    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Part 1: Observation of DLT [Cycle 1 (4 weeks)]

      Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as a clinically significant adverse event or abnormal laboratory value occurring during Cycle 1 (Days 1-28) during both monotherapy and Combination dose-escalation portions of Part 1.
