H cannot be included.
Group V: Dose expansion cohort 4a of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced NSCLC and without DDR deficiency alterations as described above. VUS of the DDR gene alterations are eligible. Participants must have progressed on treatment with an anti-PD-1/L1 mAb administered either as monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies.
Group VI: Dose expansion cohort 4 of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) known to be DDR deficiency biomarker-positive (incl. ATM mutation) and/or positive for ATM loss. Participants must have progressed on treatment with an anti-PD-1/L1 mAb administered either as monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies.
Group VII: Dose expansion cohort 3a of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced GC/GEJ cancer and without DDR deficiency alterations as described above. Variants of unknown significance (VUS) of the DDR gene alterations are eligible. Participants must have progressed on treatment with an anti-PD-1/L1 mAb administered either as monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies.
Group VIII: Dose expansion cohort 3 of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced Gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer (GC/GEJ) known to be DDR deficiency biomarker-positive (incl. ATM mutation) and/or positive for ATM loss. Participants must have progressed on treatment with an anti-PD-1/L1 mAb administered either as monotherapy, or in combination with other checkpoint inhibitors or other therapies.
Group IX: Dose expansion cohort 2b of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced CRC, known to be DDR deficiency biomarker -positive (except ATM loss/mutation) who have not received prior treatment with immunotherapy. Participants with known MSI-H cannot be included.
Group X: Dose expansion cohort 2a of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced Colorectal cancer (CRC) known to be positive for ATM loss and/or ATM deleterious alterations who have not received prior treatment with immunotherapy. Participants with known MSI-H cannot be included.
Group XI: Dose expansion cohort 1b of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative BC, known to be DDR deficiency biomarker-positive (except ATM loss/mutation) who have not received prior treatment with immunotherapy. Participants with known MSI-H cannot be included.
Group XII: Dose expansion cohort 1a of ElimusertibExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with advanced hormone-receptor-positive, Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative breast cancer (HER2-negative BC), known to be positive for Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) loss and/or ATM deleterious alterations who have not received prior treatment with immunotherapy. Participants with known microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) cannot be included
