Trial Design

6Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: AO-176 Dose ExpansionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Once the MTD/RP2D has been established, tumor-specific dose expansion cohorts will be recruited to further assess safety and evaluate preliminary efficacy of AO-176.
Group II: AO-176 Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each dose escalation cohort will initially recruit 3 patients to receive AO-176 in a standard 3+3 design; cohorts will be expanded in the event of a DLT.
Group III: AO-176 + Pembrolizumab Dose ExpansionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Once the MTD/RP2D has been established, tumor-specific dose expansion cohorts will be recruited to further assess safety and evaluate preliminary efficacy of AO-176 + pembrolizumab.
Group IV: AO-176 + Pembrolizumab Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each dose escalation cohort will initially recruit 3 patients to receive AO-176 and pembrolizumab in a standard 3+3 design; cohorts will be expanded in the event of a DLT.
Group V: AO-176 + Paclitaxel Dose ExpansionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Once the MTD/RP2D has been established, tumor-specific dose expansion cohorts will be recruited to further assess safety and evaluate preliminary efficacy of AO-176 + paclitaxel.
Group VI: AO-176 + Paclitaxel Dose EscalationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each dose escalation cohort will initially recruit 3 patients to receive AO-176 and paclitaxel in a standard 3+3 design; cohorts will be expanded in the event of a DLT.
