Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see if it's safe and effective in treating advanced solid tumors. Participants will visit the site regularly and receive treatments, with tests to check safety and cancer progression.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced solid tumors that have worsened or didn't respond to standard treatments can join this trial. They must be in relatively good health, able to follow the study plan, and not pregnant. People with certain infections like HIV or hepatitis B/C can join if their condition is under control. Those who've had recent cancer treatments or major surgeries, active lung disease, severe allergies, or are on high-dose steroids cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests KVA12123 alone and combined with Pembrolizumab for safety and proper dosage against various advanced cancers. Participants will receive KVA12123 every two weeks and Pembrolizumab every six weeks while undergoing regular scans, blood tests, physical exams, and heart function tests to monitor treatment effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions at the injection site, fatigue, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems. There may also be immune-related issues affecting organs like the lungs (pneumonitis), liver (hepatitis), intestines (colitis), hormone glands (endocrinopathies) among others.
